Editorial Review:

Product Description:
The simple white-on-white design of this digital platform scale from Health-o-meter makes it a fresh, clean note in any bathroom décor. Constructed from durable steel, the 300-pound capacity scale features a smart foot mat with horizontal ribs that wipe off easily and keep you from slipping. Conveniently sized, the LED display provides a large, easy-to-read digital weight measurement and alerts you when the 9-volt battery's low. With raised bumpers to protect your floor, the unit stands just 2-1/2 inches off the floor, for a nonbulky profile. Though it measures a compact 10-1/4 by 10 inches, the scale's efficient display design still leaves ample room for standing. Health-o-meter backs it up with a five-year limited warranty.

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Hooray I weigh 125 ...Oops...195...Oops ...155...Oops...
If you want a nice accurate scale keep looking. This model is lousy at telling you what you weigh. Nothing disappoints more than hopping on and discovering YAY you weigh a certain weight..then trying again a few minutes later and discover NO you actually weigh 5 pounds more!
I called the company and they told me you had to wait a few seconds between weighing in for the scale to recalibrate. So I did that, but it didnt make any difference. My weight has varied as much as 10 pounds on this scale. ... Read More



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Don't buy this scale
This is the worst scale I have ever used. Just like what most of the other reviewers have mentioned, the weight fluctuates even when you measure the weight successively within a minute. The fluctuation on my scale is within 4 lbs. It is very frustrating to use such an inaccurate scale, because it is as good as not using one. I will never trust the Healthometer brand ever.

And for the reviewer who thinks that other reviewers couldn't "follow instructions" and stand still while they weigh ... Read More



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Terrible scale
I bought this to try and track my weight, but the displayed weight on this scale will vary up to 10 lbs. within a few minutes. Generally I found the further back on the scale I stood the lighter I got. Also, it was very finicky about standing absolutely still.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Horrible scale
give me a 10 lb range inside of 5 min...
you can step on it 6 times in a row and get 6 different weights with a 10lb weight range.. not worth it get something else!



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Living in a Digital World.
This is a great all around digital scale... as long as you read the instructions. You need to stand still while it weighs you. Large digital display is easy to read. The slim design is easy to hide in the bathroom and the price was great. I went to the doctor's two days ago and this scale weighed me in at the same as their calibrated office scale.
Bottom Line: works just fine even though I don't always like the answer.
