Whynter Glass Digital Body Fat & Water Scale

When stepping onto this scale be sure to put your first foot to the center and then step up and redistribute your weight or it will tip over and cause you to lose your balance, and possibly fall. The scale works great and is accurate. I am pleased with this scale and would recommend it for it's accuracy, but would also caution about the tip hazard.

This is one gorgeous looking scale. Impressively precise on the body fat readings. I was tested 16% a month ago and the readings taken on this were on the mark or varied minimally. So far so good on my 2008 resolution.

I can step on this scale three times in a row and get consistent weight results, but three different body fat percentage and water results. It seems to change depending on how my feet line up with the sensors. It often says I am obese (far from it). Good value all in all, but not a reliable source for that particular bit of information.

This is a nice looking scale, though a little tipsy. To get on the scale, you first need to put one foot in the center to balance your weight, otherwise it will probably tip over and send you tumbling. The batteries in my scale were dead when I received it. It is a great improvement over weight-only scales, but I docked it one star for the inaccuracy in the body fat/water measurements. If your feet are a little sweaty when you weigh yourself, the water % will have a high reading and give you a low body fat % in return. If your feet are dry, the scale thinks you are dehydrated and outputs a high body fat % reading. However, I'm not sure there is any way around this problem with any of these types of scales. I weigh myself before going to bed and it reads anywhere from 24%-31% body fat. The weight measurement is quite precise however, giving the same reading each time if I repeatedly get on and off the scale.
