Easy to use and really sucks up the water. Problem is that the hose that feeds the water is crimped so not much water goes out unless I hit the surge button. If you suck too much without water the float will pop up and shut it off from the dry dirt that’s getting sucked up. SO I just use the surge a lot and it does the job.

The EatSmart scale digital display is bright, the numerals large and easy to read. For years we had been weighing on a scale that fluctuated several pounds with each weighing. This scale is consistent and accurate. No more blaming the scale for an added pound or two. We couldn’t be happier with it.

I don’t know how I ran for so long without one!
I would like to address some of the reviews that made me nervous about purchasing this product. Some people have complained about the size of this watch versus the newer model. I am a 5′6″ 120lb female and the size does not bother me at all. It is wider than my wrist, but it is not uncomfortable to wear. Others have also complained that it loses signal when running under trees, however I run on a trail where an entire mile is completely shaded by trees and it never loses signal for me. It does sometimes take a while to initially find a signal, but that seems to depend on the weather. In sunny conditions, it seems to find it almost immediately, but when it is cloudy I’ve had it take up to 5 minutes. Also some people have said that the pace does not seem to be accurate, but I have found it to be extremely accurate. I run half marathons so I am very concerned with my pace and it has never been off. I even once ran a half marathon with my sister who has the 405, and our watches were both reporting the exam same numbers.

My favorite feature is lap setting. You can set it to alert you whenever you complete a “lap” that you designate. For example, I set mine to alert me whenever I complete a mile. It beeps to alert me, and then flashes my pace for that mile on a screen for a minute. This really helps me when I look back at my run, because I can see at exactly what mile my pace starts to slow or speed up. The software that comes with it is also a big help because you can map out all of your runs on your computer, as well as compare them. I also love that you can completely customize the watch to view the features that you are interested in. It is very easy to navigate, and there are still so many features that I haven’t even tried yet. I love this product and would definitely recommend it to any runner.
