Good ProductFeb 21, 2010 I am very pleased with these scales. I would weigh myself before i would go to my weight watcher meetings and then weigh when I got back home and they were consistent. So yes I would recommend them to friends.
Unsattisfactory ScaleJan 31, 2010 The scale is inaccurate and hard to initiate. I sometimes have to try a dozen times before it will give me a weight reading. I would not recommend this scale!
This scale is inaccurate by several poundsJan 04, 2010
I am sorry I ever bought this scale. It is inaccurate by up to 6 pounds! I cannot understand how this can be endorsed by Weight Watchers!
I would like to warn everyone never to buy this item.
OK, But Accuracy In Question....Jan 03, 2010 This is an attractive scale with a large LED readout, a level and easy to start with slight pressure of your foot. However, compared to my 10 year old similar circular Thinner MS-9930 scale, it reads about one pound higher and varies by at least a half pound depending on what solid surface it rests upon such as marble, tile or wood. I dont think Conair makes them like they used to.

Scale becomes inaccurate after 3 months usageNov 12, 2009 I bought this scale in hopes of just having an accurate, reliable scale to weigh myself as I started my exercise regime. Initially the scale was fine as I checked my weight at the gym locker room (using an old fashioned sliding scale) and my electronic Weight Watchers Scale. Everything was fine and I continued to use my Weight Watchers scale explicitly for my weight readings. At the 1 month mark, I had not lost any weight according to my Weight Watchers scale but at the gym locker room, I weighed 5 pounds lighter than normal. Knowing that weight can fluctuate +/- 4 pounds a day, I assumed it was no big deal. After continual usage of my scale, I started to gain weight while maintaining my exercise program. I soon found out that my scale was indeed adding weight as I had lost nearly 9 pounds according to the sliding scale at the gym.
After this I tried two things, I tried to recalibrate the scale and I tried to change out the batteries. Unfortunately, there is no way of calibrating this thing except by taking out the batteries and hoping for a miraculous reset. This did not happen in my case. I replaced the batteries with 2 sets of fresh batteries, neither resulting in a steady or accurate weight. I do not recommend this product for extended and consistent use.
Since then I have bought a Omron Body Fat Monitor and Scale for $40, and I couldn't be happier. I have been using it for around 90 days and using the guide in the instruction manual to produce the most consistent and stable results, my weight has been VERY accurate. I also have the 1/7/30/90 day tracker to see my weight, BMI body fat %, visceral fat %, muscle %, and supposed body age. I am very happy keeping track of my progress as I strive to lose weight. The only complaint is that my body age started 30 years above my age but now has slowly gone down to 20 years above. I feel more healthy and fit but the machine tells me I'm still an old man (which I am not). All in all, I'd say if you're going to spend $40 on a scale, get a scale that doesn't have a significant and repeatable ratings of 1 star, it's just not worth the hassle and return.
Best of luck and happy exercising.
