It is uncanny how this unit tracks the exact number of steps taken. Setup was minimal and very easy. The battery saving shut off works great, no need for an off/on switch. Small and light enough to carry in a pocket. What makes this unit a must buy if you are interested in a pedometer is the accuracy. Once you know the length of your walking stride, which you enter during setup, this unit is dead on the money. You can hold it in your hand and watch the stride count increase every time your foot hits the pavement. If the count is off, you didn’t enter the correct length. The advertised 97% to 99% accuracy is not an exaggeration. This unit is like a metronome, it doesn’t miss a step. It is eerie to watch it in action. The only feature I would have enjoyed is a wired/wireless capability to upload the stats to a computer or website. Do not let that one item impede your decision in purchasing the Power Walker. Even while driving a car, it knows the difference between vehicle movement and a walking subject. I drove 12 miles to work, the stride count and mileage did not increase.

The price is right, the unit tracks the important statistics, such as mileage, number of steps, calories burned, and more. The unit saves 30 days of data, and 30 weeks of summarized data. You can’t go wrong with the Power Walker. I have a phone app which acts as a pedometer, which I used as a comparison against the Power Walker. The app skips steps when it increases. The Power Walker does not miss a single step. It is very impressive. Plus the automatic reset of stats at 2AM is pretty sweet.

This is definitely a unit to own if you are seeking a method of measuring steps per day, which in turn will give you incentive to walk more.

I researched several pedometers before I purchased this product. I definitely made the right choice! It’s a great little item. It’s small & compact & is very accurate. It can be used inside a pants pocket & clipped to your belt. I wear mine everyday to keep track of my steps. It’s so small that it’s never uncomfortable. I have recommended it to 2 of my friends already.

Purchased this yamax unit from amazon for my wife after getting myself an 18 dollar one that had no name, sorry setup instructions and we just didn’t like it. Being for the wife I decided to spend a little more money than mine was. (You know how that is guys.) Received in good shape in the time frame given and we both think it’s a great pedometer. It has a name unlike my 18 dollar one, it is made in Japan not China, it is small, slim, has big bright numbers, good setup instructions for setting the clock, stride, distance,and etc. and the wife loves it and I do to. I want to trade units with her but she won’t do that so guess I’ll have to just buy another one. Yes, I do recommend this Yamax EX-510. spend the money and get a good one.
