In its favour: it counts laps accurately, and it's easy to use with just one hand. The habit of wearing it on the inside of the middle finger and pushing at the moment of turn is easy to grasp and has stuck with me even now the unit is dead.
Against: the digits are very faint and small (the whole unit is only about 3cm long) and not easy to see by pool light. The button doesn't give enoough tactile feedback in the heat of the moment and when I started I couldn't tell whether I was pushing on the display glass or the button. After a month the button came out (together with the switch operating pin which I hope has been sucked into the filtration rather than lying waiting for someone's foot). Then the display died, filled full of water and that was the end.
Overall - fun whilst it lasted, now I'm trying a Timex Ironman 150 (but the istructions actually say don't push the buttons underwater, so it might not survive! And it can't be done with one hand either).

Such a useful product to help count laps. Fits easily onto the finger and easy to click after each lap. The numbers are clear enough to see in the water

Great little products for counting laps, shame it doesn't have a beep on the button press, and an auto off after 1 hour - other than that - this product is fine for it's purpose.

An absolute crock
Works fine in the dry, but lasted only 29 lengths in the pool. Deader than a dead thing. Going to buy the Poolmate I should have bought in the first place.

Small hands
The lapcounter works well and it's easy to get used to. My only minor problem with it is that my hands are quite small and the smallest notch on the strap isn't quite small enough... Read more

swim lap counter
Totally brilliant piece of equipment! No longer have to swim saying "5 lengths done; 5 lengths done". Just click the counter as you reach the end of each length. Read more

swim lap counter
It is a simple item and very effective, easy to use and no trouble when you are swimming and easy to set.

Great little gadget
This is great for someone who always loses count of the number of lengths they have done. Fits snugly round your thumb and is extremely easy to use. Simple and useful.

It lasted only 3 months
This is a nice and compact lap counter but after only 3 months it failed.
It does not seem water proof, which is not very useful for a Swim Lap Counter.

Lasted six weeks at the most
After reading other reviews saying that the counter only lasted a month, I was wary of buying it, but decided to try it and see if I had any more luck. Bad choice. Read more

Mine lasted slightly longer than one month, but only just
I agree with the lady whose lap counter lasted one month. It is easy to use, and counts the laps correctly. It isn't always easy to read under pool lighting. Read more
