No need to bend down or squint.It turns on and off automatically, is lightweight but durable, and doesn’t take up much space. It’s clear that this scale is built with quality and user comfort in mind.Overall, it’s a reliable, stylish, and well-designed bathroom scale. If you're looking for accuracy, comfort, and simplicity — this one checks all the boxes. Highly recommended!

This is absolutely the best scale. Glad to throw out the old one haha. You can read it so easily -- large numbers against a lit up pretty blue background. The sleek design, stepping onto smooth glass that shows your tasteful floor is really a pleasure. It can actually make the bathroom, or any room seem larger :) It is wonderful that it comes "ready to use" right out of the box with batteries already inserted. It is very accurate as well. It's much more attractive than the pictures can show. I can tell, too, when it comes to cleaning -- it will be a breeze.

So, I've been on a fitness journey the last few years. Overall, I've lost 76 pounds. But the last year, I've been really stuck. I have a really great private gym, but they don't give much diet advice, so I've been floundering. In February of this year, I reached out to a professional forum, got some good advice about my diet, plugged it into a system that works for me and I love it!My experience has been that I tend to lose a few pounds, but then my body seems to put up a fight because my weights just bounce back and forth back and forth, with no real progress. I finally decided -- also in February -- that I would start tracking my weights every single day, no matter how good or bad it was. Today is August 5th and I've been tracking since February 19th. I'm a data geek, so I've been using Excel to do this, and every day I've made an entry about what I did or ate the day before that might have affected my weight. I KNEW that in order to know whether what I was doing was working and if I was on the right track, I HAD to digilently track.I can definitely see changes in my photos!! But no matter what I was doing, I would never lose on the scale! My body just seemed to be in an endless recomposition phase -- changes in my physique with nothing but bouncing on the scale!!! It was maddening!!It never EVER occurred to me that the problem WAS my scale!A week ago today, I logged . . . "I've got to do something. This is crazy!" I started at 252.1 on 2/19 and as of last week, I was only at 246.8! How can you be in a deficit, your clothes fitting better, and yet the scale seems to NEVER catch up to the changes in your body?? So I looked at scales and decided on this one. I'm going to say, though . . . I knew it was a risk. There was the possibility that this new scale would read higher than my old one. And it did. But if it was going to be consistent and tell me the TRUTH, even if that meant I start from a higher point, I didn't care.So this is what happened e . . .Wednesday AM, 7/28 -- OLD SCALE: 244.8. Scale came in that afternoon.Thursday AM, 7/29 -- OLD SCALE: 246.8 NEW SCALE: 250.8 (Ouch. But keep reading.)Friday AM, 7/30 -- OLD SCALE: 247.1 (0.3 gain) NEW SCALE: 249 (1.8 lb loss)---This is when I knew I had hit on something. The scales may not match with the same number. And they may not show the same RATE of loss or gain. And both of those are okay. But they should BOTH be going in the same DIRECTION!! Either BOTH UP or BOTH DOWN. This is when I chucked my old scale (11 years old).And here are my further weights on my new scale:Saturday, 7/31 -- 247.2 (1.8 loss)Sunday, 8/1 -- 247.2Monday, 8/2 -- 247.2Tuesday, 8/3 -- 247 (0.2 loss)Wednesday, 8/4 -- 246.6 (0.4 loss)Thursday, 8/5 -- 246.6In the last week, I've lost 4.2 lbs! I haven't seen that much loss in a week's time in . . . I don't know how long. And I've weighed myself at other times of the day and still find the scale consistent unless I've just eaten or drank something. My other scale always varied throughout the day. It's a little heartbreaking to realize that some of the discouragement I've felt has been attributed to a faulty scale. I think I really HAVE been making progress, albeit from a higher point than I thought, but it's the scale that's been driving me bananas.And as a caveat to this, a year or so ago, I tried a different scale from Walmart and found it much worse than my own scale in consistency and took it back. I wasn't looking for a scale to make me feel good. I was looking for a scale that I could TRUST, whether that meant telling me I weighed more than I thought or not.I've fought my weight my ENTIRE life, so I know the mind games and the excuses you try to tell yourself about your scale not working. But I have 3 years of various diaries and weight logs to prove how hard I have been working to change my thinking and my life. At a certain point, something JUST didn't make sense.I've learned to feed myself excuses over the years. Part of my practice of conquering this part of my life has been to make myself face, head-on, my actions and not look for other excuses. Therefore, I categorically rejected the idea that the problem might have something to do with my scale -- because, of course, wouldn't everyone LOVE to think the problem with their weight is the scale and not even consider that the problem could possibly be THEM??? But I've learned through this experience to not discount that possibility. I swung so far to the side of not giving myself excuses anymore that I never entertained the thought of any other factors being an issue BUT myself.Now, don't go looking for a new scale if you're not doing the work to warrant looking for results! But the truth is . . . scales CAN be faulty.

I ordered it at like 1 am and got over night shipping and it arrived at around 7 am! It came completely undamaged, already with batteries and ready to go. Feels good quality. I was worried at first because it was telling me I was 99lbs which is FAR from reality and then realized you just can’t use it on carpet lol. After I moved it to hard ground it was super accurate. I’ll update this if it breaks or if I run into any problems.

The scale itself does provide useful information as long as you understand that it's not accurate, it's only an idea of where you're at. If you weigh-in every day and see similar results as you go then it's telling you what you need to know, whether losing or gaining, etc. Don't just go off a week of weigh-ins, give it more time to check your consistency. It's recommended you do it at the same time every day, preferably first thing in the morning before you eat or drink anything so your weigh-ins are consistent, otherwise you will get a variety of readings depending on what you ate or drank or did beforehand. That being said, the app could use a little updating. It appears that when weighing in more than once a day, the dashboard will only show you the last one. I contacted Elekcity and the only way to see the other ones is to select the Data Graphs, then hit the dot for the day until a blue little box appears showing the date and weight, then hit that box and you will see all other weigh-ins for that day. It would be a lot better to have the dashboard allow you to scroll the day rather than have to go through all these steps, but I appreciate that Elekcity got back to me quickly.

Very accurate and practical for my daily routineI bought this scale to keep track of my weight more accurately, and I loved it. It's very easy to use, turns on automatically when you stand on it, and gives the reading in seconds. I find it quite accurate (I compared it to another scale, and it's the same brand). Plus, the design is modern and attractive; it looks great in my bathroom. Ideal if you're taking care of yourself or just want to keep track of your weight at home. Highly recommended!
