Can you recommend a scale?

I know that scales have changed since the old spinning dial Health-O-Meter days. I know there are digital scales that measure weight, body fat and who knows what else.

Can anyone recommend a good, reliable scale?

    I love my weight watcher scale...let's up to four people keep a record. It was a gift but I believe they are on the low side of cost.

    I, too, have a Weight Watchers scale (sounds like the same one as above). It was $30 at Bed Bath & Beyond.

    I spent a lot of time researching this and came to the conclusion of the Tanita BC554

    I like it a lot ^.^

    In January I bought, EatSmart Precision GetFit Digital Body Fat Scale w/ 400 lb. Capacity & Auto Recognition Technology, from Amazon.com. Read up on all the components it has.

    Tanita for sure. Super reliable and accurate. Any digital scale is going to have a margin of error but find these to be super consistent.

    I got a health-o-meter at Walmart for about 30 bucks. It records, weight, BMI, body fat %, and hydration level. Plus like others mentioned, you can save data for 4 people at a time. It's awesome.

    I use a digital weight watchers brand scale (picked it up at walmart). It is very accurate and it doesn't give you 5 different readings if you step on it 5 different times in a row (had a huge issue with this on other digital scales).

    I had a cheapo I've used for years that would give me 5 weights if I got on 5 times, and only could do .5 of a pound.. I caved last month and got the WW scale from walmart that was about $50 CAD. I like having the .1 of a pound, and accuracy. Sure I fluctuate, but it helps me trend better.
