The scale that I have is really annoying right now, it is either .2 pounds over or .4 pounds under, I know because i place my 5 pound weight on it before i step on. I know its not a huge difference but i would like to start taking pics on my weight on the scale and i cant if the number is not accurate. So whats the best scale out there today???

I love my EatSmart Precision Digital Scale (http://www.amazon.com/EatSmart-Precision-Bathroom-Capacity-Technology/dp/B001KXZ808/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1386558477&sr=8-2&keywords=digital+scale). I bought it around March to replace an old scale that was consistently off by several pounds. It is accurate, good quality, and a good price. It came with a tape measure, too, so that I could measure my progress in that way as well.0

I have a Taylor lithium I've had for years. It says it's guaranteed to be within .5 on a regular basis. It's never been too high or too low (unless I am....lol). It's been pretty close to what my dr 's scale says when I weigh with clothes on. I weight about the same time everyday and use my scale as a guide.If my scale says I'm up, it's not lying.0

....and I recommend when checking into a scale, READ THE REVIEWS. People are not going to lie about a product. You'll get all sorts of answers for with to draw your conclusion.0

I'm going to keep my eye on this thread! My scale says a different number every time I step on it, even if there's only 15 seconds in between.0

I have a Homedics scale that I love. It has always been accurate. I can step on the scale 10 times in a row and get the same weight. And if I weigh myself with clothes and then weigh in again at the doctor's I get the same weight.
The only complaint I have is that it won't read my body fat. It always tells me there is an error. But it reads my husband just fine, so I think it just has an issue with me. We thought I just had too high of a percentage for it to read at first, but now I am down to a percentage we know it read for my hubby and I'm still getting an error. So I gave up on that particular feature. Sexist scale.
Seriously though, it is awesome.

I like the Weight Watchers scale. It measures weight, bmi, body fat, bone mass, and body water.0

I've been using an Ozeri scale for about a year now and have no complaints. Also been quite happy with their food scale.0

I have a Fitbit Aria scale. It's very accurate and consistent. Plus it auto syncs with Fitbit and MFP so there's no hiding from a weigh-in. ;-) It's a little spendy, but worth it.0
