Pros & Cons
Pros
There are thousands of bmi body fat scales here on amazon, so choosing one can be overwhelming. A scale like this one helps make sense of what might otherwise be disheartening ups and downs.
It was delivered in good packing and worked great. I got it when it was on sale, it's a buy for sure, if it's on sale.
Cons
Scale won't measure any weight until it is configured using a phone app. Body fat is 12%+ over what it should be. It fluctuate even in two consecutive readings within 5 seconds. The weight is really accurate but the accuracy of % of body fat and muscl... Read More
Not touching router for this. Given how awful the app is, you need to be diligent. The seller refuses to replace the scale.
Buyer beware if not purchasing shipped through amazon. I am happy to pay a premium for a premium product, but how they’ve handled this is disappointing. Do not expect any kind of support from withings.
Highlights
Quality
The body has quickly become my goto and i highly recommend it to anyone looking for a highquality smart scale
Its accurate all the time and it doesnt allow you to trick it by putting more weight on one of the sensor they are very well calibrated
It suddenly stopped working and is now stuck on the setup screen
No buttons to press or app to open when doing a weigh in
Price
I see that less than a week after i ordered it the price dropped by about 30
I tried to get a price adjustment and apparently amazon doesnt do that so they told me to return and reorder
I got it when it was on sale it’s a buy for sure if it’s on sale
Thought about getting a cheaper scale but glad i got this one
Packaging/appearance
Packed greatsolid and i’m lured the batteries that last a long time
Competitiveness
While i have other health apps such as oura garmin apple health this one provides additional information on weight and body composition
Doesnt come across to garmin connect although there are other sync apps that can transfer more
And now that i have updated the app it is doing a much better job interfacing with the apple health app
This is similar to the fitbit scale but adds bone and water
