I changed my review from a 1 to a 5...here's why I am impressed. First, I had a Tanita scale; it told me my weight, body fat, water weight, bone weight, if my toe nails needed to be cut, etc. However, I could not read the display and as executive/non-athlete I did not need all this information. When that scale died, I went looking for a good solid simple scale. I liked the way this scale looked and the reviews on Amazon were good. Plus, the price was great. I got it right away, and it was great. Looked good, easy to read, and I liked the 0.2 denominations. However, unfortunately it stopped working after two weeks. I went to return it on Amazon and posted a disappointing review. Then the most amazing thing happened...this really happened...about an hour after I posted my review, I was contacted by the company. They read my review and apologized that my unit was not operating the way that it was supposed, discussed their high quality control and that this should not have happened, and then they sent me a replacement right away. THAT IS CUSTOMER SERVICE!!! They are family run operation that prides themselves on customer service and providing people with a quality product. THEY STAND BEHIND THEIR PRODUCTS! There are so few of these good companies left. I was very impressed. I am a very happy customer again and will buy other products from this company!! I hope you will too.
Perfect no frills bathroom scale - Accurate, reliable and good looking
Reviewed by: J. Rogers, San Diego Review Date: 2008-12-11
Watch Video Here: http://www.amazon.com/review/R15FLE7YQUJVGE Update (3/22/10) - The company was nice enough to send me an updated version of this scale with their step on feature. Ill hopefully be updating my video shortly, but long story short there is no more tapping to activate and calibrate the scale. You just step on and get your readings. Otherwise its basically the same accurate, consistent scale it has been for the last year and a half.
Original Review - I think my title says it all. I own other EatSmart products so I bought this scale with confidence. Its a no-frills bathroom scale with one user that is accurate and easy to use.
Operating is easy. You tap the glass to wake the scale up and step on....no wasted time setting up users (which my last scale had) or programming weight loss goals. The scale reads out to the nearest .2 pounds, which is a nice feature when you are trying to gain confidence and hit short term weight loss goals (every little bit counts to me). More importantly its CONSISTANT, which means I get the same reading every time I step on and off the scale. Nothing was more infuriating than weighing myself, stepping off, re-weighing myself and seeing a completely different number (by as much as 5 lbs!). EatSmart seems to have solved this problem quite nicely.
Style-wise I have no complaints....the glass top is much better looking than the stainless steel I have previously and it doesn't make nearly as much noise when stepped on. The thinner profile also keeps me low to the ground so I worry less about slippage after a shower (plus with the larger LCD I'm not hunched over to read it).
A must have investment for anyone looking to lose weight.
Finally!!

I am SO happy to finally have a bathroom scale that WORKS! My old Taylor scale was just crap. Seriously. I lost so much motivation because of that thing, it would give me different weights anywhere within a 5-pound "range" every time I stepped on it, so I never had any idea what I actually weighed, or whether or not my hard work was paying off. Drove me nuts!
Because of that, I put my new EatSmart scale through a lot of "tests" when I got it today. I stepped on it 5 times in a row, alternating between it and the old Taylor scale each time. The old scale gave me 5 completely different numbers, as usual, but the EatSmart stayed the same each time! I even tried putting the laundry basket on it in between weighs, to make sure it wasn't just "remembering" the last number. Nope! So then I tried drinking a big glass of water, and sure enough, the EatSmart registered a .6 pound increase. Fantastic! I'm so pleased with the consistency and accuracy of this scale. I'm feeling 100x more energized and motivated than I was yesterday, because I know now I'll be able to see the REAL results of my actions, good or otherwise. :)
Great value in a bathroom scale!

When I finally decided to replace the old analog scale that I have had for the last decade I thought it was going to be an expensive and borderline painful process. After doing a little research, I purchased the EatSmart scale primarily because the large display was appealing (I have a very small apartment bathroom with one small overhead light) and the price seemed right.
I have been nothing but thrilled with this purchase so far. The large screen allows for me to easily read the scale every time (even after I get out of the shower and the bathroom is fogged up). With my old analog I was always hunching over to figure out what major weights the dial was between. It also is very accurate (I weighed myself multiple times the first few times to test this) and has none of the huge weight fluctuations reported in the reviews of some of Amazon's other scales. Best of all the price was very reasonable versus scales with similar features I have seen elsewhere.
Highly recommended.
Excellent customer service, awesome product!

