Weight Watchers Scales by Conair Bathroom Scale for Body Weight Digital Scale Glass Body Scale Measures Weight Up

I'd owned an earlier model Weight Watchers scale that was digital but pretty standard scale construction, plastic housing over the internal works. I was purposely looking for an upgrade with the heavy glass base because I'd read they were more stable, not subject to as much variation in readings as the older kind. I'd been happy with my previous WW scale so I was VERY happy to find a glass one like this and at a good price on Amazon. Yes, I read the reviews where some people said the "tap to weigh" feature gave them troubles, but my previous, older WW scale worked the same way, so there wasn't any learning curve for me. Now, that said, this model does require a pretty meaningful TAP - where the old, cheap model just took a toe tap, this one requires me to clonk it pretty good with the front of my foot, but once I wake it up like that, it sets to zero and you step on and get your weight a second or so later. The platform is VERY sturdy - surprisingly so! I expected it to be thinner material, but it's quite substantial. The four legs and the heavy glass make it very stable. My older WW model had a much smaller overall platform and was not stable at all, and if you stepped on it wrong it'd try to tip. I don't think you COULD tip this model over at all - it has a much wider platform than many scales I've seen and is very stable on the floor. I did the usual thing to check a new scale, stepping on and off several times to see if it'd repeat the reading - it did, down to the ounce! I took a 15 pound weight out of my home gym and stuck it on there - it weighed 15.1 ounces, which I'm more likely to attribute to the weight manufacturer than anything else, but even if you want to argue it was truly off .1, who cares? Overall, I'm extremely pleased with this purchase. High quality, substantial build, accurate, stable and an excellent price. Go for it! Read more

We were looking for a second weight watcher scale to have in our rv. We actually returned this scale simply because our old eyes needed a backlight display and in all my research I failed to notice this choice did not have it. We both stepped on the scale to determine if it would work for us and quickly realized I had missed the backlight. It weighed accurately when compared to our current scale and the display was large. We had chosen this one as we liked the rounded top that provided a handle to easily store and move around the fifth wheel. For us the need of a lighted display trumped the handle. I would recommend it to anyone that isn’t needing the backlight. Read more

My old Weight Watchers scale finally stopped working after 15 years. This is a nice replacement. Seems sturdy. Readings are accurate and display is easy to see. I would advise keeping the box if you plan to move to keep the scale intact. Read more

They seem to weigh correctly and are nicely built. They can be hard to read unless the bathroom light is on. Read more

I am very happy with this scale. I didn't really want one with a clear glass platform, but couldn't find anything I liked the looks of, so went with this. Now I love how it looks on my ceramic-tiled floor. But the important thing is how it weighs. I think it's very good. For all I know, it could be a pound or two off, but does that really matter? All I care about is whether the numbers go down (yea!) or up (boo hoo!). I'm not going to drive myself nuts getting on and off every 5 minutes like some people seem to do. I do, however, always weigh, step off, then weigh again (just my own quirk), and the weight is always exactly the same. I feel confident using it. So I think it functions just as it should and it looks great and the price was certainly right (saw this exact model in a store right after I ordered from Amazon, and it was $8 more, plus tax). The only reason I didn't give 5 stars is because of the stupid sticker that comes on it. As others have mentioned, there is a large,very hard-to-remove red sticker showing where you "tap" the scale (the middle of the glass platform) to turn it on. No matter how I tap, the scale does NOT turn on. Instead, I stick one toe under a corner, slightly lift the scale up, let it set back down on the floor and it comes on. Don't let this deter you. It's kind of ridiculous, but no big deal. Overall, I am VERY happy with this scale. Read more

Be patient when setting up your new Weight Watchers scale. When I first opened it, like most people I did not read the directions thinking how hard can this be, right? Well...I unscrewed the battery cover on the back, removed the little red protector and screwed the cap back on. The digital glass scale only flashed "Lo" once and then wouldn't read anything else, not a single digit. I returned to read the reviews hoping to find an answer fearing the worst...I might have to return it. However, after re-reading the product description page on Amazon I found the answer - MAKE SURE TO PUT THE TOP BATTERY UNDERNEATH THE LITTLE METAL FLIPPER, THEN SCREW ON THE CAP. Once I did that, voila my new Weight Watchers glass scale booted up, went to 0.00 lbs and then I was able to weigh myself. I gladly and confidently give this product a 5 star rating. I'll return after using it for 30 days to update my review if needed. Read more

This Scale Varies In Its Weight Readings. I Have Found, That One Needs To Step On The Scale And Get The Reading. Then, Get Off Of The Scale And Let The Numbers Clear Off. Then, Get Back On The Scale And Get A Second And Third Reading. I Have Found, That The First Reading Is Not The Same As The Second And Third Reading. Also, Note That This Scale Has A 10 Year Warranty. The Company Really Stands Behind The Product. However, I Have Had To Have My Scale Replaced Due To The First One Stop Working. Read more
