The Bottom Line

A simple, inexpensive pedometer. The distance display is on the top, so you can see your progress with just a glance. It does not display the step count, however.

Guide Review - Sportline 342 Pedometer

The Sportline 342 Electronic Walking Pedometer displays on the miles walked since it was last reset. That makes it less than ideal for those who want to motivate themselves by recording steps rather than miles. You can set your stride length in increments of 0.1 feet, which will provide a more accurate distance reading than pedometers that can only be set in 0.25 foot increments. No pedometer will be fully accurate with distance, so still expect a 10% error. With the buttons unprotected by a cover, the reset button can be accidentally pressed.
