Pros & Cons

Pros

Couldn't be happier with the purchase. Pretty much the same scale except it only has two programmable *. It is reasonably priced.

As a competitive wrestler, this scale helps me keep my track of my weight. The body fat is fairly accurate.



Cons

Body fat percentage fluctuates regularly from 19% to 22%. On the unit i received, the upper weight range appears to be overstated by some 20 lbs. In those 4 readings my weight typically fluctuates with about a 7 lb. If you are a healthy male of female...  Read More

Quality


This one feels sturdy and wellmade just as the old scale did


It’s easy to use and looks like high quality to me


It lasted through almost 19 years of daily use but its electronics went kablooey late last year 2021


Once you get a hang of stepping on to it consistently and a set time for doing your reads you’ll get better more reliable values

Price


This is a lower price home use product which works for me


It may vary by a half of a pound but overall this is about as good as you can get for the price

Shipping


It arrived quickly and im very pleased

Competitiveness


I have tried it out alongside three other different scales and it appears fairly accurate


This scale gives you all the info you need to know and is accurate in comparison to my doctor’s number


So i never heard of tanita but i read about the brand in another scales reviews where the writer compared it to a tanita


I previously had a tanita bathroom scale that lasted over 10 years so opted to order the same brand
