What scale do you use at home?

What scale do you use to measure your progress at home? I think I need a new scale. We have a cheap Health-o-meter and it is so inconsistent. Case in point: this morning, I stepped on the scale and the first reading was 10 lbs over where I was yesterday! I stepped off and did it again and it was 1 lb over yesterday (which could be water). Then, a third time, it went up another pound! I just changed the batteries 3 weeks ago, so I think I need something that doesn't change every time I step on it. Any recommendations? I don't care about measuring body fat % or anything fancy. Most important to me is accurate and consistent readings.

    There is another thread on here just updated a few hours ahead of your post talking about bath scales. If you search for it you can see a lot of the opinions on that thread.

    BTW - I use the Withings scale and like it a lot but it is not for everybody.
