TANITA BC-601FS FitScan Segmental Body Composition Monitor with SD Card

I tried the Omron hand-held and discovered their algorithm was just made up based on weight, not electrical impedence, so it gave wrong numbers. I tried the Garmin Smart Index Scale and for some reason the percent of body fat determined is always 2x what it really is. I can tell this one actually works.

Pretty consistent. Usually only varies 1% on any given day but that is attributed to my hydration level. All variables held equal and it is almost spot on with the $10,000 one at Lifetime Fitness.

Soy nutricionista y cuando iba empezando mis consultas esta herramienta fue de mucha ayuda. Los datos son bastantes precisos en especial si estás en el continente Americano.

Great for tracking weight and so much more! My husband is an athlete (IRONMAN) and checks his fluids and other health attributes using this scale.

-1 star: Originally tried it on carpet, gave wildly inaccurate weights. But it works fine on hardwood/tiled floors.-1 star: Besides weight, the other measurements can vary a lot. E.g. today, I measured myself three times. The weight values were within 0.2 lbs of each (excellent), but the body fat percentage ranged from 17-19 percent (not very good). I'm not sure if it's the way I'm grabbing the handle but I recommend measuring yourself multiple times to get a more accurate picture. If it gives back the same numbers each time then that's probably accurate (or at least the precision is good).

Gives precise and accurate readings, I’d buy it again.

It was never accurate on even the weight. I sent it in to get fixed. They said there was nothing wrong with it and sent it back. It still did not work accurately. They would not fix it again or replace it.

I like the data. I just wish the data didn't have to be transcribed, then input into an Excel spreadsheet. I have a Windows based operating system. I have ask the company for help. They have not been forthcoming with how to have the data which is in a comma delimited format to come across in a usable form... It is utter gibberish. If they could give me the formulas to translate the data or format the data this way this would be extremely helpful. I have requested information several times and when I do get a response Nick doesn't answer the question. I will just say Buyer beware. I have heard it does work with Apple systems.
