very easy to set up and seems to be pretty accurate regardless of how many times you step on it.
we just got are scale in yesterday and right out of the box i had it working in no time.
it is consistent as it read the same weight for both of us each time we stood on it.
a little hard to figure out how to get it to work but once you do, it works fine and when you step on it a few times if comes up with the same results indicating to me that it is accurate.
this scale does everything it says it does, my only issue is trying to set it up and use it the first few times proved to be rather confusing.
i take multiple readings just to average them out, but only time will tell how accurate the body fat readout is.
i like that it displays your previous weight each time before you get on.
i've been working on managing my weight for some time and i have had several scales that were not accurate.
replaces a tanita 10 year old one that measures body fat only and only has one setting at a time (for family members).
like any other body fat scale it's only accurate if you take the reading first thing in the morning and use the readings over a long period of time, because it can be off by as much as a couple of
accurate, measures body fat index - useful for long-time monitoring when you exercise to track progress!
while i'm uncertain of the accuracy of the scale, it is very precise: you can step on it many times and it will give you the same weight each time.
i've have stepped on it 7 times in a row and only had one variation of .2lbs.
what is the point of a scale that is off by several pounds each time you use it, even if it is cheap?
i like how it gets your weight down to the nitty gritty and is mostly precise, although i do step on it about 3 times to see what # it gives me.
it is accurate to .1 pound, which can be very important when you're trying to lose weight (seeing even a little bit of a drop can be excellent motivation!) you can step on it several times in a row
moreover, it is very consistent, so that if you step on it ten times, it will read the same thing each time.
candles to myself and this scale gives the same reading for the weight time after time.
i love it - wished i had this scale long ago - so accurate and easy to use - it only takes a toe lift at the end of the scale to initiate the 000.0 - flashes three times and when it settles into
i can weigh on it 3 times in a row and it will always report the same weight, even if i pick it up and move it to another room!
every time i step on the scale it makes me feel lighter!
it seems that i'm always dieting and watching my weight, and it's frustrating to have the scale vary by 1-3 pounds every time you stand on it.
to be fair, this is a bit confusing the first time because one doesn't know how to react (is it working now?
additionally, it stores the highest value for each of those items over time, so you can see how you are trending; which is exceptionally useful.
when you diet, most of the time, you are losing water or muscle, not fat.
my body retains a good deal of fluids and i was interested in this feature so i don't panic each time i see the scale creep up a few pounds.
now if you have ever set the time and date on a digital watch with buttons for advancing and a button for setting, you will feel at ease .
if all one wants is to see what one weighs at a given time, a more basic scale will do the job, but this one offers better support for maintaining a diet/exercise plan.
i can weigh myself several times and always get the same reading.
i thought it was the batteries, but i changed them 3 times and bought new ones....the scale is still a piece of crap!
getting off and on it several times in a short time shows that it is at least consistent, as it always gives exactly the same measurement.
i have tested this scale many times and it is dead on (sometimes.)somtimes it gets confused and needs to be reset, this might be because my cats and dog bump it on a regular basis though.
this is really more than what i needed, but at the time the price was good.
each time you need to choose your number where you put your information before, then press 'set'.
this time it read 84.8 pounds.
