Reliable and Sticky

After many years of salt and sweat my first transmitter finally failed. Don't know if it was merely the snap-on unit or the strap itself, but I grabbed a new one anyway when BTD had a recent sale. The newest one seems to stay in place even better than the last one, which is key. The very first units from years back were stiff and slippery and often slid down if not cinched uncomfortably tight.

Thank you for your feedback.

Comfort and reliability

This is my wife�s first chest strap HR monitor. It fits her well and gives her accurate legible HR data on her Garmin. She tried using her Apple Watch but it was too hard to read while riding, less accurate and couldn�t be displayed on her Garmin.

Thank you for your feedback.

A patchy start, but works fine now.

Ordered this for my partner. It paired quickly with his Edge 520, but then would read HR pretty inconsistently the first few rides even after putting a little water on the strap. After 5+ rides, it works fine now. Kind of bizarre considering that I never had an issue with my older Garmin HR monitor.

Thank you for your feedback.

Luv Garmin products, the screws on the Garmin Dual just broke, all 4.

We have been a Garmin family for years. I use my Dual HRM with a Garmin Edge for cycling. I purchased the Dual HRM for spin classes and noticed that every so often my heart rate was dropping out. A check of the HRM revealed that all four (4) screws had cracks around the plastic and was being held in place by the snaps and the strap.

Thank you for your feedback.

The new one is great. Too many miles on the first one.

The initial monitor has seen its best day. It was getting a little ragged and I could not adjust it to maintain good contact. So a new one was in order. Good price, quick shipping and it arrived very quickly. A good product

and a good company to do business with.

Thank you for your feedback.

Stuck at 73 bpm

I've had three of these now (one was the older version). The last two duals that I have stopped working after a few days and was returned for one that worked for about a year. Both of them stopped working in the same way, that is the heart rate sent was stuck at 73 bpm. No adjustments of the straps helped. I was glad Garmin replaced the first one for free, but now I doubt they will replace the second one since I've had it for about a year.

Thank you for your feedback.

Garmin HRM-Dual Heart Rate Monitor works well.

The Garmin HRM-Dual Heart Rate Monitor works well. Read the instruction for usage and care. Must be wet for it to work. Connects fast to my Edge 830 and Zwift.

So far, works grea!

I wear the HRM for cycling. I have worn it 4 time and it works great.

My main reason for purchasing the HRM is, because I had a heart attack and I need to keep an eye on my heart rate. So far, its been working great for me.

Thank you for your feedback.

No problems so far

Has worked great so far with no issues. Switched to this after my polar h10 started bugging out. Which was after my h7 stopped working. Been very happy with it, only annoying thing is tightening it and it hooks on the right side of your chest which feels awkward for myself being right handed.

Thank you for your feedback.

Great device and easy to use

I got this on sale, and it was the best decision I have made in a while. It is more reliable and accurate than the wrist based sensor I was using on long rides. It connects to both my Fenix watch to do my ride records and my cheap bike computer I use to keep myself from looking at my wrist all the time. This has made HR zone training much easier. The strap is very comfortable and I haven't had any bunching problems with it at all.

Thank you for your feedback.

Highly unreliable

This does NOT accurately measure heart rate, I�m either at 170bpm or zero. The only time it is correct is when it�s passing through my current heart rate. The battery changing, as another rater noticed is difficult at best. I�m thinking the screws are ultrasonically staked in place during manufacture, I can�t rate it as a value as it�, IMO, doesn�t work.

Thank you for your feedback.

Good product has worked with out problems

I use this while cycling, provides information so I can look at a graph to see where my heart rate was during the ride. I can also see live data while riding, however i don't currently use that information in ride. Its a good product at a good price.

Thank you for your feedback.

Nice and effective HRM

This is an updated version of my old Garmin HRM that bit the dust. It has a more comfortable strap and it works consistently each and every time. I pair it to my Bontrager Edge 1030 computer with no trouble.

Thank you for your feedback.

Be exceedingly careful changing the battery

Works fine on the HRM side, no complaints, but the battery case is held in by four screws, firmly emplaced with Loctite. It was all too easy to strip the screw heads. Use a #00 screwdriver and be careful!

Thank you for your feedback.
