Great so far...
I was considering getting a Bluetooth scale for a while but the reviews for the other two popular scales weren't that great so I didn't want to spend $100 or more on one if I didn't like it. After looking around and sorting by customer reviews, I found this one. The price was good and all the reviews were pretty positive.
When I received the scale, the setup was easy and fast and all I had to do from there was insert the batteries and weigh myself. I had also purchased a highly rated non-digital fat caliper from Amazon as well and comparatively the scale was within 1% of what the manual caliper said. Compared to the commercial gym scale I usually use (at the gym & at my work gym) the measurements were within 1 lb or less of that as well.
The app is pretty straight forward & easy to use and calculates your BMR, BMI, protein %, fat %, bone % visceral fat ranking, fitness age and metabolic rate. It also gives you the delta measurements from your last weigh in to current.
As for appearance, the scale is pretty slick looking and seems to be usable even without the app on or present, some other similar higher priced scales required the app at all times. The display is bright and easy to read so no complaints there.
The only annoying factor would be the statement listed after setting up your goal weight, something like "You are X lbs away from your goal weight, you should try really hard to lose X lbs"... but comes with a year warranty and 90 day return policy so overall, worth it.
