Does the scale have reproducible weight measurements when shifting body position while stepping on it? My present scale shows different results when I shift my weight forward or to the rear i.e. I am leaning forward or to the rear while weighing myself.

As long as you stand long enough for the scale to stabilize it should give you the same weight each time. What I mean by stabilize is once you've been on it a few seconds it will blink and then the number stays even when you step off so you can read it easier. I weighed myself, then do it again while leaning forward, then again leaning backwards, and then I stood on it with only one foot. I got the same exact reading each time.

Hi Julie I think if when you weigh yourself it doesn't look right. I would return the scale. Which is what I did I have a scale called thinner which I bought 10 years ago from Bed Bath Beyond. It gives accurate weight as well as fat content

Mine is always 4 pounds off and I don't know how to fix it. It zeros itself each time I use it , but then is 4 pounds off one way or the other. I think it is just a bad scale. I am going to get a different scale from a different company. Sorry I couldn't help.

Seems to be consistent. As far as accuracy goes I can't say. Certain scales weigh me heavier, others lighter.

It's accurate to a tenth of a pound. It does weigh consistantly, so if you step off and weigh yourself again there isn't a difference, unlike cheaper scales.

Hi Susan!We returned the scale b/c it did not weigh in accurately when compared to other scales we used.Good luck with it!

I did not know for sure myself, so I contacted the manufacturer. They got back to me within a day by the way, very fast. I was told that these particular scales have no need to be recalibrated. They were very concerned why I was asking and asked if I was having problems with it. I told them no just wanted to know how to recalibrate it. If I was having problems with it they were quickly going to replace it. I was impressed, seem to be a good company that is wanting to make sure their customers are happy.

The scale is usually consistent if you keep the scale in the same spot and weigh yourself each day at the same time. Unfortunately, after a few weeks of use the scale was off by about 7 pounds. Even after putting it to zero, it was still saying I was 7 pounds less than I was. My doctor's digital scale agreed with my other digital scale. Not a good thing .

This scale does need you to be still for a moment, but it responds quickly. If you are moving, you do shift the weight that is shown on the display. It can give you a couple of different weights if you move too much.

Is your scale on a level, hard surface? If you do, you may have a defective scale. I first step on the scale and quickly step off. I wait until the scale turns off, then step on again to see my current weight.

To be honest with you I don't recall.. I can't imagine that it does not, but I was not satisfied w/the results in pounds (when compared to other scales I had) so I returned it for lack of accuracy. The lack of accuracy would have reflected both in pounds and kilograms so the issue was moot to me. I highly recommend that you read all reviews before deciding to buy this product!

If the 10lb weight you're using to test the scale is a typical fitness weight (either olympic or standard, doesn't matter), it's highly unlikely to weigh exactly 10lbs. Typcally, the cheaper the weight, the more inaccurate it will be.

It does not, the scale will give you the wrong weight, it has to be on hard floors. Awesome scale, always gives me the right weight.

You just step right on. Then you have to center yourself and stay still until the scale blinks 3 times, indicating it has registered the weight. Then it saves it to compare to the the next time you weigh in. Love this thing!

I think your scale is broken. When I step on mine the zeros pop up then it goes to my weight.

yes but to set the scale. you have to do it 3 times in a row. step on the scale wait until it stops flashing and do it 2 more times, the same weight should come up 3 times.but every time you move the scale you have to reset it this way

From my experience, it doesn't matter how many times you move the scale. You will always get the same result. It's been an excellent scale!
