Good idea but ineffective
I already had a smart scale prior to this one, one that was much cheaper even. The first thing I noticed when stepping on the Aria was that my weight was up by 2 pounds (128 vs 126). It also calculated my body fat at 28%. I definitely, under no circumstances, am 28% body fat. I've had that tested with old-fashioned calipers by a doctor and my other scale seems to correctly figure out that I'm at about 20.2%--huge margin of error. This doesn't seem to be a matter of retaining water--the Aria consistently reports these high numbers.<br /><br />It is cool that it auto-reports these numbers to FitBit but the integration also seems kind of clunky, buggy, and awkward. It's not clear in the UX on the app how to access the scale (it's through a settings tab). And also, it's not particularly useful if the data is not accurate since it uses that data to establish your basal metabolic rate to determine how many calories you need to eat/burn that day.<br /><br />If you're thinking about buying this, I'd suggest waiting for the next version of it when they've hopefully refined it some.
