This is my scale. I'm pretty happy with it:
http://www.walmart.com/ip/Taylor-7519-Ultra-Thick-Glass-Digital-Scale/11089592
It sometimes gives an "error" the first time I step on, but then works the second time.
It's been accurate, as far as I know, and I got it on sale for $20.0 -
I have a real problem with electric scales! I never really trust them because I can weigh myself and then get off and back on again, and my weight can go up by like 5 lbs in the space of 10 seconds! I think they are really sensitive sometimes so I find the old scales are the best!
I have one from walmart that is digital and the biggest difference is about .2 It works great. IT will also store up to 4 weights if you so choose. I thought that would be useful, however turns out it is not like I can't remember from one weigh in to the next, plus the kids mess with it often, (you gained 120 pounds today! after my 4 year old steps on it.)0 -
Another vote for the fitbit aria scale :-)0

I use my Wii board and Fit Plus because it's what I have. It matches my Dr.'s scale so I'm happy.

I was using my Wii balance board, but found it to be under-weighing by a LOT.
Eat Smart Digital Bathroom Scale ($29.95) Guaranteed to be 100% accurate. Doesn't matter where in the bathroom it is, or how many times you step on and off it, it reads the same.0 -
Mine is by Thinner and I love it. It seems to be pretty accurate. We use it to weigh our cats a lot and it always says the same as the vet. (My husband and I don't go to the doctor, so we never get weighed by doctors' scales).
My scale is similar to this one but clear instead of black:

Use a digital scale from Walmart that matches exactly what the doctors office scale reads. It runs approx $35 and we have had it for 1 yr. 8 mo. Can read and save up to 4 different people while saving your weight each time you want it too. It will keep track of your weight loss and other things like body fat, water, and bone mass. Also will weight up to 400lbs and has a wide base. It
is called the HEALTH-O-METER
FYI ON ELECTRONIC SCALES - do not leave in the bathroom, keep it in a room with no moisture
for food to measure meat, ect. I use the little electronic postal scale. It measures up to 3lbs in ounces and kg.0 -
i only use a food scale.0

I have seen this topic posted a number of times, so I just put some information about BIA scales on my blog: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/blog/GrammaBonnie/view/bia-scales-407658
I have addressed the issue with variations in digital scales, too!
I hope this helps!0 -
This is my scale:
http://www.walmart.ca/en/ip/thinner-precision-round-digital-glass-scale-with-analog-dial/139670
I can get off and on it 3 times in a row and get the same reading each time, which makes me happy. It was also fairly inexpensive ($35cdn).0 -
I have a super-basic mechanical scale I got from a supermarket (it cost about £4). I like that I don't need to worry about batteries, and I can just set it to 0 by turning a dial.0

Same here! Bought it over 2 years ago and it's never let me down. Love having a record of the last 2 years of records online to look through and analyse. I'd be in heaven if it synced with MFP!0 -
I use my gym where i go work out sometimes and I also use my tape measure to see where I am at.0

Was thinking of buying this one on Groupon today:
