Love the HRM 200!
This chest strap is perfect for recording heart rate during runs/walks. The wrist based sensor is so unreliable and always recorded my heart rate much higher than it actually was, thus throwing off my entire metrics. With the HRM 200, there is no sudden spikes, cadence lock and temperature fussiness that I experienced with my watch. The chest strap was a very good bu...

Connection Issues
There's no way to discern a HRM from other HRMs while connecting to watch. For people that lives in cities and apartments, this is an issue. Very clunky set up process

Works well / more accurate than wrist reading
Greatly improves accuracy of heart rate reporting. Slightly confusing setup instructions - hard to tell if it is working vs. wrist monitoring. Overall, I am quite happy with the results.
I have low BP and I am not sure if that impacts HR reporting - I have noticed that the wrist function shorts me of my cardio results, and am really happy to have the more accurate HR ...

Out with the old...new with the new
Finally after about 13years my HRM1G monitor refused to work and retired to the circular haven bin. The old model was absolutely bullet proof and comfortable...but tech limited. Being cheap I purchased the lowest costing HR monitor and I'm not sorry. It gives me all the 411 I need. Only thing I don't like is the fastener...and that is personal preference. I just liked t...

Accurate but too big.
It’s a lot more accurate than my wrist HR monitor. Beware the M-XL size it too big for me and I’m a normal size woman not very thin.

Good product for the price.
I'm happy with it for the price. Has minimal features but lets me know when it needs a new battery, which is what I wanted. Seems to record heart rate correctly.

Poor reliability
I’m on the third unit, the two previous delaminated and the return/exchange process is difficult. Also the rep that processed the last return was rude and insulting to me. That said, when it works it works good

Great product but maybe doesn't do what I need
It works well and is comfortable compared to similar things I've worn in the past. The only real downside is have is i cant figure out how to show live heart rate in the garmin connect app and even though I can pair the meta quest 3 with it I cant find a way to see the heart rate on the headset. I found a work around using a 3rd party app and using the pass-through mode...

Be sure to read all the support suggestions
I have had two Garmin HRMs previously. I bought this because I constantly got inconsistent and erroneous readings with the other two. A few months after I purchased the HRM 200 I had the same experience. My HR would go from 125 to 67 bpm. I tried all the suggestions on the website and finally called support. The woman I spoke to checked my readings and was willing ...

Good luck getting it to sync
My Garmin Venu S2 was not measuring my heart accurately when I used a recumbent bike when I couldn’t bike for real outside. This device worked great after over an hour of trying to get it to function. The instructions from Garmin did not work. After repeated failed attempts, it was Reddit users who explained how they got it to connect. Now, it works it’s fine, but it...

Simple to use, compatible w Garmin devices used
I first bought this less than 2 mo ago to use with my Venu 2 watch provide me with a better HRM while cycling and walking than the one built into the watch provides. The HRM-200 worked great with Connect while using the watch for recording everything else during my Activities, and HR abnormalities no longer were presentpresent . Then I installed an Edge 1030 cyclometer ...

Solid upgrades
Running metrics are fun data points (stride length, L/R balance, cadence, etc.) without having to carry a phone or wear any other devices. Strap quality and sensors are definitely better quality than my old Garmin HR strap. Haven’t tried it with rugby yet but excited to give it a try on the pitch this season. My only real issue is that I’ve had a couple heart rate lock ...

heart rate monitor???
The only thing I want is checking my heart rate when indoor-cycling.
The one thing this device doesn't show is - my heart rate!
The thing it doesn't show for watching is indoor-cycling. All it shows are steps and challenges and stuff - things I don't want or need!!
What a stupid device!!!

Simple and effective
Does everything I need a HRM to do - provide steady data and fade away after I put it on my chest. If you need more features, there are other more expensive models, but for a low-profile, comfortable, affordable example to pair with your Garmin watch - this is it!

unable to connect it to the Garmin Fenix 7
I bought it less than a year a month ago and this is my second HRM 200, that said this one has not worked at all. I have done all the recommended things to connect it and have not done so. Very disappointed!
