High-priced Gadgetry that Syncs with Fitbit App
The scale is not cheap.  But it serves its purpose.  If you're just looking to measure your weight, any $20 scale will do.  Make it $35 if you want to measure body fat too.  Then make it $130 if you want it to have WiFi and work with your Fitbit.  But if you are already in the Fitbit ecosystem (I, personally, own a Flex and love it), and you have the extra money to spend, this scale is a good choice because it syncs flawlessly with the app on your phone, graphing your weight over time (surprisingly boring graph for people who are not trying to cut or gain weight), and your lean vs fat over time.  And you can see it at a glance next to your steps, calories burned, active minutes, etc.<br /><br />Setup was a breeze.  The design of the white scale also fits in well with most bathrooms.  (Highly suggest the white scale over the black scale for most people.)  And the screen is backlit so it works well in the early morning and at night when you may be too lazy to turn on the lights.<br /><br />It does work with multiple family members, and works best if your family members have weights spread at least 10 pounds apart because the scale distinguishes individuals by weight and body fat percentage (as opposed to being fully sentient).  New users will be registered as guests on their first weigh-in.  Then, just program each person into the scale via the Fitbit.com site, and the scale will automatically recognize them in the future.  If two users have similar weights, they'll need to manually tap the scale with their foot after each weighing to cycle through the initials of who the scale thinks might have just weighed themselves.<br /><br />My biggest gripes are (1) the price, and (2) that the scale's body fat measurement may not be the most accurate.  Of course, no body fat scale on the market today works particularly well.  But when your body fat typically only moves by 1-2%, and the scale might have an error range of 1-2%, the feature obviously will not be particularly helpful.  But again, while its expensive, I paid the money for one, and don't regret it.
