Bathroom Scales

Does anyone have any recommendations for a good and accurate digital bathroom scale?

I'm pretty happy with my Smart Weigh DVS-150. It's fairly nice to look at as well, for what that's worth.

Why?

I found a Withings scale in a clearance bin. Still wasn't cheap but is good. But if you don't want the connectivity, then pretty much any of them are decent. You want it to be consistent more than accurate, and use a trending application (Happy Scale, Libra or trendweight). Don't worry if it doesn't "agree" to the doctors or a gym scale, just pick one and use it consistently. So same time every day or week (depends on how often you want to weigh) in the same situation (first thing, after using the bathroom with similar clothes on).

I get up, pee, weigh myself in my underwear and then get on with my day.

One thing about some of them though. Some are programmed that if your weight doesn't move much, it will show the last weight. So you may want to step on it with one foot to reset it, and then weigh yourself. Depends on the scale.

Not the Weight Watchers ones that's for sure! they have to be re-calibrated each weigh in or they read the exact same as previous reading.
I had a set of Salter digital ones which were great (wish I'd bought the newer version when they gave up the ghost )

I like my Health-0-meter,seems very accurate like what I weighed at
weight watchers. I have had it for a long time, hope they are still out there.

I use the cheapest one I could find. I really don't care about the number, I just want to see it trending in the right direction! My doctor has a real expensive one, and there is one at the gym if I care to know the real number.

I like the Aria scale that syncs to my Fitbit and this app
