Customer Reviews

This product has a lot of neat (if not entirely useful) features that are fun to play with. It tracks weight, body fat, muscle, visceral fat and what age it thinks your body is (as opposed to pure biological age). Additionally, it stores the highest value for each of those items over time, so you can see how you are trending; which is exceptionally useful.
The reason I took a star away from a perfect score, is a small detail about the body fat calculations. Typical BIA devices generally modify the calculation for how much body fat you have, based on if you meet the guidelines they typically call "athlete" (meaning that you exercise more than 5 hours a week at a fairly intense level). This BIA device does NOT provide that functionality. If you fit the category of a regular intense exerciser and are female, you will find that it estimates a body fat percentage up to 5% more on this device than other BIA devices which have the athlete calculation (such as the Omron hand held BIA or the Tanita scale BIA).

This scale is very accurate. It's important to read the instructions--it will pay off to do so--but once you've read the directions, it's very easy to use. It's lightweight. The functions help you monitor your body composition and make adjustments in your diet to increase muscle mass and decrease body fat by monitoring your Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) and helps you determine the number of calories your body requires to maintain a healthy weight. The visceral fat measurement is a bonus to help you determine your risk of serious health issues.
