The Accusplit moves me, November 20, 2009

This simple device moves me morning, noon and night--so simple just clip on and your on your way to 10,000 steps a day. I have been doing this for a year now and feel I am in the best shape of my life--I… just turned 67 and and most days hit 10,000 steps or more. Also I use them as gifts -there is no set up just clip on and walk. Great for the electronically challanged.-2000 steps = about 1 mile so I am walking about 5 miles a day-I clip it on every morning and as I said "It moves me."

Walking across (virtual) America., November 12, 2009

I have bought 4 other pedometers in the past. FINALLY one that is simple and works well. It has a cover so it does not accidentally get reset. This is Great. B*

Does What It Says, October 22, 2009

Counts your steps pretty accurately, but its up to you to walk;) Good for the price, and the extra attachment so it doesn't get lost is a plus. It saved me from loosing it a couple times.

This thing rattles!, September 2, 2009

I had an Omron pedometer before, but wanted to just count my steps, not all the other stuff, plus a longer lasting battery, so I thought I'd try this pedometer, which is well-reviewed. Seems to count steps… fine, but the pendulum rattles. I don't see any other comments about that in the reviews, which is surprising to me, because when I called Accusplit about it, they told me that, yes, the pendulum in the AE120XL does rattle. Hmmmm.... Not acceptable to me. Sending it back.

Most accurate!!, August 1, 2009

This is the most accurate pedometer I have ever purchased! As long as you put it on your belt along the line of your knee, it will be accurate every time you take a step! I have had many different brands in the past but nothing can compare to this one. I only wish the cover was see through so I wouldn't have to open it to view how many steps I've walked.

This is a summary of a study done at the University of Tennessee. Twenty testers wore 12 pedometers while walking, and their step counts were compared to the control pedometer, the Yamax Digi-Walker SW-200. The Yamax Digi-Walker SW-200 was shown to be one of the most accurate.

3. NEA Today

Scott Crouter, a university professor of exercise and health science, evaluates five pedometers. He praises the Yamax Digi-Walker SW-200 for its low cost and says this pedometer is the best choice for people of "normal weight." An editorial panel reports that it is easy to use, but is also too sensitive. A slight jostle registered as a step.

Wendy Bumgardner, About.com's guide to walking, reviews 10 pedometers including the Yamax Digi-Walker SW 200. She says it is easy to use and a good choice if you only need to know your basic step count. Bumgardner's main complaint is that the belt clip is made of plastic.
