The design is beautiful, exactly how it's pictured. It is very easy to use after reading the instructions. Batteries were included which is nice.
Very compact and light weight for this kind of product.

Consistent, Quick, and Lasting

I used to have one of these before I moved. It might not have been the same model but it lasted for a very long time and was still working perfectly when I moved.
It takes some effort to set up. I see a lot of reviews about it being inaccurate, so I question whether they are standing correctly and wearing the same clothes every time or just wearing underwear like you should be. Or maybe just a defective machine as they can be from time to time.
Anyways, it worked marvelously when I was working out regularly to track my decreasing body fat. Did some manual body fat tests that gave similar results that the scale gave. Don't fool yourself though, a $50 scale will not give you a professionally accurate body composition reading.
I am definitely going to be getting another one.

100% Consistent

We tried EVERY scale in the store, it was pretty funny. We tried them multiple times on both the carpet and the hardwood aisle and moved them around. They all gave different numbers each time you stepped on them except for this one. It was 100% consistent no matter if it was on the floor or the carpet (which is very low-pile industrial carpet but another scale had a TWELVE pound difference between surfaces, most had a couple pounds difference). I don't plan on inputting any info, just using it to measure weight accurately.

Piece of junk

I purchased this after reading a bunch of online reviews, hoping it wouldn't have any problems. No such luck! It should have been easy to set up but the product wasn't responding to the things I was inputting until about the 10th time. After set up, I stepped on the scale and couldn't see the numbers from my vantage point (and no, my belly wasn't in the way). It would finally read my weight which I could only tell what it was because I could see the middle number and already knew about what I weighed. It then read error over and over again then immediately shut itself off. Will be returning and looking for something else.
