Reasonably Cheap, but consistent, (bathroom) scale recommendations?

Hello -
I weighed myself 3 times today, immediately after each other. But, I got 3 different numbers with a total spread of about 3 pounds. It's a very old scale, and is probably starting to go.
Can you recommend the brand or model scale I should get to replace it? I'm looking for something reasonably cheap, digital, and consistent. All I need it to do is give me my weight in pounds - doesn't need to do anything else fancy.
Thanks!

I have a Weight Watchers digital scale I bought at Walmart for around $30 Canadian. It's consistent for me. Make sure you're weighing on a flat, stable floor.0

I have this one and I love it! I'm like you...I don't want all the bells and whistles: just tell me what I weigh.

I have this scale as well, after careful consideration and a lot of research.
WE thoroughly LOVE it! I would recommend.0 -
I also have an EatSmart brand scale: http://www.amazon.com/EatSmart-Precision-Bathroom-Capacity-Analysis/dp/B00KQSOPUW?ie=UTF8&psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s02
It's really great. I would recommend any of the models that company puts out.0 -

Whatever model you choose, I'm told that you really can't go wrong with EatSmart.0

And I have another EatSmart model. It's very consistent, and available at Amazon for $35.

i have yet another eatsmart scale, and i've had it for several years. stand on it till it locks weight - takes a few seconds, and it will give the same weight no matter how many times - unless the battery is low, in which case i get random numbers within about a 1.4 pound area until i change the batteries.0

I have a weight watchers scale it was like $30 or so. It seems to be very consistent.0

You're looking at about $300

I have one of the Eat Smart scale models mentioned above -- it gets great reviews on Amazon, and it's consistent. Past scales I've used would give different readings if you weighed yourself five times in a row, the Eat Smart scale is definitely consistent. And affordable.
I liked the scale so much, I purchased one of their food scales, too.0
