The paperwork says it may be worn when swimming. Also, to maintain water resistance, do not press button under water. Page 16 in getting started guide. So, I guess you can wear it while doing dishes. Just don't press the buttons...hope that helps.

Hi, it is waterproof. It says it on the instructions and I also swam in it yesterday so it was submerged in water for long periods of time and still worked. However (and this might not apply to what you're asking) my transmitter (around the chest) kept losing signal so I need to figure out if there's something I need to do better to avoid that. But the watch itself worked just fine under the water.

I think it won't be a problem but, I'm not 100% sure. Go to the Polar website and check that detail

The entire device is waterproof. Don't float it in water for several days or anything, but mine has been in the sink with the dishes and been fine.

No it is not waterproof. I might keep the water off for a little while, but eventually it is going to soak through.

I'm not sure if it designed to be waterproof. Might find a "for sure" answer on their website, but I can tell you that I forgot to take if off my shirt shortly after buying it and my Fitbit went through the wash with the shirt! I was so bummed, I thought I had killed it. But it still works fine! So maybe they are waterproof, or maybe I just got lucky. Not sure. UPDATE: NOT WATERPROOF! I just found this on the fitbit website: "Zip is not waterproof. It shouldn't be worn while swimming. It is, however, rain, splash, and sweat-proof." So I guess I was just lucky that mine survived going through the washing machine!

Ive had mine for about a year now, no issues what so ever. I also am bad about leaving it in a sink full of wet dishes. I liked mine so much I bought one as part of a gift for my father in law. I hope this helps!

Wet things will be fine, It has a cloth like filter that can be washed. but don't try to pick up liquids, that won't work.

Yes it is waterproof, but you are not supposed to leave it submerged the water for days on end, rust etc.

This is how I wash my dishes too. In the hottest water and they're just fine. (Unless your water is hotter than mine... )

Though I haven't tried going swimming or anything, I would say yes just from my experience in washing it off. I really need to scrub with a cloth to get it off with just water.

Fully immersed in water, absolutely not. They say it is moisture proof, not waterproof. I'm telling you this because I'm an electronics engineer, rather than from experience with the actual device.

I would say it's NOT waterproof, maybe water "resistant". It is sturdy and could probably be hosed off if needed though.

well,actually I did not pay much attention about this aspect.In my impression, it has no problem when submerged in water.I washed it once after several time's use to keep it clean and found no water in it after dry it naturally:)

It is water resistant, which means it can get wet but should not be submerged. Mine gets wet while washing my hands, but I remove it to shower and that is a great time to recharge it.

Thanks for your question. These wonderful sounding headphones are not waterproof and should not be submerged. Thanks again.

Yes, I wash dishes with it all the time. I was cooking sauce the other day and splashed some on the apron. When it dried I just wiped it off with a damp cloth. This is a great apron.

Yes does wash off with water . Not quick and easy, but yes. Trade off is : pain in but to clean vs better connectivity
