Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)This is a pretty good scale. I like that it has the options for body fat and water. They don't really function all that well and tend to fluctuate quite a bit so I'm not sure how accurate it really is. It is nice to have a general idea though.
Fluctuations for me have been between 28% and 34% percent body fat in a 4 day window, now I know I didn't gain that much body fat in 4 days. So I just take the body fat and water percentages with a grain of salt.
The other thing this scale does that I'm not a fan of is the weight reading changes while you are taking it if you move the slightest bit. Even with slight movement it jumps around quite a bit.
I haven't quite figured out how to activate it for just a weight reading with out actually hitting the on/off button, though my 2 year old has :)
I tried tapping it with my foot and that doesn't work, I guess I will have to read the manual for that, that's what they are for!I do recommend this scale, just not for someone who is in need of seriuos tracking for body fat or water.
Or some one over the age of 50 because it doesn't let you enter an age past 50 for the memory, body fat, and water percentages.Bottom line:
Good scale for weight.
Good for approximate body fat and water, not accurate.
Good for use under 50 years of age.
Bad for anyone over 50.
Bad fluctuations in weight with even slight movement.
Probably not worth the money.
