Buying a new a Garmin. Which still count # floors climbed?

General Information

Hi! New, here. I've had several Garmins and they've ea (1) lasted me a long time and (2) done what I need. I'm planning to update my "everyday" Garmin fitness tracker (currently still using the vivosmart 4, but I think it's on its way out.).

I don't need a million bells and whistles for that (I have a sep system for hard training), but I DO love and want to maintain my ability to know # of floors climbed. Unfortunately, I keep running into contractions in online descriptions as I'm cross-referencing trackers' respective manuals and "specs" on various sites in my run-up to buying. Which Garmins still track # of floors climbed? If I have to "upgrade" to something more "serious" to keep this feature I'll do it, but being an advanced piece is not a necessary condition. I've dug into this forum the past couple days & seems this is the right group to consult!

Thanks so much. Really appreciate any info & advice folks may have. :)
