Hello, can you help please? I need to get a digital precision scale. I cant afford anything expensive, what do you recommend?
Thanks in advance for your help.

    I got a not-too-shabby Century 21 digital scale. Its glass top and reads every .2 pound. It was $10 at Ocean State Job Lot, so its relatively cheap! They also have 20-30$ ones by Weight Watchers and other brands. Walmart has had some decent scales before, as well.

    Most scales are reliable... just make sure you weigh yourself on the same spot of a hard, level surface. I weigh myself in my kitchen because it's the most reliable spot. I've never spent more than $20 on a scale.

    I bought mine at Walmart. I think it was like $20. It's digital and glass. It measures body fat too but I don't think it's accurate at all so I don't use that feature.

    I've used the same glass-top digital scale for years and paid less than $20. It doesn't do anything fancy like sync with anything or tell me BMI or other stats, but it is reliable for weight and that's what counts.
