Does the job
My old dial scale was not very easy to read, so I was looking for one that I thought would be better.  I thought this one looked like it might be a little easier to read.  It is a little better, but it is still hard to tell exactly which line it is on when fully standing and looking down.  Size wise it is a small scale and while that is good because it fits where I need it to, it does make it a little hard to read.  If you have big feet, this may not be the scale for you.<br /><br />It seems accurate with my old scale.  It does sometimes give a little different reading if you step on, off, and on again.  However, I don't need it to be perfect, just confirm that I am loosing.  I solved this problem by taking the advice of another reviewer.  I get on and off three times.  If I get the same reading twice, I take that one.  If I get three different ones, I take the middle one.  They are never more than 1 to 2 lbs different.<br /><br />You do have to reset to zero most of the time, but from what I have learned about dial scales, that is actually considered a good thing.  And really, how difficult is that to do?  It takes 1 second.<br /><br />All in all, I am pleased with this scale.  If it had been expensive, I might expect more, but for no more than it cost, I think it is fine and does the job that I need it to do.
