1 out of 5 stars Poor quality and not even close to accurate...   August 20, 2008
I purchased the product and am quite disappointed.

As noted- it is very flimsy plastic and feels like it is bending in half when used.

It is impossible to get accurate readings from the scale- there is often a *5 POUND* variance between consecutive weigh-ins. You have to weigh yourself multiple times and average the results to even get a clue which number is accurate.

I have even tested it with known quantity cast iron weights and found it to be off.

I purchased it becasue of the Salter name brand. I will not make that mistake again. I have since replaced this unit with another brand of scale.



2 out of 5 stars Nice, but not for us!   August 4, 2008
This is a nice scale. The thing I like about it most is how it looks. I don't however, recommend this scale for persons over 300lbs (despite the 400lb capacity). I weigh under 300lbs, and it worked okay for me. However, when used by someone over 300, it creaked and cracked when stepped on, and did not give an accurate weight.


1 out of 5 stars defective?   June 29, 2008
The digital number at the far right is already partially disappearing in less than one month of home use. I tried to contact the company via their web site and it says their website is temporarily unavailable due to essential updates. I was initially impressed with the product but I am wondering how long the other numbers will show up. The instruction manual says that the scale has a lithium battery installed to provide extra long energy life for the scale and that under heavy usage such as a health club that the batteries may eventually need to be replaced. I gave this as a gift to my father on 6/7/08 and it already is showing a problem. (6/28/08)


4 out of 5 stars Pretty good scale   June 28, 2008
I needed a scale with 400 pound weight capacity for a family member in kidney dialysis. This fits the bill, but it is extremely thin and light weight. I was worried that the housing would not stand up, and yet it has with no problems. I can't get it to jive with a doctor'ds scale, but it falls within 2-7 pounds difference (depends on which doctor's scale). All in all, for the money it's worth it.


4 out of 5 stars I love it   August 6, 2007

This scale works great for myself and husband. He admitted it seemed "flimsy" but he's 150 more pounds than I am. I feel it's quite accurate and is on course for me. We are both overweight and it helped open our eyes as to how fat we are. oops. Thanks!
