Amazon.com Product Description
On the surface, the Mio Motiva Petite heart rate monitor watch--which offers a band designed specifically for petite wrists--is a stylish, everyday, wearable fitness accessory. But the Motiva Petite takes things one step further by integrating Mio's patented weight-management system, giving you all the motivation you need to reach your health and fitness goals. Your weight is directly connected to the foods you eat and the exercise you get. The Motiva Petite helps you manage the former by setting daily calorie targets and recording the number of calories you eat throughout the day. The Motiva Petite then tells you how well you're doing and sets off an alarm should you go over. When it comes to exercise, the device monitors your heart rate and makes sure it stays high during workouts for a maximum calorie burn. With the Motiva Petite, you can literally watch the calories burn off. Specific features include the ability to accurately read your ECG heart rate without a chest strap, five exercise timers (count up, count down, count up with warmup, walk/run, and repeat), Mio's 3,500 Calorie Countdown program, and a user-accessible battery hatch. As a bonus, the Motiva comes with an interchangeable watch band in sky blue and orange, along with the MioSense Guide for Healthy Living, a booklet that includes information on health, nutrition, diet, fitness, and exercise, along with carb and calorie tables at the back for easy reference. About Mio
The story of Mio began in 1999 when it was created by entrepreneur and mother of three, Liz Dickinson. Like many of us, Liz balances family and career, leaving little time for fitness. After several unsuccessful attempts to achieve her fitness goals and shed the pregnancy weight-gain of her third child, Liz turned to a personal trainer for advice. While working with a trainer, Liz realized the key to getting in shape and staying in shape is to practice smart eating habits, monitoring calorie intake, and using a heart rate monitor to ensure that she exercises at the right level. Liz realized there wasn't a product available on the market that would easily help her follow her trainer's advice. Liz didn't have time to read labels and carry a calorie journal in her purse, nor did she have much patience for the uncomfortable chest strap she had to wear to get her heart rate. She knew there had to be a better way, so Liz used her technology and marketing savvy to create Mio, the world's first heart rate monitor to work without a chest strap. And, it didn't stop with just heart rate, as Mio also has a patented calorie management system that offers a straightforward approach to managing your diet. With the help of Mio and a balanced diet, Liz was able to shed those unwanted pounds and gain the benefits that come with improved fitness: more energy, more vitality, and less stress, and help many others do the same with the creation of Mio's products.

 Awesome Motivational Tool February 22, 2010
Mommy S
I love my Motiva Heart Rate Monitor Watch! It's great when I'm working out to be able to see my heart rate each time. That way if I'm in the same point of a workout that I did previously and my heart rate isn't where it was that time then I know that I am not working out as hard as I could and I kick it up a notch. I love that I can track my calories on it too! I haven't used the function for calories consumed because I use a different system for that already, but it's great to be able to see how many calories a specific workout has and also to be able to see at the end of the day how many calories I've burned! The only "con" that I have found with this watch is sometimes it's hard to get a reading on the heart rate and I'll have to do it several times before it works. However, this is usually when my hands are really cold so I think that's the issue. Definitely more pros than cons to this product though!! I don't think you can find a better comparable product for the price. I would recommend it to anyone wanting to lose weight or just get fit.
 un-serious December 29, 2009

Maybe this is ok for calorie counter and nutri system followers but this is not a watch for athletes. Athletes will want to continue to use a strap as this device only indicates your heart rate when you place you opposing hand on the reader nodes. Not practical when swimming biking or even running or anything else. Furthermore it takes several seconds to give you the read out. Maybe this is ok for some but for anyone doing serious heart rate training; don't buy this product.
Mio Motiva Petite December 20, 2009

Watch is easy to set up. Gives fairly accurate and easily obtained heart rate reading - with the watch on your wrist just press two buttons on opposite sides of watch with the other hand. Easy to enter your data.
Have not tried to use yet as a calorie counter. I believe it will be awkward as you have to enter your caloric intake and I am not certain how your calories burned are calculated.
Right size for smaller wrist. Good looking. Cleverly designed to easily exchange watch bands, but 2nd band included with watch is very, very bright.
Useful, small book with health and weight-loss advise and lists of the calorie count for many foods included.
 Easily Scratched September 2, 2009
Dawn Heinemann (Tucson)
I wanted this watch for over a year before I purchased it. It had all the features I was looking for, including an interval timer, heart rate monitor, etc. While I love the features and the petite size (fits my tiny wrist), you cannot hear the timer chimes if you have music or even if you are out on a busy street.
My biggest complaint is that the "crystal" seems to be thin, cheap plastic, and I scratched the face the first day. Since then it has become heavily scratched, and I don't think I am particulary hard on it. I would not buy another Mio for this reason.

I purchased this watch for heart rate monitoring and it just isn't accurate. Also when running, when you check your rate, it doesn't always work. It says because of sweat, but that is what you do when running. Best as a watch.
