Amazon.com Product Description
The Omron HJ-720ITC Pocket Pedometer is an advanced, high-tech pedometer that--thanks to unique dual sensor technology--can be carried in your pocket or bag. Now you can just drop your pedometer in your purse to find out how much exercise you get in a typical day of work, errands, and other tasks. Of course, you can also attach it to your belt like a traditional pedometer.

The device's large, easy-to-read LCD display can separately display aerobic steps and minutes walked more than 10 minutes continuously, so you always have the information you need right in front of you. Meanwhile, a seven day history lets you review a full week of exercise, and there's also a 42-day memory for uploading past workouts to your PC. The device resets at midnight automatically so it's ready to go every morning. Of course, the device can also function as a handy and highly accurate clock. It also comes with a detachable belt holder and security strap so it's always close at hand.

The HJ-720ITC is powered by a replaceable lithium battery (CR2032) that will last six months when used for walking 10,000 steps a day. The pedometer also includes PC software for Windows 2000 or XP, which keeps track of daily, weekly, monthly and yearly progress.

The included Omron Health Management Software provides a steps graph that lets you see how your values are trending over time. View larger.

Great Pedometer
The Omron HJ-720ITC Pedometer is wonderful! It counts steps accurately. I love the clip that comes with it so if it falls off, it doesn't completely fall off. I love the software that comes with it so you can track your progress from day to day. It gives you incentive to do better.

Excellent item to stimulate good health
Excellent tool to assist in increasing your exercise level by challenging yourself to beat the numbers of steps of the previous day. Doesn't drop mileage like other pedometers.

Extremely Disappointed in Omron
On July 9th of 2008 I purchased this unit primarily due to such outstanding reviews I found on Amazon. For the first month I was as happy as all the five star reviewers. I really loved the unit. Last week the unit stopped exporting my walking details to the software (which is the feature that I liked most).

After calling Omron, they recommended that I take the sofware off my computer and attempt to put it back on. And that if that didn't work, the problem most likely came from a default in the unit.

Putting on the new software didn't fix the issue, so I called Omron back and told them that I must have a faulty unit. They told me that I had to send back the unit to their repair department and include a $5.00 money order for the expense of sending me back a new unit.

So they are asking me to pay for both shipping, to and fro, to replace a unit I purchased one month ago. That is an insult to injury. Not only do they not acknowledge the down time of not having the unit, the inconvenience and time spent mailing the unit and going to the bank to get a money order, but they charge me $10.00 for postage.

That is bad customer service in my book!

Omron Hj-720ITC Pedometer
This is the best pedometer I've had so far. It interfaces with the PC perfectly. It's very user friendly and very much worth every bit of the price. I like mine so much I purchased another for my wife!
