A very tiny bit off but overall seems fine
When I weighed a 15 lbs. dumbbell when I first got it, I think it showed 14.9 lbs.  After many, many weeks, using it periodically for myself, I see that same dumbbell now shows 15.2.  So I am not sure why the variation, and the change in over vs. under (maybe since near a radiator since I do not have a better location?)  That said, it seems close enough to accurate, and it allows me to monitor my weight over time, even if it is not 100% accurate.  It seems very close, which is fine considering the great price (also got on sale).<br /><br />And as others have said, I feel more comfortable that the glass is enclosed by metal, as protection against shattering like others shown. To clarify, the metal does wrap around the four sides, so it is not just laying on top. But it does not go all the way down to the bottom of all sides; it covers about 80% of the height. Regardless it seems like the metal does provide extra safety and containment from any glass shatter risk.  Also, the display is large and easy enough to read from above, and the size of the platform is more than large enough for me.<br /><br />After going crazy searching for alternatives, and no good options for analog scales, like others reviewers said, the metal enclosure, price, and reasonable accuracy seem to make it a smart choice.<br /><br />I have yet to see how long the battery lasts, but so far so good.
