False accuracy - it has a memory
This scale appears to be accurate, but has one 'feature' that I hate. If you weigh yourself and you are approximately two pounds or less within your last weight, the scale will not register the difference. I don't see why this is a benefit. I find it aggravating. I suppose it's made for those people who would freak out over the normal variation of a couple of pounds but frankly I don't need or want this 'feature'. I have to weigh just my foot or something to get a vastly different reading, then I can weigh myself and get a REAL reading. When I see the same exact reading day after day it makes me think the scale is broken and when I started losing weight I could not figure out why I wasn't losing anything for a week or two and then suddenly my weight dropped by 2 to 3 pounds. It only added to my frustration. I know someone who has a different Weight Watchers scale that does the same thing. This is probably okay for maintenance, but not for losing weight - when you want to see accurate results.
