RE: Beurer PS25 Digital Bathroom Scale for Body Weight For a basic scale, you couldn't do better than this! I love the streamlined look and feel of this scale. It sits flat on the floor, has rounded corners, and has a jumbo LCD screen that lights up. Anyone should be able to read this with ease. It has a nice matte plastic casing so you're not stepping on glass. It's very solid. It doesn't rock as you get on and off. There is plenty of room for long feet without covering up the display. What I don't like about it is that it couldn't register my two 5-pound weights. So apparently, 10 pounds is too little weight to be measured. And when I weighed myself first, and then again holding my two 5-pound weights, the second total didn't come up to exactly 10 pounds more as I would have expected. Instead, with the extra 10 pounds in my hands, the scale reported an extra 10.6 pounds over my initial weight. I repeated the process several times, first weighing myself and then again with the weights in my hands, even moving the scale to another place on the hardwood floor. The results were fairly consistent with a fractional variation. However, each time I got off the scale, it remained lit up displaying my weight for nearly a minute before it finally turned off and reset. I don't think this scale has a memory, at least I didn't see any way to recall previous readings. It would be nice if it had one. The most disconcerting of all was the realization that I had gained weight. So, with this scale as my incentive, I hope in a couple of months, the big bright LCD will display a figure that's 10 pounds less. If it will do that, it'll be magic and worth every penny I paid. 😁 Read more
First time using a bluetooth scale and i love it. Fairly easy setup; i found it easier to use a different app (open scale) rather than the one recommended (beurer). I like how the scale measures BMI, water %, muscle, fat, and bone mass. I was also able to add my bf to my app. You do have to have the app open before stepping on the scale. Overall, very happy with this purchase. Read more
This is a wonderful scale. It has a large surface which eliminates instability. Large easy to read numbers, and it’s nice & slim to store in tight spaces. Definitely a heavy duty quality built scale. Read more
One of the base doohickys that meets the floor (bottom one on each corner) and contacts the electronic sensor broke off after a number of years. I was able to glue it back on and it lasted another number of months but then the piece fell off and got lost before I could try again. My wife wanted this same scale again because it had worked well over a few years. So I bought this one. I works well. My wife says she weighs 1 lb less than previous one which I thought makes them pretty accurate. It has a large dial which lights up when you stand on it. History of older one is good so I expect it to last. There are several less expensive ones that are rated well and might be thinner or lighter, but we stuck with tried and true. Read more
I was looking for a digital bathroom scale that is not glass-top for safety reason. There are very few available on Amazon. Beurer PS25 meets my expectations. Likes: - Non-glass top. - Accurate (compared to my other accurate digital bathroom scale that I have been using for many years). - Consistent readings. - Easy calibration - Common 2 AAA batteries (included) - BIG backlit contrast display. - Easy calibration. - Step-on for instant reading, not need to tab first then step on like my other scale. - Light weight. - Simple style and white color. Dislike (minor): The top plastic surface is too smooth and slightly slope downward. It feels slippery even with dry feet. So I applied 3 inch clear anti slip tape, which is commonly used in a bathtub, on the surface. Easy improvement! Important: - The scale must be placed on a hard surface for accurate reading. When I placed on a carpet floor, reading was many pounds lower than the actual reading. - Before the 1st use the scale must be calibrated by lightly taping with one foot for 1-2 seconds. The display will briefly show some weight number and then 0.0. Wait until the display turn off. The calibration is done. Read more
I had some random-brand-name scale before this that I bought for cheap on Amazon, but it didn't read very accurately and later a part on the bottom broke. I have a Beurer blood pressure monitor with bluetooth and I like being able to keep track of that on my phone, so I figured I would give a Beurer scale a try. It seems well-made and after I paired with the app it worked immediately. The readings transfer to the app very quickly. I've used it several times and the readings all seem to be within about 0.2 lbf. This precision is plenty good enough for me. It seems accurate too although I haven't bothered to validate that. Overall I am very happy with this scale so far. Read more
Very nice and stream-lined looking. It seems to work great. My problem is with the packaging. I wish Amazon would put the product box in a separate cardboard container. It makes it less likely to get damaged and allows for "gift giving". (No delivery label on the product box) It also keeps the product confidential to anyone who sees it lying on a porch or delivery location. I know it adds cost and probably isn't necessary for this type of product but on more costly items it should be a must. In all I am satisfied with the product and Amazon's delivery which was very timely. Read more
