Why spend money on more expensive scales that may not work February 7, 2010 mom of 2 (usa) I had bought it because a more expensive one that I had bought (with more useless features) did not work well. This scale is great and simple.
Inconsistant after a few months December 20, 2009 Action Jackson (Illinois) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This scale worked great at first, but after about 6 months it varies widely. Lean forward slightly and it is 6 lbs heavier than weight on your heels. Frustrating.
Avoid this scale! November 23, 2009 J. S. Willis (Athens GA USA) I bought this scale in a hurry after our faithful previous one stopped functioning. The purchase was a total loss from the outset. First I accepted Amazon's offer to have it by the next day if I chose one-day shipping. This cost me more than the scale and the item was not even shipped until after it was due to arrive. The scale itself seemed o.k. until we tried testing it for accuracy and reproducibility. It was terrible on both. Serial readouts varied by as much as 6-8 pounds (for a scale reporting in tenths of pounds!!). We tried putting it on the smoothest flatest surface in the house, rezeroing, waiting for various times between trials, etc. Nothing worked. It is now back in its original wrapping waiting for delivery to a local charity, suitable for someone willing to accept weights within 5 lbs of true. I've replaced it with a Health-o-meter from Amazon which at a lower price seems just fine.
piece of crap..avoid like the plaque! November 18, 2009 Erik Klaproth (Canton Ga) 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
Bought one of these two years ago, and although the readings were slightly inconsistent, it was accurate enough to measure body weight (+- 2 lbs). It quit, and after installing a new battery, it was still not working. I wrote the company, who said that , to get service required that i package it, send it back, and hope!
After spending $11.00 to send it back, (on a 19.99 unit), i am a little upset...kinda ruins the idea of a "Lifetime Warranty", doesn't it? After seeing this marked all over the outside of the package, i wonder how many people just give up and DON'T send it back? Another win for Taylor!
Taylor Electronic Scale November 2, 2009 Deputy53 (Western Pennsylvania) Excellent all the way around. Just don't move it after weighing till display goes out, or it will recalibrate every time you use it. (A waste of 30 seconds.)
