Great product June 22, 2008 Really well build, good design, seems very accurate (as far as I can tell) and it's really easy to use. I'll buy it again if I have to.
Good value for the money June 21, 2008 0 out of 2 found this comment useful.
An excellent scale and not so excellent body fat meter. Don't panic if it shows your fat being 30-40%, it probably isn't true. A 20 years old athletic (on the slim side) guy was measured to have 23% fat.
Highly recommend June 19, 2008 1 out of 1 found this comment useful.
For a price not much more than a digital scale that just shows weight, this scale "does it all." Other reviewers have described in great detail this scale's features. Just be sure to take the 5 minutes to read the instruction manual. If you want to track your measurements keep a small notebook handy.
If you're athletic or fit---won't work for you! June 12, 2008 0 out of 2 found this comment useful.
Consistently inaccurate with body fat measurements. The device is sensitive to electrical currents so I made sure not to be around the microwave, etc. But even doing that, I'd still get wacky numbers. Taken a few seconds apart from different locations in my room, I'd get body fat measurements 3-4 percentages off from each other.
I'm a very fit and healthy individual. I bought this to keep an eye on my stats. I know how to weigh myself (not after meals, showers, etc.). I also understand that calipers are more accurate, but this scale shouldn't be SO far off--especially for $60+. Booo.
Accurate scale....terrible body fat measurement! June 9, 2008 2 out of 3 found this comment useful.
DO NOT buy this scale if you are trying to accurately measure your body fat percentage! I don't know how this scale has managed to recieve such good reviews, it's is horribly inaccurate at measuring anything other than weight. I am a 24 year old ex-college athlete and I exercise/lift weights 7 days a week, yet somehow, according to this scale, I have 27% body fat. I calculated using other methods (tape and calipers) and both reported 9-11%. I only give the scale two stars because it does accurately measure weight. Save your money, buy a less expensive scale and some calipers for a more accurate method of measuring body fat.
