    I used to have a basic WW glass scale. I used to weigh myself 3 times and average the result. I found that it seemed to latch onto a weight but if you got on carrying a heavy weight it would cause it to forget your last weigh in and the next time you get on it it would actually give you a reading.

    I chopped it in for a withings scale last month - much better.

    my scale gives me the same number...down to the decimal ever week....It cant be!!!!

    My WW scale does that too I have to re weigh myself multiple times and take the number that comes up more. I even have a Taylor digital that does this too. Thinking I need a newer one. Very disappointed when your working hard to lose and see it the same or a gain. Surface and time of day are consistent as are clothes. Any ideas?

    So glad to find this thread because I have been wondering about my WW scale. Last night I got on it and I had gained 4 pounds. I thought.....no way. how do you eat less and gain that much weight weight??? I reset it and and tried again. Then it showed I only gained 2 pounds. It fluctuates all over the place. If I weigh myself 5 times,I get 5 different weights. This is REALLY frustrating!!!!! I have had it a while and no longer have the box. Is there a better scale that I could buy?

    Mine is all over the place. It can vary between 5-6lbs in an hr. I have to step on it a few times before the number becomes accurate. It's a cool scale but even on a flat surface I can't rely on this darn thing

    I have the WW scale and I’m hating the inaccuracies. Yesterday, I ate 1210 calories, walked 15,673 steps, and I went up .8 lb. I reweighed myself three times and got the same weight. There’s no way I could have gained. My scale has not moved, I wear the same thing every morning when I get on the scale, and it’s on a flat surface. I may donate it to Salvation Army.

    MIne seems consistent and predictable. What I've noticed, however, is that it weighs me about 0.2 to 0.9 lbs. less than a new one I bought, a Withings Body+ Body Composition Wi-Fi Scale. Since I began my current fitness, health and wellness journey with the WW one, I'm continuing to use it as my "official" scale until initial weight goal is achieved. Then, I'll switch over. I do use the Withings one to notice the continuing trend of being higher than WW.

    I think the WW scale is good value. Bought mine at Costco a couple years ago and don't believe I paid much more than $20 for it. It, along with a tape measure, is all that's really needed for those on a budget.

    My WW scale is very sensitive to my uneven, creaky old floorboards. I have to position it direct over a floor joist and close to the wall, to get consistent readings.

    Mine aren't WW, but our scales calibrate if moved. And we've got nowhere to store them that they don't need moving to use. Weigh, let it calibrate, weigh again for the correct weight. Only a couple of lbs difference but not as consistent as post-calibration.

    To add to the necro thread, read this

    Daily fluctuations are perfectly normal.

    I got rid of my WW scales and replaced it with a Garmin one. The WW one was too innacurrate...it would give me 3 different readings, all about 0.5-1kg difference.

    Garmin will read the same weight each time each time I measure. And it has a wifi capability that connects with MFP
