Very accurate!

I've had this for almost a month now. The first one I got had a defective food pod. One quick phone call to backcountry and an exchange was set up. They even paid for the return shipping. Great customer service.
Anyway, I was skeptical at first that it would actually be able to measure an accurate distance. After a few runs with it to figure out how to use it and what settings I wanted, I did two foot pod calibration runs. After calibration it was accurate to about a 100th of a mile. Heart rate sensor adapts closely to the chest, unlike the older plastic strapped ones. Great for skinnier people like me. My only real complaint about it is that the buttons can be a bit annoying to press. you have to push them down too far for my liking and there is no definite click to let you know it's down enough. Not a big deal just an annoyance.
