Customer Reviews

The Omron HBF-306 is very simple to use. Because it uses electrical resitance and calculated "wing span" to measure BF%, it's possible (due to differences in arm length) that your reading may not be 100% accurate compared to a clinical "immersion" test. However, it is definitely consistent! I also have caliper type pinchers and found them too inconsistent (unless you can pinch the same exact spot each time).
With the Omron HBF-306, you can easily track changes in your body fat % as you progress through your fitness training. You'll be able to easily tell if your losing fat and/or gaining muscle by monitoring your BF% along with your weight. Check your weight and body fat % first thing in the morning for the most consistent readings. I highly recommend it.

My instructor at the gym uses the pinch type calipers and my doctor used this one. Both were consistent and within 0.2% of each other. The Omron HPF 306 Body Fat Tracker is a lot easier and you don't have to strip down and be poked and prodded. I love it!
Now I only go to my doctor to chart my progress...
