Ottimi materiali, ottima la funzionalità (non sbaglia un coloo) ottimo il comfort: una volta indossata non la senti addosso. Ho letti recensioni di persone che si sono lamentate che la cintura si usura presto…a queste persone dico che dipende da vari fattori. In primis la manutenzikne: va lavata secondo le prescrizione della Polar. Altro fattore importante è l’acidità della pelle di ciascuno e anche del relativo sudore e la quantità di sudorazione . Se si ha una eccessiva sudorazione ed è acida così come anche la pelle allora la manutenzione va intesificata. Ovvio che gli acidi più forti di una particolare pelle e/o sudore e la quantità prodotta dal corpo va incidere sulla vita della cintura poiché essa assorbe certe “scorie” subendone gli effetti negativi sulle sue varie parti. La mia cintura precedente andava ancora bene dopo 3 anni di vita e di sudate tra corsa e crossfit, l’ho dovuta sostituire perché è andata persa. Perciò trattatela bene e lei vi ripagherà con efficienza ed affidabilità.

I am a former Polar user who converted to a Garmin 910XT a couple years ago. I never liked the Garmin heart rate strap. It chafed and I frequently would get dropouts where the readings would go haywire or disappear. I tried replacing the battery on the transmitter with no luck. A tip on a Garmin forum lead me to this strap.
Out of the box, the strap fit an old Polar transmitter of mine perfectly. However, when I tried to put the Garmin one on, it kept popping off the buttons. The size was correct, but the transmitter would not stay on for more than a few seconds.
Like other reviewers have mentioned, the issue is the hard rubber housings around the snaps on the strap. They sit relatively higher than the housings on the Garmin strap, indeed, they are taller than the metal snaps by a few mm. So what was happening was that my Garmin transmitter would compress the rubber housings to snap in, but the housings would soon spring back to pop the transmitter off the snaps.
The solution for me was a small pair of scissors and a few minutes of work to cut the height of the housings down below the tops of the snaps. Mine doesn’t look pretty, but the Garmin transmitter now fits perfectly. It has been working well the few times I have used it on runs.
The strap is very comfy. I’ll actually get some use out of my old Polar transmitter too since my gym still has Polar-only treadmills for days that I am running indoors.

This review is more about Polar customer service than the product.
The V800, the H7, the H7 strap, and the Loop are great products – Customer Service is NOT.
The strap is soft, supple and stays on. I purchased this replacement strap because I was having problems with the H7 and customer service said it was the strap. It was not the strap, it was the H7 transmitter. But, I had hundreds of work outs with the H7 and strap and they work great.
However, I felt that I needed to post my feedback to Polar to let everyone on amazon.com know about my customer service experiences.
So here are all my customer service issues below.
To Polar:
BTW – this exact feedback is going on heartratemonitorsusa.com, amazon.com, AND dcrainmaker.com and any where else I can find to put it.
Poorly and improperly staffed – no information about doing inventory so I would wait on the phone for 20 minutes to have your voice service tell me that someone would call me back which they never did – waste of 20 minutes – this happened 4 separate times.
End of year update broke automatic GPS start location which I have reported 2 times – the first time the CSR did not record the error message – found this out when I called back in about a separate issue and decided to do a follow-up.
The error message is as follows – “A. lap location not saved. No GPS data available.” I assume that A. means “automatic “. So when Automatic Lap is chosen in a sport profile and set to Location – this error message pops up. Never happened before the update.
Server maintenance was not re-announced after an announcement saying it would be delayed, so I spent an hour and did a botched factory reset on the day the servers went down because the error message in Polar FlowSync said that it COULDN’T sync with the V800 – nothing about the servers being down – I thought I had an issue with the watch. You have our emails – send out a notification for gosh sakes. How hard is that to do? It is the little things that make the difference.
You “lost” my warranty repair replacement watch band (sitting on a shelf per the CSR) – so I had to zip tie my watch onto my wrist for almost a month. I would not have know about this unless I would not have called in to follow-up because I was waiting for so long for it to arrive in the mail. I was told 3-5 business days and I waited an extra week because of the holidays. I you would have sent it out the first day I called (which you could have) it would have been here before the new year.
You “repaired” my HR7 improperly – in fact you didn’t repair it – you sent back a new strap instead of replacing transmitter – when I received the unit back, it still did not work (after almost 4 weeks) which is totally unacceptable.
Poor technical support delayed my return of the unit for a week – the CSR REFUSED to listen to me about my understanding that it was the transmitter and NOT THE STRAP.
Luckily I had decided to buy a new Polar HR7 from a store – I did this before I sent the unit in to be repaired. And guess what – the new unit worked instantly. In fact, I had access to another Polar HR7 and it worked perfectly also. I was so irritated when I tried out the unit you sent back. I couldn’t believe you guys just didn’t send out a new unit. And your repair notes STILL say it was the strap which is a lie. At this point, I don’t think you even tested the unit.
Your alert messages in the IVR are complete lies. You did not have high call volume, you were understaffed doing inventory. I know this because I was in call center work for almost 15 years. Quit lying to your customers – it reduces your integrity.
You have wasted my time, stretched my patience, and lied too many times for me to trust you. Sad thing is that your products are awesome and have helped me lose 45 lbs after being sick for several years.
The more I deal with you, the more I am reminded of all the sorry customer service that ICON FITNESS provides for all their treadmills and such – just horror stories that never end. That is why we have not purchased a home treadmill – TRUST.
As you try to gain ground in the activity fitness tracker world you better learn this – trust, integrity, and customer service generates and RETAINS customers. You have too many competitors to screw up for even a short period.

I love Polar for their HR accuracy — the most accurate on the market. For that accuracy I’m willing to wear a chest strap. Polar’s technology is somewhat more accurate than other brands using chest straps and Polar is much more accurate than models that don’t use chest straps. I bought this strap to go with a Polar M61 (no longer made) that had the strap from three generations ago (the strap that joined in the front by snapping onto the two ends the oval shaped transmitter). As Polar repeatedly redesigned the strap for greater comfort they continued to use the same oval transmitter. All their chest strap models work with this chest strap and the same oval transmitter. Thank you Polar! Right out of the box the new strap worked. The strap is about as comfortable as a strap can get. Fairly thin but doesn’t roll, soft lining material, and the material in front that picks up your heart’s electrical signals is quite flexible and adds little bulk. The hook looks like it would be difficult to get into the loop, but it’s always easy. This size (M-XXL) realy does have a huge range of adjustment. Strap never comes undone or slips down. I’ve worn it in a drenching sweat and I’ve worn it unsweaty walking a mile to the gym or hours afterwards running errands. The instructions say to douse it under the water faucet before putting it on but that’s not necessary. I put on the strap, then apply spit (saliva) between the strap and my skin. I think spit and sweat both conduct better than water. Sometimes I leave the strap on for a long time after my work out, and the strap maintains connection with my heartbeat. It will loose connection if I curl up tightly so that the strap is no longer flush with my body. I occasionally wash the strap in a mesh bag in the washing machine and then hang it to dry, but not as often as they recommend.