This scale has a very sleek design, and the large back-lit display is very useful! It's very easy to read. When I first received the scale, I had trouble tapping it and getting it to turn on. I would have to pick it up and set it back down in order to turn it on. So, I eventually contacted the customer support through e-mail about the issue. And wow, they are extremely fast at responding!! I received a call from them after about (literally!) two minutes of e-mailing them. The representative was really helpful and worked with me to get the scale running properly.
If you have trouble turning it on like how I did, you should first try to tap it with your knuckles (with a bit of force, but not extremely hard) or grab a tennis ball and drop it from 4-5 inches above the scale. If it turns on, then it's probably not turning on properly because of how you're tapping it with your foot. The area I now tap is slightly below the display window (above the center of the scale). That seems to get it to turn on every time. Also, make sure you're placing the scale on a hard surface. The scale is very accurate, and my weight doesn't fluctuate like crazy compared to scales I've had before. I've stepped on it several times in a row to test that out. Awesome product, awesome service! I highly recommend buying from them!!

Reviewed by: T. Bailey, Naples, FL Review Date: 2009-10-05
After months of frustration looking for a bathroom scale that would be accurate and reliable I am finally happy to say I think that this one fits the bill. I have been on a pretty hardcore weight loss regimen for the last seven months and got sick of dealing with a series of bathroom scales that were inaccurate and inconsistent. It was a huge hit to my morale every time I got on and the weights fluctuated +- 2 to 3 pounds in a few minutes. After a lot of research here are the plusses and minuses I found:
PROS
1. Consistency - Get on the scale, get off, get back on. Repeat as many times as you want. You are going to get the same weight. No fluctuations or hickups. Biggest single thing I needed in a scale.
2. Accuracy - I actually brought this scale to my Weight Watchers class and compared to what they had (beam scale). Dead on accurate within .2 pounds.
3. Regular batteries - Doesn't take any fancy batteries. Put in the four AAA batteries that came with it and I was off and running.
4. Sturdy platform - Will not tip over. Base is sturdy and low to the ground. Plenty of room to maneuver.
5. Backlit Display - Don't have to hunch over to read this display. Its the biggest I have owned on a scale by far.
6. Easy activation - Just step on this scale. No hitting buttons to turn it on. No tapping. Step on and get a weight!
CONS
So far none. Will update in the future if that changes.
Would buy this scale again and definitely will be giving it as a gift to friends and family in the future.
Update: I contacted their customer service to inquire about the mechanics of the scale (my trainer wanted to make sure I didn't buy a scale that "remembered" my weight). Not only did one of the owners of the company actually pick up the phone, but he spent the time to make sure I understood my scale well. They seem to really stand behind these products.
FINALLY! A slim, reliable scale!!!! Dieters rejoice!
The scale before my purchase of this product was a heavy, bulky glass scale. Sure it looked nice, but due to small bathroom space, I couldn't leave it in one spot and still be able to shut the door. The old scale had rounded edges throughout, so I couldn't even sit it up on end to get it out of the way without risk of it toppling over. When the old one started giving me 4 different readings with each tap of the scale within one minute, I knew it was time for a change.
After looking at several diferent scales, I opted for the EatSmart Precision Premium Digital scale. There is another EatSmart scale on the market which got favorable reviews, but this one was newer and happened to be on sale and therefore cheaper. I felt a little pang of resistance because there was only 1 review at the time of my purchase, and (if you are reading this know you know what I mean) I rely on reviews in making purchases over the internet.
My purchase arrived within a week of order (I did not use expedited shipping). I took it out of the package and the thing that struck me first was how lightweight it was. I installed the four included batteries and away I went weighing everything in sight to see if I could get consistent readings. First up was my four year old daughter. She stepped on, stepped off, and stepped on again. Same weight! Next was my husband, who reluctantly performed the same task. Same weight both times!!
Next it was my turn. I, of course, was not about to weigh-in "group style." So I ran the scale up to my bathroom. I stepped on, stepped off, and stepped on again. Uh-oh. Different weight. BUT, I stepped on again and got the same weight I got the second time around. I did that three or four more times and got the same weight again and again. Afterwards, I went downstairs and read the owner's manual for the scale.
THIS IS IMPORTANT: IF YOU MOVE THE SCALE (AND I MEAN EVEN AN INCH OR SO), YOU NEED TO TAP IT ON AND LET IT TURN ITSELF OFF. THIS PROCESS IS WHAT MAKES THE SCALE ACCURATE. IF YOU MOVE IT AND IMMEDIATELY WEIGH YOURSELF, YOU WILL GET A DIFFERENT WEIGHT BETWEEN THE FIRST AND SECOND READINGS.
The LCD screen is bright and super-easy to read. Readings appear to be accurate . . . I correlated them with an archaic dial scale I have where you can roll the dial to zero the scale. One of the surprising finds for me about this scale is that it is so slim in height that my doors can breeze right over the top without coming in contact with it. That means in my ultra-cramped quarters I don't have to constantly reposition it. Awesome!!
I highly recommend this product. Go ahead . . . buy it. You know you want to : )
Everything is right about this scale except the following:
1) The product description should make it clear that this scale cannot be used on carpet and should be mentioned in the bulletpoint list.
The scale has strain-gauge sensors in each of its four feet, thus if they are on an uneven surface the scale will output multiple changing weights. i.e. it becomes an unstable system. This is even true for very low pile carpet of apartments, almost entirely flat though enough give to render the scale useless without a solid base. So, I cut a piece of Masonite approximately 11" square and put it underneath and it works well-enough to stabilize the scale. A 12" square would work better.
The product description should clearly indicate the need for hard floors while also providing instructions on using the scale on low-pile carpeted surfaces via an additional base which could either be sold with the scale or made at home. It is then mainly an issue of knowing in advance that hard flooring is needed, and those using the scale on low-pile carpeting will need an additional base. Providing customers with this information resolves the issue prior to purchase.
2) A previous anomaly has since been effectively addressed by the company. The company president called to discuss the issue. Not only did they acknowledge it existed, they already had a fix on the way and shipped out a replacement unit.
Because of this admirable customer service I have changed my earlier review from 4 stars to 5 stars - this scale and the company that stands behind their products deserves it.
It is both an excellent scale and value. It is also aesthetically pleasing. My first and remaining impression: I love it. And I enjoy interacting with it everyday.
Best bathroom scale ever
Reviewed by: John Smith, USA Review Date: 2009-12-16
I have had three other bathroom scales before. All of them measured with an error up to 1 lb per weighting. I had to hit them and step at least three times and average the result to get accurate reading. Makes you want to hit them harder every time.
But this scale is a blessing.
Here are my pros:
- Fine precision, measures right every time
- Big back-lit screen
- No need to hit it, just step on it
- Has a switch for pounds and kilograms - this was very important for me and it was not written clearly on the product description
- Looks nice, feels stable and well built
- Price. Normally you would suspect to pay a premium for the best product. But here you receive it for the normal price of other similar not so good products
Cons:
- My 2 year old likes it very much and weighs herself a lot for fun. Not a con actually :)
Conclusion:
If you need a bathroom scale, look no further, BUY THIS ONE!

