About Mio
The story of Mio began in 1999 when it was created by entrepreneur and mother of three, Liz Dickinson. Like many of us, Liz balances family and career, leaving little time for fitness. After several unsuccessful attempts to achieve her fitness goals and shed the pregnancy weight-gain of her third child, Liz turned to a personal trainer for advice. While working with a trainer, Liz realized the key to getting in shape and staying in shape is to practice smart eating habits, monitoring calorie intake, and using a heart rate monitor to ensure that she exercises at the right level. Liz realized there wasn't a product available on the market that would easily help her follow her trainer's advice. Liz didn't have time to read labels and carry a calorie journal in her purse, nor did she have much patience for the uncomfortable chest strap she had to wear to get her heart rate. She knew there had to be a better way, so Liz used her technology and marketing savvy to create Mio, the world's first heart rate monitor to work without a chest strap. And, it didn't stop with just heart rate, as Mio also has a patented calorie management system that offers a straightforward approach to managing your diet. With the help of Mio and a balanced diet, Liz was able to shed those unwanted pounds and gain the benefits that come with improved fitness: more energy, more vitality, and less stress, and help many others do the same with the creation of Mio's products.

Troubles when opening case April 30, 2008
The watch works best for measurements while standing still. Easier to get a reading than even my old Casio which I loved and had for years. Would not advise getting the strapless version for those who wish to acquire measurments while running or biking. Unfortunately the watch stopped working when I went to replace the battery. Dis- and reassembly not easy. Seemed alsmost impossible to retain any water-proofing in doing so since it was very difficult to get o-ring back in place.
I'd rate the features a 5 (get strap option for runners)
and relabilty a 2
ok, a little hard to get a reading December 3, 2007

I dont like holding the sensors while moving it would be nice if it could just do it via your wrist.
 Problems arise after first battery change September 17, 2007
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I purchased a mio watch a couple of years ago. When the first battery went out I took it to a jewelry store in the mall to get battery changed. Watch was never the same. Jewelry store during battery change stated the board had a malfunction with it. Contacted Amazon replacement was received. Guess what same problem with different jewelry store when the battery required replacing. This tells me the problem is with the Mio not who is replacing the battery. I loved the Mio while it was working. However the same problem that arose with two different Mio watches has left a nasty taste in my mouth. I will not purchase another Mio again.
 poor functionality for the price July 24, 2007

Expecting the basics + a heart rate monitor? Forget it. This is a stripped down watch with an extra, occasionally useful gadget.
Mio Wave Heart Rate Watch junk!!! April 26, 2007
6 out of 6 found this review helpful
I had a heart rate watch a long time ago that did not work well. I thought they may have improved over the years, but I was so wrong. I would say if all you do is sit on the sofa and move very little then this watch will work for you. If on the other hand you want to work out then save you money on this watch. When biking I can't get a reading at all. When I bike on a stationary bike I get readings of 196 to 205 bpm and never changes. Even after am done and have cooled down it still is around 196 bpm. I was 2 days pass the 30 days to return to Amazon so they would not take it back. I called Mio and got a message that it would be faster to hang up and they would call back with in 5 days, what a joke. I called again and the same thing, they have a good thing going there and saving a lot of money from not replacing the junk they sell. Very, very upset with this watch and the non service they give..none! Buy this watch at your own risk or if you have money to throw away. I gave it a 1 star only becouse there was no zero to put in. JUNK JUNK JUNK!!!!!!!
