Taylor Body Fat Scale Review

Taylor Body Fat Scale
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Ugh, this scale is total crap. It claims to read weight, body fat, and water %.
I have no idea it's accuracy on water and I don't care, because I highly doubt buyers are purchasing the scale out of an intense desire to calculate their water saturation levels. Am I thirsty? No? Great, that's good enough for me.
What I do know is that it sucks at accurate weight calculations and it really sucks at body fat %. I'm pretty active and have been actively watching what I eat for the last few months gearing up for bikini season here in SoCal (which, I'm pretty sure is one of Dante's levels of Hell. One where you're constantly asked by anorexic girls if they look fat and Katy Perry's "California Gurls" is blasted 24/7). Despite my dedication to fitness (and coffee, air, water, and salad) this stupid scale has weighed me the EXACT same weight for 3 months. Give or take a few oz's. My pants fall off, but still this scale insists I haven't lost a pound. I read a tip about putting something on it to recalibrate it and then see if you get a more accurate reading. I tried that. Here's a list of things in my house that weigh the exact same as me: my purse, a bottle of mouthwash, and one of those tree branch jewelry holders from Urban Outfitters. Also it's BFP reading is schizophrenic. One day it told me 21.5, the next day (I'm not even kidding) it told me 33%! You don't go from athletic to morbidly obese in one day. And if you could just suddenly be morbidly obese then I've been wasting serious time at the gym for naught. I finally discovered my gym has one of those legit Dr scales. I've lost 11 pounds. Taylor Body Fat Scale, I hatechu. You're as useless as my boyfriend in the womens section of H&M.

This scale is only a month old and, like the other reviewers have said, it's readings are all over the place.I have gained/lost 3-5 lbs in 10 minutes according to this thing.I even tested it by getting on with a 5 lb dumbell after weighing myself regularly, expecting to see a 5 lb increase, as the dumbell should register.No!!I no longer have my box, but I really want a refund on this product!!

Taylor 5599 440 Pound Tempered Glass Body Fat-Body Water Scale Review

Taylor 5599 440 Pound Tempered Glass Body Fat-Body Water Scale
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
There may only be seven reviews for this scale, but there's a reason that all seven of us have rated this product with 5 stars; it is a marvelous machine.You get 5 numbers: weight, body fat, muscle mass, water percentage and bone mineral mass.There is an athletic setting and a regular setting.When I checked body fat (the most examined number) in both athletic and regular mode, the range of fat seemed consistent with a range for my height, weight and build.Obviously, each user will choose the setting that seems most accurate to them (athletic or normal).

The only issue that I have with the scale is in the length of time that information is displayed.Weight is flashed three times and then is solid for about 5 seconds before the scale turns itself off.As well, the body percentages cycle three times before they turn off.I would prefer for the numbers to show as long as you are on the scale.I think that the manufacturers designed it that way to preserve battery life.

Nevertheless, if you do repeated tests within the same time span, you get consistent results (no variations).So, the consistency alone is the main reason for getting this scale.I highly recommend this product. Even if you just use it for the scale it's worth it.
