 A thorough waste of money March 15, 2008
I echo the sentiments of those who found this item to be all but completely unreliable insofar as providing an accurate count of steps taken. I found myself actually resorting to counting off (in my head) a series of 100 steps, and then comparing the pedometer count to the actual count, thinking that "ok, while it may be off, at least it will be consistently off, and with a little arithmetic I can figure out how many steps I actually took." Well, it soon became apparent that it was not only off, it was off to wildly varying degrees, ranging anywhere between 50% and 90%. In short, in practical terms it became useless; that is until it stopped working altogether (not displaying any count at all) and became actually useless.
A waste -- an absolute waste.
 Excellent November 12, 2007
The Sportline 330 Electronic Step Pedometer is amazingly accurate and dependable. Though the clip is a little clumsy to use, it's accuracy and dependability make up for it.
Battery replacement challenge November 10, 2007

If the complaints about inaccuracy don't dissuade you, let me add another reason to reject this product. Battery replacement is enough of a hassle that you may want to smash the device to smithereens.
A company is short-sighted to market a shoddy product. People tend to reject everything a company makes once they've had a bad experience. If I'm looking for a $100 heart rate watch, I'm sure not going to consider any products by Sportline.
Look Around & Get Something Better January 4, 2007

I purchased this pedometer from REI because I wanted to know only how one day's walking compares with the next. This model should have fit that expectation exactly. I did not want numerous features telling me everything else, which would make the use of the pedometer more difficult. I was disappointed from the start.
I tested the unit by walking around the block, counting the steps and comparing my count to the number on the readout. To my amazement, it was less than one percent off. I had heard that anything within 15 percent was acceptable. My disappointment came in the "routine" wearing of the unit the next day. First, it must be worn clipped on clothing or the belt at waist line, like most models. But the readout is then upside-down for the wearer. It is very difficult to glance down and check the number. Like most digital readouts, the 2 and the 5 as well as the 6 and the 9 are easily confused if trying to read upside-down. This means taking the unit off if I wanted to look at it, which brought about the second problem. The reset button is fairly large and nearly impossible to avoid touching when removing or installing the unit onto my belt. At the end of a long walk, I glance down to see that I have accumulated 4 digits of steps, but removing the unit to read the number erased the total. I was disappointed enough in the product that I returned it to the store for a full refund, with no problem. I'm glad that I shop at REI for no hassle returns and knowledgeable staff. Very little thought about practical use went into the design of this product by the manufacturer. There are better models for the same or similar cost.
Useless April 25, 2006

I also wanted just a basic "count the steps" type pedometer, so I bought one of these recently. It has proved to be totally useless as it will reset itself to 0 steps at seemingly random intervals. This makes my "total" for the day meaningless. Apparently only very light pressure is required on the reset button to activate it...
