Summary: Works good, needs batteries often and a pain to install
Comment: Often is not exactly how I would put it. How about, "More often than I would have thought". I need to change about once every 4 months. The battery issue is much less annoying than the fact that I have to unlace my shoes to "install" and "uninstall" the foot pod. This is a pain anytime that I want to use a different pair of shoes on the treadmill. The unit is also quite big for what it is, which is less annoying than I would have first thought. The weight has not been an issue, and I hardly even notice it is there while I am running. Overall, just an acceptable design.

Summary: easy to use just wish it clipped on
Comment: Easy to use. Paired fast, no problem calibrating, very accurate. You have to lace it on and only way to remove it from your shoe is to unlace your shoe. Would be nice if it had a base that laced on and then the pod clipped on. However, the fot pod is so light you don't notice it there.

Summary: Expense bandaid for bad software and website
Comment: I own the Garmin 405 with HRM. It is beyond me why anyone would be happy with buying a foot pod. The correct answer is for Garmin to allow manual entries and the editing of data on Garmin Connect and Training Center. This deficiency means that if you are running, biking, or working out indoors you are forced to pay $100 to log your workout.
Oh - and if you complete an "indoor cardio" workout like biking that doesn't involve any impact then the foot pod will not work and you still can not log your workout.
The 405 is a solid product, the Garmin Connect and Training Center are buggy and deficient, and the foot pod is a complete rip off. Open a Garmin Connect account for yourself and prepare to be underwhelmed.

Summary: Great product
Comment: Looking for a great way to accurately track your workouts indoors? This will fit your need. I have an older treadmill at home and is not accurate, the foot pod accurately tracks my mileage and pace. You can also upload your workouts to your Garmin Training Center software on your computer. I did not calibrate mine and it's within a .05 of a mile on the treadmills at the gym, so it's pretty accurate already. Of course if you want to be precise follow the directions to calibrate it. The only drawback to the foot pod is that it isn't easily removed from your show due to having to run your laces through them. Maybe future models will have an easier way to attach and detach the foot pod. That's the only negative. I am very pleased with my purchase and works automatically with my Forerunner 305.