Wow, this scale is sooo easy to use, just step on and your weight appears and flashes. All on an easy to read illuminated dial. Great for those early winter mornings in Michigan when it is dark until 8:00 AM. My old scale required me to tap it, wait for three zeros to appear and then I could finally step on it to get my weight recorded. And I had to turn on the lights to see the readout. Also note that the retailer turned my order around within 3 days....excellent service !

I remember the days when simple scales were just simple. Alot of the other scales had all these bells and whistles that I didnt need nor did I care for. This scale is a great "simple" scale that has minimum function ( just weight), but it seems to do its job pretty well. Its reliably accurate and definately pleasing to look at it. Overall, im satisfied with scale, especially what I paid for it.
Easy to use Scale

I've only just received this, but so far its been perfect. I actually didnt even own a scale before this, until I went to the doctor's last week and he firmly recommended that I lose some weight. I'm not the richest person in the world, so the fact that I got this for such a great deal made my day. Upon receiving it, just pop in the batteries, and lay it on the floor, and its ready to go. I'm assuming its accurate because it showed nearly the exact weight that the scale at my doctor's office said I am.
Overall, the scale serves its purpose, looks attractive, easy to use, and the screen is easy to read. I'd recommend this to anyone who is looking for a scale thats affordable and at the same time functional.

