NESKLA 3D Pedometer for Walking, Simple Step Counter for Walking with Large Digital Display, Step Tracker with Removable Clip Lanyard, Accurately Track Steps for Men Women Kids Adults Seniors

I am admittedly a “step counter.” Once I started years ago, I haven’t been able to stop. It’s helped me in many ways, and I’ve tried many different methods. I mention all of this because I know all the gadgets and devices for step counting, and I always come back to the pedometer. I was searching for a new pedometer, and saw the NESKLA 3D Pedometer. It was priced well and had a lot of the features I want (without a bunch of things I don’t want).

The item shipped quickly, was packaged well, and was easy to set up and give a try. The first thing I tested was the removable clip. It’s made of a sturdy plastic and attached easily to the pocket on my yoga pants and the lip of my shoe.

I tested this pedometer for about three weeks before writing this review, and can whole-heartedly say that I love it so much and highly recommend it. The best thing about the NESKLA 3D Pedometer is that it is simple (in the best sense of the word). The display area is large and easy to read. I also really liked the auto-dimmer and battery-saver functions. I typically wear it all day long, and it’s light enough that I barely notice it, yet I can easily check my steps at any time due to the large numeric display. (I’ve found some other pedometers to have additional functions which prohibited me from a simple step-count check.) I also like the simple press and hold reset. I tested the step-count and it is accurate. Believe it or not, many pedometers are troublesome in their accuracy.

I purchased the black pedometer, but I noticed that it is available in multiple colors, and it’s very reasonably priced! This is my go-to pedometer and I’m so glad I found it. I’ve told my work-out buddies about the NESKLA 3D Pedometer, and wanted to share my thoughts here as well.

I recently purchased this pedometer and I must say, it’s been a refreshing change from the high-tech, app-connected gadgets out there. Its simplicity is its greatest strength. The pedometer’s design is sleek and unobtrusive, making it an ideal choice for those who prefer a minimalistic approach. Clipping it onto my pants, it’s barely noticeable, yet it does an excellent job at tracking my steps throughout the day.

What I appreciate most is its accuracy. Whether I’m walking around the office or going for a brisk walk, it reliably counts each step, providing me with the feedback I need to stay active. The large display is a bonus, allowing for easy reading of my step count without any hassle.

Another standout feature is its battery efficiency. It’s been weeks and I haven’t encountered any issues with battery life or had to struggle with a tight battery compartment. Plus, the auto-dim and shake-to-wake function is a smart touch, conserving battery when not in use.

While I’ve mostly worn it on my waist, it’s versatile enough to be worn in different ways, catering to personal preferences. I’ve tried it on my ankle during elliptical workouts and found it to be just as effective.

In conclusion, this pedometer is a fantastic tool for those seeking a straightforward, reliable way to track their daily activity. It’s definitely a great value for anyone looking to keep a simple yet effective tab on their physical activity.

I am tired of apps, bluetooth, syncing, etc. and I was just looking for something basic to track my steps each day. I was super excited about this affordable pedometer after seeing a lot of good reviews, but I’ve found it a little frustrating. The first one I received was in pristine condition, but the battery compartment was SO tight it could not be budged or opened at all. I can’t remember if I ever even turned it on, because I exchanged it due to knowing I’d never be able to change the battery when necessary. The second one I received had clearly been opened before, evident by tears where the flap at the top of the box tucks in. I couldn’t tell if it had actually been used or not, but it appeared clean and seemed to work so I decided to keep it. I used it for a few days and was really liking it, but soon noticed it was resetting itself to zero in the middle of the day without me pressing the button. The first time it happened, I assumed it was a fluke, but it’s an ongoing issue. I now find that I’m trying to look at it throughout the day and make a mental note of how many steps it says so I can add the steps in my head when it inevitably zeroes itself out, which it now does several times each day. Honestly, it’s become an annoyance, and my memory and attention span aren’t good enough to add up the steps all day long and try to compensate for it repeatedly resetting.

If it weren’t for the zero issue, I’d like it. I usually wear it on my ankle or at my waist, and it counts pretty accurately as long as you don’t take a few tiny steps at a time without surpassing the 10 step minimum for it to register. For example, if I water the garden and I’m moving around a good bit without stopping, it will register many steps. However if I were weeding in the garden, moving only a few steps at a time and stopping frequently, it would not register as many steps due to the frequent stopping before hitting the 10 step minimum (even if I took the same number of steps). It also seems to work on the elliptical, but for some reason it doesn’t count accurately on the elliptical when I wear it at my ankle. It does count elliptical strides for me if I wear it at my waist.

UPDATE: I originally thought the new battery that arrived in the unit would be sufficient, but after seeing it mentioned in another review, I changed to a totally fresh name-brand battery and this seems to have fixed the random resetting issue. To the seller’s credit, they reached out to me several times after I posted my original review and were very proactive about trying to make things right with a refund or replacement. I didn’t find that necessary, but I appreciate it. It seems to be working well now, and I’d recommend it as a simple, low-tech alternative to all the apps, trackers, and whatnot.

What I loved about the device is how accurate it is. It is small in size and easy to use, just reset it hang it on your hip and walk. It’s a great motivator for my wife and me. We check our step counts at the end of each day. Also, I keep track each day the count, so I become more motivated to walk further each day. Being retired it is a great device to help you stay fit and active.
