Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I reviewed pedometers for three days before buying. The differences among, say the top 8 brands, is amazingly different and complicated. Finally I knew what I wanted, and it still took another day to narrow the field. This 3Dfitbud was my choice. I'm a senior and want to judge my daily walking. First, I learned to ignore all the hype about "accuracy." It doesn't matter from one day to the next. Each day is relative to the ones before. That's enough. That reduced the field a great deal no longer needing to measure my stride, figure out how to enter it in the pedometer, and so on. Second, the most complicated pedometers have the smallest type face and windows. I need to easily see what it says, so that reduced the field even more. Third, I don't own a "smart" phone and have no need for all that other "medical" information. The cost is for this 3dfitbud, and that's it. I just want a relevant measure from one day to the next of my walking. Fourth, it has a 10 step hurdle so it doesn't count "couch" movement, etc. Works for me; some don't like it. Forget what some reviews say. It clips to your pants, and it doesn't come off. You can put it in your pocket or wear around your neck. And the results are within 15% of each other. I tested them all. Again, if you wear it the same way, its relevant. Switch from pants to neck, your numbers will be less meaningful. Finally its easy to read with really BIG numbers. It doesn't store them day after day. Take it off at night, write down the number, push the reset button the back, and you are ready to go tomorrow. It beckons. My normal before was about 4800 steps. With just a little resolve, I'm up to 8000-12000 steps a day in one week. I like that result. And by the way, if you haven't thought about it, each leg is counted. Right forward, left forward, is two steps :)
