Good Digital Scale?

tracymayo1 · July 2014

Just wondering if anyone has a brand to recommend? I have one of the older scales with the red pointer - which is not accurate, because it changes the reading as I step on and off of it. It also is very hard to read, and I cannot tell if there is a percentage of pounds lost - I don't want to spend TONS of money either though...

Eat Smart Precision Scale is great. I just went to the Doctor and the numbers matched exactly. No surprises. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001KXZ808/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I bought the Weight Watchers Scale which also measures Body Fat. Can program up to 4 people. I ordered it from Bed Bath and Beyond, total cost including taxes just over $53.00. It was delivered right to my door and no shipping costs.

I bought one on Amazon for like $20, it works fine and it's the only scale I use (other than the dr's of course).

I've had that one since the beginning of 2011 and have been extremely happy with it!

Mine is an Ozeri, and I love it.

I've been very happy with it. No complaints whatsoever!

And the PP who recommended the Ozeri kitchen scale, I have one of those, too, and love it.

This is what my husband and I use. It has served us fairly well over the last few years and didn't break the bank to buy.

I was actually planning to get a suggestion on this, too. Thanks for asking!

For the Weight Watchers Scale, how accurate is the body fat reading? In other words, have you been able to compare with an accurate reading from another source? I ask because I also have a scale at home that is supposed to read body fat percentage but does a very poor job of it. It's off by as much as 10%.

Does anyone else have a scale that measures body fat with relative accuracy? Has anyone used the Aria scale that syncs with the Fitbit and MFP?

I have this one http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00A8SLH8I/ref=olp_product_details?ie=UTF8&me=

It stopped focusing on a weight last month, kind of jumped around and eventually would time out without settling on one weight. So, I called the company, and they sent a replacement free of charge. We've moved twice since we bought it, and they said that was probably the cause of the balance going out of whack. I'm happy with it, and it was only $25.

That's the same Eat Smart scale I have and another poster mentioned. :bigsmile:

Wow right off the bat I see just the brand I was going to recomend. It is so accurate and I love that I don't have to tap it or should I say stomp on it to get it to turn on and then wait like an hour for it to be ready. This one is so much easier and consistant.

chaoticdreams · July 2014

Eatsmart scale.

I use this one as I like the wider platform. So far, it's been very accurate, even matching my Dr.'s office. I've had it about 2.5 years

I calibrate it every morning as I have to slide it out from the wall, but other than that, no complaints.

Get the EatSmart brand that everyone is recommending. It is a very consistent scale, unlike the previous one I had.

Avoid the bodyfat scales. The bf readings are so inaccurate that they're useless.

I use the Withings wireless scale. It uploads my weight to MFP every day.

veg56kg · August 2014

I bought one from walmart called 'Health O Meter' Ive had it over a year and havent had to change batteries, it save previous weights for two people. I also have an 'Ab doer twist' I got as a gift. It tells you your weight,body fat percentage, how many calories to eat, how much water is in your body etc I think its great

Good Digital Scale?
