I bought a new scale today - Weight Watchers brand by Conair. Any thoughts? I wanted a Tanita but I guess that Bed, Bath, and Beyond no longer carries them. :( Any thoughts on the WW scales? :smile:

    I have a glass WW scale. I love it. Very accurate.

    I have a WW scale. It's very consistent.
  • I have a Tinita and I don't think they're worth the price. The scale part works great, but the body fat % part isn't accurate. My scale was consistently saying my body fat was around 30%. I had it tested at my gym with a handheld tester (which is also known to be not so accurate) and it said 23%! The first thing the gym employee asked when I said my scale at home says differently was "Is it a Tinita? They're notorious for being wrong if it's near moisture." Low and behold I keep mine in the bathroom, where it sees plenty of steam from the shower everyday.

    You're probably better off w/the WW scale. I'm not a big fan of the cheaper tanitas.
  • So glad to hear all that positive feedback! I really like it so far (even if it added 3 lbs on top of what my old scale was saying!). :smile:
