A weight scale that actually works?! Help!

I bought this glass digital scale from walmart, weight is upto 425 pounds. It's one of the more accurate scales out there. My dad was impressed and he bought one for himself. (it woke my dad up to his actual weight at the time. Didn't realize he was under 300 pounds). Kind of shocked him. Maybe off by .2 but it's more accurate then the 50 dollar weight watchers scale. I remember being frustrated and going through scale after scale until I found my current one.

Costs about 25.00 approximately.

I'll check to see which brand it was when I get home from work, but it's more accurate then any scale I ever bought.

The key thing that causes scales to vary from day to day is being placed no a surface that is not completely flat or has carpet on it. So can I check that your scales are on a flat, hard surface? Secondly, consider who the heaviest person who's going to use the scales is, and make sure your scales will cope with 20% more than that weight (so they aren't stressed by the additional pressure as people climb on them.) Then choose reliable digital scales, not the pointer type. Mine are a brand called Tanita and I've had them for ten years or more. I don't know how reliable they are but they are very consistent from day to day.

Here is a tip:
1. Get a digital scale for better accuracy
2. Always weigh yourself only ONCE every week, in the morning, after you go to the bathroom( To eliminate any water weight).
3. Pick a single FLAT surface in your house that will be the permanent position wherein you will weigh yourself.

Now you may be thinking, how will you know if what you weigh in that spot is accurate if the display is showing you different results on a different spot? The answer is: it does not matter. What matters is what you weigh on that spot. That will be your point of reference.
For example: You weighed 150 lbs on your chosen spot. 2 months later you weighed 130 lbs on that same spot. However, you moved the scale to a different spot and weighed 140 instead of 130. Does it mean you only lost 10lbs? No. You still lost 20lbs. The only difference is on the new spot, you might have weighed 160 instead of 150 two months ago. So the best thing to do is to focus on how much you have lost, not on how much you actually weigh.

Produex glass precision electronic scale is the one I have. It works and gives you an accurate weight as mechanical one will only it's digital. best scale I ever bought.
