The width does make a difference
I have another digital scale that measures body fat and all kinds of other things besides your weight. It started weighting very erratically. Unfortunately on the low end of the scale!!! So I decided to try a single lens focus (photographers will know what I meen). Namely that maybe a scale that just weights pounds would be a better choice. Also I live in a typical NYC apartment--wnich means the floors are sort of level. I found this scale and it is perfect. The width makes the difference. It's sturdy and it weights (unfortunately) consistently. A choice I'm glad I made.
