BFM884DQ1-60 Body Fat Monitoring Scale

In the last 6 years I've tried 4 different brands of scales and this one is my favorite! I bought this scale 3 or 4 years ago and I LOVE it! I am very obsessive about my weight, checking it every day, 3-4 times per day and this scale has always been accurate and informative. I can weigh myself 5 or 6 times in a row and I always get the same number! With the use and abuse that I've put this scale through I really am amazed it is still functioning. The batteries even lasted over 2 years before I had to replace them (and keep in mind that's me weighing myself several times throughout EVERY day). It finally died today, when the leg with the weight chip broke off, so I'm going to go buy another one. I wouldn't think of using any other brand/style! There are previous reviews that mention that the body fat percentage is off, but I don't find that to be true at all. It is possible to be a "fat, thin person". For example, if you are 5'3" and weigh 120 lbs but the scale says you have 30% body fat, that's nothing to freak out about. It just means that even though you're a healthy weight, you need to work on toning up & replacing the unwanted fat with muscle. I hope all of that makes sense and helps with the confusion.

It is everything and more that I was looking for in a weight scale.

Accurate, reliable - just as marketing materials described

Don't waste your money on this product because this weight scale is inaccurate. I didn't expect it to be exactly as in the doctor's office (maybe 5 lbs off or so), but the variations were so irrational, that I'm returning it to the store. The features look great, but if you want to check your weight accurately, find some other product that delivers what it promises. It looks fancy, and I read the reviews before making a decision. However, sometimes the variation was 15 pounds off, sometimes 9, at other times 12lbs (and that's on the same day!).

If measuring your body fat or tracking changes in your body mass index is important to you, this scale is an excellent tool and may help you become a fitter you. This scale can track up to four individual's body statistics at the touch of a button (four separate buttons). The digital read out and backlight make it easy to read in day or night light. To operate, the user stands on four metal pads on the bed of the scale, the metal pads send electrical impulses through the body to measure body fat, water content, muscle mass and bone mass in about 45 seconds. You may need to read the directions for set up and to understand the digital displays, but the step-by-step guide will have your scale ready to use in no time. I purchased this scale so I could conduct my own assessment at home. In the past, every time I visited the doctor's office for a Body Mass Index reading, I was required to make a co-pay. The day my scale arrived, I had just visited my doctors office and compared my new scale's results to the results from my doctor's office and found the results were identical. For the money, this is an excellent in-home tool.
