at Target Favorite Ride: Early morning in Arches National Park Bike Setup: Moots Compact with Campy Chorus 10 Summary: I got this F4 as a Christmas present in 2008. Two weeks later the buttons cracked and fell off. Polar sent me new buttons, and two weeks later the buttons cracked again. I sent the unit to polar two more times and the buttons only lasted 2 weeks each time.
I called their service department and escallated the issue. I spoke to Albert, who said that sun tan lotion damages the buttons so they break. He suggested either not using sun tan lotion or wearing a wrist band under the watch. GIVE ME A BREAK!!! I live in San Diego and I wear sun tan lotion 360 days per year. Polar said their new units do not have that problem, but they would not replace my F4 with a good one.
I will never buy another Polar product. Strengths: When it works, it seems fine. Weaknesses: Buttons break off, can't use the unit when wearing sun tan lotion. Similar Products Used: none
