Great So Far!
Only worn a handful of times, but so far, so good…. Much better than the old bulky forerunner…. Treadmill accuracy of off, but can be calibrated easily.

Easy To Use
Bought this as a replacement for the 235. Band is a little shorter than previous model. Wish they would make them standard. Overall watch is great though. I wanted one that had specific features but was easy enough to use. This watch accomplishes that.

Nice Fitness Watch
Very similar watch to the Garmin Forerunner 235. Watch bezel is a little thinner than the 235. Band could be better quality

Forerunner 245
I recently upgraded from the Vivoactive, and am so happy. This color is beautiful! The features are fantastic and the battery life is great! It is much easier to use than I was expecting based on reviews that I read.

Happy With This Watch.
Pleased with the features this watch provides. It is coordinated with my strava account and automatically sends my workout info straight there. It was easy to set up as I have had previous garmin watches. Satellite picks up quick and can set it up for various activities..run, bike, swim and indoor workouts also. Other features include heart rate, stress levels, weather info, training status and more. I think it is a great value for what you get.

Heart Rate Not Working.
I bought this watch to replace my forerunner 235, I was really excited to get it, I have had it for two weeks now and the heart monitor has never worked. If it did work I think this would be a an amazing product But unfortunately it’s just not.

Nice Running Watch But It's Not A Simple Watch
I have been using this for several week. It is a great running watch. If you are looking for a step up in tracking data this is great. My last Garmin was 225 and it was perfect. I would not suggest this watch if you just want to track the runs.

Useful Features!
I bought the Garmin 245 as an upgrade to my 5 year old Garmin. The 245 allows me to create a route, upload it to the watch and follow it when out for a run or ride. The satellites pick up immediately, no waiting like I had to do with my last watch. LOVE IT!!
