This is my second one. The blue gasket always rots and they do not offer a replacement through Garmin. You buy an expensive heart rate monitor so it will last and you can replace the batteries, but it really sucks for a swim specific heart rate monitor that you can't get a replacement gasket. There is no direct way to contact Garmin, I have emailed them several times over the last couple of years with no response. No replacement parts and zero customer service. You can see what was left at the end of my triathlon in the tiny blue pieces of the blue gasket. same thing with both that I have purchased.

Works excellently with my Garmin Fenix watch. Very useful in establishing lactate threshold and planning workouts accordingly.

The heart rate monitor works perfectly in all environments! The strap is comfortable and doesn’t rub or cause chaffing. Additionally, the strap is easy to clean and maintain.

The heart rate monitor was a great addition to my Garmin 530 Edge. It interfaces reliably to my bike mount 530 or when the 530 is carried in a pack. The sensor belt is easily adjustable (set it once and leave it), comfortable, and the sensor provides a wealth of information on my work outs to the 530. I've used other mobile recording sensors and this one is solid with no known drop outs or faulty measurements and on my rides or work outs needs no physical adjustment. That's a big plus not to have it slide out of position and interrupt your work out.A good solid product. Works better than expected.

I bought this chest strap heart rate monitor to replace an older Garmin version. Paired it to a number of Garmin devices including a Fenix 5 and 6 watch and Edge 500 and 1000 Cyclometers. No issues with pairing, connecting during an activity and the additional functionality to collect data when swimming and the additional running metrics make the strap a joy for those into tracking their workout data. I have found the capture of heart rate to be consistent and accurate. It's comfortable to wear and easy to care for as long as you follow the instructions. I train 6 days a week so the strap gets used hard and overall other than a few wrinkles in the strap and perhaps a little wear on the band it looks almost new. I have had to change the battery a few times but the connection with other Garmin devices is nice in that it notifies you when the battery is low (Fenix 6). At this point folks are probably questioning the 3 star review. The three stars is due to the fact that after 7 months of use it started recording information inaccurately and stopping recording information altogether after I changed out the battery (and tried troubleshooting tips from the Garmin forum to no avail). Hand-washed in Ivory dish detergent every week, check. Rinsed out between activities in plain water, check. Red seal intact, check, battery in correctly, check, all screws tightened, check, but no connection to any device. Even tried deleting from the device and reconnecting. I will concur with other reviewers, for a device costing over $100 when purchased last year and only 7 months of use, I feel a bit cheated. And with Garmin's new chest heart rate monitors (unlike the old) the sensor is integrated into the strap, no disconnecting the sensor and replacing a worn strap or buying just the sensor, it's all or nothing. I am going to give Garmin another shot here, maybe that's a mistake but I do like the additional running metrics, and the swim recording capabilities without the need for yet another device.

I have the HRM run, and the other dual sport and regular heart rate monitors from Garmin.Not to mention some other brands. My HRM run lasted about two years before it stopped working. (Sad tines).Based on reviews I opted for this model and so far it's my favorite heart rate monitor I have used. Super comfortable, more durable than the HRM run, and it stores data so you don't have to carry your phone or even the watch if you don't want to.Plus it works in the pool, or in the water while swimming.

I am a novice triathlete and my garmin fenix 3hr wasn’t giving accurate HR readings. I am primarily training in zone 2 with some higher HR intervals so it is really important to keep my eye on my HR. This monitor works great. The frustration of inaccurate HR is gone. It pairs easily with Garmin Connect App and watch. Cleaning and maintenance is easy. I’ve been using at least 45 mins everyday since October and battery still seems fine.

Been on run and saddle for quite some time and wanted to do HR based training. Easily pairs up with other Garmin devices, and gives a loads of run analytics for the number nerds and professionals.Great device if you are seriously looking for improving run times /speed /cadence/HR training.If you are just looking for tracking HR whilst running there are cheaper options in the market.The build quality is great and the belt is quite durable and much better than Garmin HRM Dual.

I have a Garmin Fenix 5 Plus, use it every day. Absolutely love it. I bought this HRM because while doing certain workouts the wrist HRM basically doesn't work. (fun fact if you swing your arms like you were running the wrist HRM can pick up your active HRM much better)So I do lots of mixed workouts, Crossfit, rowing, swimming, running, sprints, weights, MTB. So far this HRM is able to record all my data perfectly. Across all of those activities. So if you like training and love getting good data, buy this!Foot note I have had it for about 3 months and already had to change the HRM battery. I used it about 4-10 hours a week. I think the battery is supposed to last longer than that but o well. Changed it out and was good as new.

Having used these things for many years, and experienced pretty much all the difficulties that people have run into with them, this chest strap works best. Besides doing all the normal sports such as running, biking, and skiing, it also does swimming quite well, just so long as it is covered - flowing water between strap and chest messes up the measurements. Being a retired guy, my heart rate pattern is not the easiest to measure, which did cause some grief with prior versions of chest straps. And it really doesn't record high intensity well with wrist-based optical readers, but this version works very well.