For such a amazing deal, I can't really complain. After using it a few times, I thought it was fine until I read some of the reviews. I thought I made a mistake so I decided to test the scale out using weights. I used a 5 gallon water jug to test the scale, which weighed around 45 pounds. But when I tested, the scale was on the dot every time, and at most it was off by a tenth of a pound or 0.1 lbs. Its easy to use, and I love the large display, which is really easy to read even without glasses. I give it 5/5 Stars.

I just got this scale to replace an older digital scale that broke, and I'm very impressed.
To weigh yourself, you step on the scale, wait about 3-4 seconds for the scale to stabilize, and look at the reading. The weight is easy to read -- large numerals with a backlight. The only drawback of the backlight is that it will increase battery usage. You have a choice of units -- pounds, kilograms, or stones.
The scale itself is very sleek and low profile. It's 11.8 inches (width) x 11.7 inches. Some scales (both digital and analog) make a clunking sound as you step on, but this is totally silent.
Like most digital scales, it has to be placed on a hard surface such as tile or wood.
Some digital scales have a "fake repeatability." That is, if you weigh yourself, and then hold a small weight and step on again, it gives exactly the same value. This scale doesn't have this undesirable feature. If you hold a small weight, it gives an honest result.
I measured the variability of nine readings. The range (max minus min) was 0.4 pounds, and the standard deviation was 0.12 pounds. This is excellent, and much better than my previous scale.
I think that the absolute reading is very close to correct, but I haven't had a chance yet to compare this scale to the one at my doctor's office.
The instructions warn that the glass surface is slippery when wet. It's not a scale you want to use after stepping out of the shower or bath.
I am so happy with this item that it has prompted me to write my first amazon review. I looked at scales for hours, and I decided to buy this one based off of the reviews. The first surprise was how nice this thing looks. The pictures don't do this thing justice! It just flat out looks better in person than it does in the pictures. I was not expecting this to be so sleek! It is about as thin as a couple of magazines stacked on top of each other (maybe thinner) and it has a very attractive glass surface. The next surprise was how accurate this thing is. I get very consistent readings. Last night I decided to do a little experiment. I weighed myself 3 or 4 times in a row and got 188.0 every time. I went into the kitchen and drank a glass of water. I then immediately weighed myself again and got a reading of 188.8. Thats good enough for me! The only con I can think of is not that big of a deal: you have to be pretty still while you weigh yourself to get the scale to lock in on your weight. If you were thinking about getting this scale - I say go for it!

great scale
Reviewed by: V. Stephens, Review Date: 2009-12-21
This is the best scale we've ever had. Was very inexpensive. It is stylish, and works well. You simply set kilo or pounds, place on a hard surface, and step on. If you move it (significantly) you have to reset it because it senses the surface and calculates weight based on the set. It does not sense anything under 10 lbs, and only holds the display for 10 seconds, then automatically shuts of, so you would have to get back on if you missed the weight. That might be a little confusing for some children or first time users. I have tried stepping all over the scale to see if it gives a different weight for different foot placement, but it seems to be the same everywhere. I have also picked up objects that weigh a few ounces to see if it is actually accurate ...and it is! This is a hundred times better than our options at the local stores (in it's price range).

