The scale is very sleek and attractive and appears well made. More importantly it does what it says it does, and does it well. In addition, live, personal customer service is at the end of a phone to explain what to do if you do get lost. My problem was quite minor, just didn't realize there were three types of weight available on the scale, rather than the usual two. This one has lb, kg, and stone. I had stopped after kg assuming I had arrived at lb. imagine my surprise. Other than price, which is quite reasonable on Amazon for this level of features, the features themselves are actually helpful. Most of the 'detail info' scales have weight, bmi, and either water or fat or bone. some have four, Ozeri has five. BMI is not included, which I was glad to see. BMI has come into question recently, particularly for people at either end of the weight spectrum and the elderly, and very young. Knowing my bone mass, fat percentage, water percentage, and muscle percentage is far more useful and probably accurate method of tracking status or progress. The scale appears to be accurate in weight however I can't compare the other measurements precisely with no way to compare them. However I find they are useful and actually will allow me to be aware of areas which I should watch. If you are looking to track on an APP, this won't make you happy, however if you have a fitbit, or other such device, logging weight is not difficult at all. At first I considered the more costly APP geared scale, but two things held me back. One was no phone support and four vs five tracking areas, theirs uses the less useful BMI. In addition, while reviews are personal preference geared, some said that software was not being kept up to date by the company, which could make the whole experience frustrating. For three times the price, who needs frustration? For all of it's detailed information, the scale is easy to set up. I do find it difficult to remember all of the other numbers even though they keep scrolling for a few moments after you get off the scale. This I believe will get easier in time as I learn which are which. Cool blue numbers, if a bit smaller than my old eyes like. still large enough. The range numbers do not change daily, so a slight change is not crucial. Weight however is, and the weight read is quite ample in size. All in all, I would recommend this scale to almost anyone interested in taking charge of their overall health, learning what is important to watch or even change. For slightly more than a one function digital scale, having this information is a spur to pay attention to other aspects of 'weight' and health. They say the scale is easy to set for multi users, tho I do not require that feature so can't say, but if it's as easy as the single set up it should be simple. Somehow, the scale 'knows' who is getting on it, and it does that quickly and well. Read more

In general I love this scale; for the price it tells you a lot and seems fairly accurate. I bought this when my 3rd child was 3 months old because I didn't have a scale in the house and wanted to see how well I was getting back to my pre-pregnant weight. Plus I wanted to monitor my hydration, since, as a nursing mom, I sometimes forget to drink plenty of fluids. I also looked at this scale as a long term investment. Most similar scales only allow 4 profiles, but I thought as my son gets older it would be nice for all 5 of us in the family to have our own profiles. Enter the quirks of this scale. You should be aware of the following before purchasing. They aren't all that big of a deal but might be a deal-breaker for some people: 1. Although you can store up to 8 profiles, you cannot set any profile age for younger than 10 years old! My oldest will be 10 soon, so I figured it would be close enough for her, but if you envision this as a family scale and have young children, you might want to be aware that you will not be able to program an accurate profile for them. That said, I don't know if that factors into any of the ways it calculates things. For my 7 yr old, I just put in age 10 and her height and it *seems* to work, but just how far you can stretch it, I'm not sure. Will it believe you have a 3 ft 10 yr old or will it malfunction? 2. Despite what the manual claims, you cannot just step on the scale if you want an accurate weight measurement. We have been sure to put it on a hard level surface, but when it turns on upon stepping on it, it's actually never zeroed properly at first. It usually reads about 4 lbs before going to zero. I discovered this by trial and error. As a scientist, I like to get a feel for the measurement error in devices such as this, and I soon discovered that the first measurement was always about 4 lbs more than subsequent measurements, and that the 2nd, 3rd, 4th, etc. measurements were all within about 0.2lbs of each other. I even experimented with which foot I put on the scale first, figuring that maybe I was leaning weird somehow, but it seemed to make no difference. Then my husband told me that he always steps on it just hard enough to turn it on, then takes his foot back off for a moment. He notices that when he does this, it reads 4lbs instead of zero at first, then it goes to zero, then he steps on to weigh himself. After following this procedure, the measurements I get when weighing myself give good agreement, no matter how many times in a row I weigh myself. 3. The "unit" button. I admit, I didn't read every word of the manual at first, and skipped over the part about changing the units the scale measures in. Thus I was unaware that there was a unit button on the *bottom* of the scale! This is a really stupid design, because often when you grasp the scale to move it, you inadvertently depress the unit button. The scale need not be on for this to register, and I was perplexed to find the scale suddenly measuring my body weight in "stones," til I read the manual and discovered the unit button. Again, as a scientist I am definitely in favor of being able to change the scale so that it reads in kg instead of lbs, but "stones?" Who the heck needs to weigh themselves in "stones??" Plus I think they could have found a better placement for the unit button. So bottom line: I've found a way to work around these quirks and get good use out of this scale, and I don't regret the purchase, because, again, it was so affordable for what this scale does. But personally I'd have liked to have been aware of some of these quirks before purchasing. Thus why I'm passing them onto you, the potential customer :) Cheers! Read more
