Nice that it links to fitbit, but there may be more accurate options out there
So, I want to start off by saying that while I really like this scale, it's not always very accurate. The weight reading is OK, but the body fat reading jumps around a bit. I can sometimes get two different readings just by stepping off and then back on the scale.I pretty much assume that since there are a million different factors that can affect a body fat % reading, that I'll probably never get a truly accurate reading on any scale. I'm mostly using this to see if, on average, my body fat % is dropping as I get in better shape, so I'm not too concerned if it's not super accurate.<br /><br />Overall, the scale does a pretty good identifying who is on the scale, but it does have some problems when guests use it. My boyfriend and sister weigh about the same, but their body fat % is way different (male vs. female, so it's a pretty big gap). When my sister was visiting me and used my scale, it automatically assigned her stats to my boyfriend's account. It would be better if the scale could look at the body fat as well as the weight to determine who the person is. The nice thing about the fitbit app, though, is that it's easy to reassign the data if it was assigned to the wrong person.<br /><br />A feature that I really like is the ability to sync the fitbit data over to myfitnesspal (this is more of an app feature than scale, but whatever). I have my account set up so that when I weigh myself, the data gets pushed from fitbit to myfitnesspal. This makes it easy for me to log my weight changes with my exercise and food intake.<br /><br />Setting up the scale wasn't too big of a deal. It did take 3 or 4 tries before it worked, but that still only amounted to about 10 minutes total. It was a little bit annoying, but not something that would impact my decision to buy it.<br /><br />Overall, I am pretty happy with this purchase, though this scale could use some improvements. I would probably buy this again due to the ease of syncing data across different apps. This scale has made me a lot more accountable for logging my weight, since it does it for me every time I step on it. I am giving it 4 stars due to the body fat inaccuracies and high cost.
