bathroom scale recommendation
« on: March 30, 2022, 02:20:31 PM »
I need a basic bathroom scale, just for weight, nothing else.  Would like digital readout as it's easier to see.

Any suggestions?

Thanks.

I guess the forum is ready for another weighty discussion.

My bride purchased this one from Bed bath and beyond:

I HAD been using this one from walmart, but she claimed it was not accurate:

https://www.walmart.com/ip/Health-o-meter-Digital-Bathroom-Scale-350-lbs-Capacity/10264542?athbdg=L1200


So YOU decide... I am not really sure that it matters much if the scale is spot on accurate with the value, but that the changes are more important! 

(My bride seems to be very excited to report "I lost 2 pounds!"..... However she should no longer exist!    I now suspect that she isnt reporting the bad news ("I gained 2 pounds").  OR perhaps she has some sort of boomerang fat issue!  (it keeps coming back!)

But her decision was that she prefers the BBB one over the Walmart one.

I've been happy with the one I ordered from Amazon two years ago, but it seems to have been discontinued. It's very similar to this.