Perfect for my whole family. Finally confident in my weights.
Reviewed by: K. Ruggerio, Review Date: 2010-02-19
I have anxiously awaited the release of this scale for some time and now that I finally have it I am even happier than I thought I could be. Everybody in my family is big. I am 6'4", 375 pounds, so the need for a scale that could handle my weight was actually relatively tough to find. After talking to the folks at EatSmart, they convinced me to hold out for this one and I am glad I did.
The platform itself is the biggest individual selling point for me. Its probably a good five inches wider than the last scale I had. It gives me piece of mind that I am being properly weighed and I don't have to worry about turning an ankle or worse because my feet are hanging off. The 440 lb capacity was also a must for me, and so far I have found it very accurate. It was within .2 lbs of the scale in my gym, so I am finally confident that I am loosing some weight. The backlit display is nice, but frankly unless you live in a cave I don't think you need it as the display is so big to start with.
The fact that this company also seems to stand behind their products is big for me. At 350+ lbs I have gone through a few scales over the years, and after talking with the owners at Eatsmart I would not hesitate to buy from them again. Probably the best purchase of my young Amazon career.
Awesome scale
Reviewed by: Army Wife, Review Date: 2010-02-21
This is by far the best scale I have ever owned. I love the oversized platform, the clean look of it and that it only requires two batteries. You get the same weight no matter how many times you step on and off right in a row. I did this with every family member in my home to be sure it was accurate. It was right on every time. The prompt delivery by the company was a big plus.
Great Product, Highly recommended - Easy To Use, Accurate!!!!
I received an email asking to review this product, and after a few weeks of owning the product I am able to give my humble opinion on such a wonderful product.
I would like to say that Eatsmart is an Awesome company, I had sent them an email asking when the product would be out and within the same day I got a reply with the release date. Now the cool thing was when the product became available I actually got an update email from Eatsmart informing that the product was available and the included a link directly to the Amazon.com page. To me that is a plus in ensuring customer assistance and satisfaction. Product arrive a day earlier then expected - niiiiice.
Finally about the product:
1.Awesome scale - is within a .2 margin of those really expensive scales as well as most of the scales I have used at clinics and fitness centers. (Weighs up to 400lbs)
2. The large platform (length & width) of the scale is great especially being a tall person, it allows for you to stand on the scale more naturally then regular everyday scales where you may need to adjust your footing a bit when getting onto the scale. (15 inches wide)
3. The large LCD display is another plus to the scale allowing you to get a readout whether lights are on or off in the room. Display lights - reading stays up for a few seconds after stepping off to ensure that you are able to your weight (4.25 inch LCD display)
4. Very low profile, sleek and sexy design. The tempered glass may at first give way for concern but after my friends and I have have weighed ourselves with weights ranging from 200 - 365lbs I can assure you this scale will hold up. Using regular (AAA) batteries is another plus takes from one having to search for a inferior lithium watch battery.
5. Quality x Value x cost - Can't be beat (In my opinion - but i did my fair share of scouring the internet looking, and researching in the end I kept coming back to Eatsmart and there fine line of products)
Overall I am very pleased with the company for producing such a nice piece of equipment that should be in everyone's home. Great product for the $$$
Absolutely Thrilled

Eat smart asked me to write a review on my new scale, which I am more than happy to do given how pleased I am. This is my first bathroom scale, although as a frequent traveler I have seen my fair share in hotel bathrooms and used quite a few of those.
Couple of things stand out to me. Its super wide and thin. No worries about slipping off it. Weight seems on the money and consistent. Takes regular batteries and is really really nice looking (the display is huge and lit up very very well). I will definitely be buying another for my guest bathroom and will happily recommend it to friends and family.
Kudos Eat smart.

I was looking for a scale and had been doing a fair amount of looking around the net in order to find one that would be both consistent and accurate. Well, I found this model that says it'll handle up to 440 lbs. I am about 6'1" and weigh 185.(according to the scale) I was a little apprehensive at first when I saw this model with all the others listed. I then began to read the small handful of reviews that were listed at the time. I simply wanted a unit that I could rely on and wouldn't have all the bells and whistles that are offered on some of the other brands/models. I didn't find out until later that the reason there were not many reviews was because this model was in fact brand new and had just come out.
My order experience could have been better but to be honest, I'm glad it happened the way that it did. The day the scale showed up at my door it was defective. I had un-boxed it, inserted the two AAA batteries which it came with, and turned it over, set it down, stepped on it, and nothing. For some reason it was not working. Needless to say it was a pretty basic problem and I was able to fix it and it has been working ever since. After I fixed it I contacted the manufacturer to let them know about the problem I had with my scale, and after I received a very fast response from them I was thrilled to be a proud owner of a new EatSmart scale. So, even though I had a problem at first I can honestly say that I can recommend this scale to anyone. The company will stand behind the product. Order with confidence! Three other of my friends and family have based on my experience.

I got this scale just for the "upscale" look. It's sleek metal with glass. They state that the lithium battery lasts a long time, so we'll see. It does take four rotations of the `zeros' to fly by before your weight is shown (to the half pound). It looks great and it's cheap. It's thick glass, so if your weight shows more than you expected, you can toss this sucker across the room and it won't break!
UPDATE: Almost five years and it is still working on the same battery!
I love the design of this scale, it seems to fit perfectly in my bathroom.
It's readout has been consistently accurate (no fluctuations of any kind).
I would recomend this unit to just about anyone.
It's been my favorite so far.
4 years and counting...

