Favorite Scale

I have a Fitbit and was considering the Aria scale. While browsing Amazon I see there are many high rated scales for under $50. What scale are you using and find to be fairly accurate?

I use the EatSmart one that was the best-seller on amazon. I picked it because I know nothing about scale manufacturing and one choice was as good as the next, so why not.

I like it. It's accurate. The batteries last for a long time. I can make it weigh me one pound less if I shift my weight forward. For many months, I did that, lol.

It just weighs me. It doesn't do body fat percentages, but I don't trust any scale to do that well. It doesn't automatically send my weight to any gadgets, but I enjoy entering my weight (especially when it goes down!) and looking at the lines.

I have nothing to compare it to, but it's been fine.

I love my Aria - syncs to Fitbit MFP and TrendWeight and is super accurate and looks good! I definitely think it's worth it!

I totally do that too! I can't help not lean forward and see that slightly lower number, I've been doing that for years so i figure i might as well carry on

OP i have a cheapy bathroom scale bought at tesco i think it was about £10 its pretty accurate as I don't weigh that differently at home compared to the doctors (especially when factoring in food consumption and clothes) and like Kalikel i like inputting my weight manually, not that I have a fitbit I can afford one at the moment, it gives me a great sense of satisfaction.

I have the Withings Wifi scale. I chose it over the Fitbit when I was at the purchasing stage because of better compatability with other services. I love it but can't speak to its accuracy because I don't have another scale to compare.

I have the Aria and find it to consistently give me the same weight.

withings wifi for me, and think it is one of the key factors to success... seeing that data auto populate into mfp is important

I love my aria. I used to accept 5 lb variations on my old scale as just mysterious body stuff but my aria never varies more than about 18 oz in any 24 hour period. Since I don't cage fight or binge drink I think that probably means it's more accurate LOL... I ignore the body fat data because I'm not sure any of them are reliable that way.

I have a Withings Smart Body Analyzer, and find it to be accurate. But it definitely is not under $50.

Thanks for the input. Been reading through all the Amazon reviews as well.
