I'm looking to buy a new scale to track my weight. Does anyone know a good brand to buy? I also heard of BMI scales. Does anyone know if they are reliable? Thanks

    I also want to know the answer to this question. I want a scale that will tell me body fat percentage. But some scales cost $30 while others cost upwards of $200. And yet they seem to do the exact same things. What's the dealio?

    Definitely prefer the "Thinner" brand. Excellent scale. It's digital, gives you the pounds and ounces; body fat and bone density. Although the jury is still out (in my opinion) regarding the accuracy of the body fat measurement, I like the fact t hat you can store your weigh-ins and keep track of things.

    Bed, Bath and Beyond is where I got mine.