I've had this scale for over 4 years. It has moved with me three times. It looks great, and the glass design makes your bathroom look bigger because you can see through to the floor. It is a fabulous scale and very consistent. I don't notice any of the problems listed in the negative reviews and plan to buy one for my parents. I have noticed that it takes 1-2 extra tries when it's cold (below 50 degrees). My battery still works great after 4 years, and I use the scale 3-4 times a day. I love this scale!!
I have no idea why some people rated this scale so low. This was rated by Consumer Reports as the best of the best on their latest report on scales. I will take their word over the low reviews because of their extensive testing. This is truly a great scale at a decent price.
It says what I want it to say!

The Ozeri Gen II Digital MultiFunction Bathroom Scale features the latest generation of InstaOn sensor technology to display and monitor your body weight, fat and water ratios, all within seconds of stepping onto the scale. This Triple Function Bathroom Scale uses bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA), incorporating a person's age, height, gender and weight to accurately display results in increments of 0.2 pounds or 0.1 kilograms. Bioelectrical Impedance (BI) is a well established and respected method used to estimate body fat and hydration. Muscles, blood vessels and bones are body tissues with a relative high water content which conducts electricity easily. Body fat is tissue that on the other hand displays much less electric conductivity. With BIA, the Ozeri Scale sends a weak and harmless electrical current through your body to determine the amount of fat tissue. This weak electrical current is imperceptible to the user, and returns back data that is used together with the user provided weight, height, age and gender to instantly calculate body fat and body water ratios. The Ozeri Gen II Digital MultiFunction Bathroom Scale displays results on an easy to read bright 3.5" diagonal LCD screen. It also features built-in memory that can store up to 10 personal profiles each with individual measurements and monitoring so that your family members or friends at the gym can each track their progress. This Ozeri scale uses 4 latest generation G sensors to capture weights up to 440 lbs with industry leading accuracy. It also turns off automatically to conserve battery power, and runs on 2 included Lithium batteries for better performance than AA and AAA designs. Made of impact resistant tempered glass, the Ozeri Gen II Digital MultiFunction Bathroom Scale blends the latest in technology with a fashionable design. Your satisfaction is 100% guaranteed.
News InstaOn Technology captures the Weight, Body Fat and Body Water measurements upon contact.
Stores weight, body fat and body water measurements in memory for up to 10 different users
Uses 4 high precision G sensors to weigh up to 440 pounds (200 kilograms) in 0.2lb or 0.1kg increments

I was a bit hesitant after seeing some of the reviews, but i decided to buy it anyways because it was so cheap, and i was not disappointed. I had a really expensive similar Homedics scale from Bed Bath & Beyond for almost triple the cost before it broke down. This is just as accurate as my old one, if not better since it was so cheap.Setting it up was a tad bit easier than the Homedics one I had. But once you set it up, the readings are quick and easy. I would definitely buy again.

We bought 3 of their products after receiving an email promo from a friend. Very happy with the products and what a great deal. We had to contact them for an issue with one product that was not turning on and it turns out we had not removed the battery protective slip that it shipped with the product to prevent it from turning on during shipping. At first I was concerned with that one negative review about customers who bought and rated several products, but ending up buying 3 products based on the promotion we received, so not sure the others didn't do that too. Can't tell you how long the promotional prices will last as that wasn't written in the email, but these prices are great. BTW, one thing the manual was not clear about on the bathroom scale was taking off your socks for the Fat and Water readings. It took me a couple tries before I realized that.

We are vey happy with this scale. It came within days of ordering (including four AAA batteries). The scale is very attractive and accurate. It looks modern and feels well made. I love the bold numbers and bluelight, as now I can see my weight even in the dark!! The instructions states that you need to reset the scale (step on and off)if it is moved from it's place. It is not a poblem for us as we have the room to leave it be, but it's something to consider if you need to move the scale around frequently. I would say this is the best scale I have owned.

UNTIL PURCHASING THIS SCALE, I thought that the only accurate weight management tool was the high-priced scales physicians use in their offices...NO LONGER TRUE! This scale has it all, but most importantly, gives an accurate reading every time. My mother weighs every week after a Weight Watchers meeting on a typical physicians' scale and she has weighed directly afterwards on the OMEGA ULTRA THIN BATHROOM SCALE and the weight is correct down to ounces. At first I was just impressed at the sleek design and slender but sturdy-built design, bright blue LCD backlit area with easy read of weight without bending forward, and ease of use------no-nonsense readings......... but the ACCURACY says it all! I reviewed many, many digital scales before this one and while there were only 2 reviews on the OMEGA ULTRA THIN scale, I chose it because of the reviews...they were definitely honest and real. I honestly do not see how anyone could be disappointed in the decision to purchase this scale. The name says it all.........super sleek design, precision accuracy, and sense-on technology. And, it uses 3 "triple a" batteries, always easy to replace if needed. USA VITAMINS includes 3 with the scale already so you can hop on right away. Just follow the exact instructions in the short manual enclosed and you're on your way to an accurate weight management tool. Way to Go USA VITAMINS! Great customer service from USA VITAMINS TOO!

I bought this scale on the recommendation of a friend. I must say that I am really impressed. It looks really nice and always gives me accurate readings, compared to the scale at my gym.

I have a beaten-up, Taylor scale, that's about ten, plus, years old. I resisted getting rid of it, because it's the most accurate scale I've ever owned. It's spot-on with my Dr's very expensive scale and the scale at my workplace. But, in the last few months, it has gotten quirky. It remains accurate, but I have to jump around on it like a trampoline, to make it come on. It was time to say goodbye to my old faithful friend. It's so sad; we've shared so many diets together; so many successes and failures. Sigh!
I'm not sure why I settled on the Omega, with SO many choices, but I'm glad that I did. The scale is very thin and modern in appearance. It would be attractive in any setting and, it functions exactly as advertised.
I love the features including: auto on, the extra large LCD display, the weight units in kg, or lbs, the 0.2 lb graduation and the fact that it does come with batteries to get you started. I'm also glad there is a "lo" battery indicator.
Your weight is locked in, for approximately 10 seconds, after weighing. How cool is that! This affords an extra 10 seconds to berate yourself for failure, or maybe to bask in the victory of dropping a couple of pounds. More seriously, it would also be great for someone having trouble seeing around their expansive tummy---or perhaps to weigh yourself and then yourself with an object you would like to weigh---like your toddler, or the dog.
Popping in the batteries and, weighing in for the first time, only took a couple of minutes. And, I'm ecstatic, because I obtained the same weight as my old Taylor scale.
Because of the clean lines of the scale, it appears it will be very easy to keep clean, which is a bonus, too. I'm wondering about battery life, because this thing lights up like a landing strip, but it sure does make it easy to see, particularly if stumbling into the bathroom first thing in the morning, sans glasses or contacts.
I think this would be a great scale for seniors, or anyone with balance issues. The platform is large enough to accommodate almost everyone, unless you're Charles Barkley, but it's so low to the ground, that it might prevent stumbling.
Yes, I'm tickled pink! Of course durability will remain to be seen, since it has only just arrived. But in spite of being so thin, it appears sturdy and well made. We'll see, but right now, I'm happy, happy.

This scale is fantastic, the measurements and accuracy of this scale are top notch. Moreover, having the body water percentage feature allows you to really monitor the amount of body fat on you. For example, to reduce your PERCENT body fat, just drink more water and it will go lower, but if you subtract the water percent from your actual weight and body fat, u can really monitor the number of pounds of fat you have on your body.

The scale won't be as accurate as DEXA or underwater weighing, but it is sufficient to track changes in bodyfat. That is all I need to know, if my bodyfat is increasing or decreasing.
I recommend checking your bodyfat every day at the same time under the same conditions and using your weekly average to track your bodyfat.

i'm absolutely obsessed with weighing myself constantly to see how running a mile or drinking a glass of water effects my weight. i was looking for a consistent scale and i finally found one. Although I believe it consistently weighs me 1 lb less than I really am, I am happy to get a consistent weigh within 0.2 lb accuracy. For example, I can stand on the scale 10 times in a row and i'll get the same weight every time within .2 pounds. The body fat and body water I don't trust to be accurage, but they are very consistent (+-.75%) which is most important to me. Overall, this scale has surpassed my expectations with it's consistent results.

The Tanita BF680W Duo Scale is very simple to use and gives very consistent readings. I've been using it to monitor my body fat in addition to my weight. The key to getting consistent readings for body fat percentage definitely seems to be consistency in time of day the measurements are taken. I always weigh myself first thing in the morning.
The scale stores height, age, and sex information for 2 different users. It is easy to program these functions. The body fat percentage indicator goes in .1 increments. This is definitely a nice feature that many of the cheaper units do not offer. This is a great, simple to use product that I would recommend for anyone interested in monitoring not just their weight but also their body fat and water percentages.
