This electronic scale will weigh up to 330 pounds (150 kilograms), plus measures body fat via bio-impedance technology. In other words, when the user stands barefoot on the two transmitters, a safe, low-level electrical current is sent through the body. The current flows through muscle and fat at different speeds. The total speed is calculated along with the user's age, height, and gender to produce a percentage of body fat. Up to ten different users can program in their personal data on this scale. With single load cell technology and precision strain gauges, the scale accurately weighs in 0.2-pound (0.1-kilogram) increments. Very lightweight and slim in profile, the scale is constructed of sturdy, impact-resistant plastic, and measures 12-1/2 by 12 by 1-3/4 inches. A lifetime 3-volt lithium battery is included. Conair covers the scale with a ten-year warranty. --Ann BieriPrice: $49.99
Modern lifestyle calls for modern technology and attractive design. The exceptional stainless steel and glass design of the seca 807 conceals a highly efficient technology with 4 load cells to ensure precise results.
Though it looks airy and sleek, this Weight Watchers scale is plenty sturdy as well as incredibly accurate. Designed to start weighing as soon as you step on, the scale displays its readings on a 1.2-by-3-inch LCD monitor. Using a four load cell system for precision, measurements are accurate to .1 pounds and zero out as soon as you step off the platform. The platform is made from high-strength, impact-resistant glass, while the durable plastic frame is finished with a gleaming chrome exterior. The scale is easy to pick up and comfortable to stand on, as well as an easy match for most contemporary bathrooms. A simple switch on the underside lets you change from pound readings to kilograms, and the lifetime lithium batteries are easy to access (though you should never need to replace them). Measuring 12-1/4 by 13-3/8 inches, the scale is sized to accommodate larger feet and holds up to 380 pounds (175 kilograms). Conair includes a 10-year warranty. --Emily Bedard
