I was looking at new scales today and noticed they have ones that analyze your body fat/muscle and hydration as well. Personally I've never seen this and wondered if they actually work. Are they fairly accurate or are they a waste. I would love to watch my body fat decrease as well as the weight but don't want to waste my money if this is just a piece of junk. I've seen several scales with this now and I also found just a body fat analyzer on a sports website. Any info would be appreciated.

Thanks

    I have one, and the BF% numbers match well with those calculated at my gym and with measurements.

    I have one too and the measurements it gives are very in line with calculators I've used. I have the Escali BFBW200 Body-Composition Scale and I love it.
