Omron Pedometer HJ-322U {#Review and #Giveaway} CLOSED

Compensated

You may have read that I am walking a 5K in December.  You may have also read that I am determined to lose 30 lbs by February.  I had downloaded the Endomondo app to my phone, but walking with my phone is not always practical.  So when Omron sent me the HJ-322 Pedometer, I was excited to put it to work!

What I like:

  • It’s relatively small and is easily hidden on my jeans or bra strap!
  • You don’t HAVE to use the clip.  But it is easy to clip it and forget it.
  • I love the battery saving mode!  You may think it’s not counting, but it IS!  And, it’s really easy to activate the screen again.
  • Watching how many steps I take makes me want to increase it every day.  For me, this pedometer is equivalent to motivation.
  • I like being able to compare the last 7 days worth of steps (or mileage) on the device.

What I’d change: 

  • I would like to see a better clip.  Some days I have a difficult time clipping the pedometer to my clothes.
  • I set up my pedometer at about 4:30pm on the day I got it, so the 24 hour clock on mine is from 4:30pm – 4:30am.  That’s probably me.  User error!
  • Determining my Stride Length was confusing.  And I am still not sure I did it correctly!

Would I recommend the HJ-322U?  YES!  Absolutely!  The pros far out-weigh the cons.

    I get active by walking every evening either outside or on my treadmill. I did Zumba last year and loved it but they changed the times and I couldnt go anymore

    I really need to commit to being active. I chase kids around all day but honestly don’t do much else. Yet!
