Morning everyone :) I just have a quick question if ya'll don't mind. I was given a digital scale that is really messed up, saying that I weight 190 one minute and then the next saying 260,240,and then up to 290..WOW! So yeah, needless to say it's broken. I am really looking forward to buying a new scale as I start at the gym on the 1st and would like to do the club challenges on here.

Anyone know an excellent scale in the price range 20-60 dollars?
Whether it being online or at a store I really would like a digital if possible that can read weight and body fat percentages.

TIA everyone, I've been going nuts just because I don't know what brands to trust :confused:
 
Be aware not to trust the fat scales too much, they have sensors for your feet, but this only travels up one leg and down the other - doesnt count the rest of it.
It will give you a guide but probably wont be very exact :)
 
hey

maybe your scale needs batterys , i got a scale like that for christmas , fluctuates jus a lil bit everyday !
 
if you check out sites like or even - they have reviews of a lot of the brand name scales out there.

I have a weight watchers ww43 digital scale - not a lot of bells and whistles, and while i have a hate/hate relationship with it - and question it's accuracy sometimes.. and it will read a different weight depending on where onthe bathroom floor it is... according to the scale at my gym - my scale at home is accurate within about 2 lbs..

I would check the batteries in your current scale -- it sounds like they are dying
 
I have one of those digital scales that do your body fat and hydration level.. It says that I have 43% body fat but when I was 'taped' by my recruiter the measurements came back 30% body fat.. So I don't put much into my scale.. GL finding a new scale.. Before you buy one check batteries in the old one!:)
 
They are not all they are cracked up to be. A standing scale should be used for weight only. They cannot determine fat content.
 
happy with mine

I just brought a hydration + body fat + muscle content scale from Bios Fitness. I know none of the body fat scales are 100% accurate (due to natural fluctuations like your hydration level), but me and my sister used it and they definitely can tell the difference between the two of us, consistently mine is lower than hers. I will still use a tape measurer though ;)
