Incorrect calculations, had to "trick" scale
I've never reviewed a product on Amazon. This scale worked for a month and then gave out.. Just after the return period. Wonderful. First off, it won't calculate a &#34;low&#34; amount of weights. I tried placing my 5lb dumbbell on there and it flashed to 5.6 or so and then the number disappeared. This happened with anything that weighed just a few pounds. It weighed me and my boyfriend fairly well for the first few days. I had just gotten back from the doctor so I knew how much I weighed give or take.<br /><br />Last week, that's when it got funky. We have both been eating better and working out (cardio and minor lifting) and I could tell the different in my clothes and measurements but it was stuck on the same number.. Even down to the decimal! For instance, if I got on, for days it would stay at 125.4. So anything around 125.4 it would give me that number. If he got on. It would stay at whatever he weighed.. 205.2 and keep flashing at that. But if I got on, then he got on, then I did again, it would change! So say, I got on and it was 125.4 then his was 205.2 then I got on, it would be 123. It's like you had to trick it with a very different weight to get an accurate weight!<br /><br />I even tried to stand on it with one leg up. It dropped a few pounds and the next 5 times I got in it (2 feet firmly planted on the base) it would give me the number that I had when I was testing it with 1 foot up. This was super strange. I was excited to get a digital scale but it doesn't seem to work right.<br /><br />Other than that, it looks really nice and has a slim, sleek design. Affordable too! Wish it worked past the return period but that seems to be his lots of products work.
