Weighs very consistently and accurately. I am not sure about the body fat indicator, it seems to fluctuate alot, even from day to day, although it stays within the same range. I figure it will at least help to judge if I am losing body fat as I up my work outs, hopefully the range will lower. Calipers are a better way to go if you simply want to measure body fat and don't need a new scale. Rating: 5 / 5 Easy to set up if you follow the directions. Weighs very consistently and accurately.

Setting the scale up was easy if you follow the instructions, but then you get the hang of it. Setting up profiles is done the same way as setting up the scale in general. Very sleek look and very stable, no creaking as you step on it. <br /> <br />Only slight problem that isn't even a huge deal would be waking it up. You have to slightly step on it for it to wake up and calibrate, but that's about it. Same goes for the profiles too, having to wait a little for it to wake up. The body fat percentage also seems to jump around a bit, but I use it mainly for tracking weight. <br /> <br />Other than that, I would recommend this scale because it does what it says.

The scale makes me 34ilbs LIGHTER than what I really am and it made my skinny 9 year old daughter 25ilbs HEAVIER than what she really is and as for my bony friend (she weighs 120ilbs) when she stepped on it, it said 188ilbs! 68ilbs HEAVIER!!! I thought it was the batteries, but I changed them 3 times AND bought new ones....the scale is STILL a piece of crap! Don't waist your money. Rating: 1 / 5 Very inaccurate!

This machine is either malfunctioning or my weight changes every 5 minutes by at least 5-6 lbs.....I find it totally inaccurate at weighting anything.. one minutes it is one weigh the next it is 6 lbs different.. Now really... I changed the batteries thinking it was that but no. <br /> <br /> It won't even weight a bag of 5 lbs of sugar correctly. <br /> <br />Save your money and spend a little more for a good reliable scale but not this one.........Very disappointed.....

Plus, the batteries get loose and it's such a pain trying to make it work. Don't waist your money buying something that won't work!!
