Accurate bodyfat bathroom scale?

I've been looking at some on the web. Are any of these even close to accurate? Any recommendations, or do I just bite the bullett and order calipers?
Thanks
 
They're pretty inaccurate. If you do end up getting one don't take what it tells you very seriously. Calipers are more accurate, but even they are not completely accurate.

I agree. The most accurate way to test BF is hydrostatic tests. Universitys usually conduct them. Actually, I have an appointment next week to have one done.
 
I use one to see what kind of progress im making. I dont really care what the number says, just as long as it keeps getting lower.

I use this one.



Just for the record it is accurate within 1% of my local gyms Tanita TBF-310PRO.
