This item is attractive looking but the one I received didn't work. It quickly weighed 4 pints of water as 4.6 pounds. Not accurate, but close enough for checking on gain/loss which is what we are concerned about. But the baby was another matter. The scale took much more time to reach "hold" and give a weight. It gave wildly different weights as we tested it over two days. The last weight we got at the medical office was 11 pounds 8 ounces. The sale gave the following weights: 11.4, 9.6, 10.38, 11.2. This is obviously of no help. Of course, the baby moved his arms and legs, but did not squirm and was not in distress. And babies do move a bit.

I purchased this scale to weigh my baby. I found it to be inaccurate- 4-6 oz variations from the scale at the doctor' office. It also gives a wide range of readings with repeat weighs. The variations of repeat weighs are from 1 oz to 8 oz depending on how the baby is positioned or if the baby is moving. It also takes too long to tare/zero. Overall, not the best pick for a baby scale. I completly agree with the last review.

I purchased this baby scale to weigh my cats as I have several who have health issues. This scale is exactly as advertised and very accurate. It is easy to use and cleaning the surface is easy. It gets 5 stars and I would recommend this scale, even for weighing babies!

I just returned this scale to Target. Unfortunately the Target website didn't list a photo or brand name for the item at the time I ordered it. If it helps, the one I received was the BebeSounds Digital Baby Scale model BR149.

There were a couple things I liked about this Bebesounds scale. Mostly that it's relatively small and flat. However there were several things I didn't like. For starters, I took 3 weights in a row, and they were all different, not by a lot - but I wasn't impressed. In addition, in order to repeat (or 'double check) a weight I had to completely start over from the beginning (i.e. take off scale, turn off, turn back on, put back on scale, and reweigh). Plus, it seemed like it took FOREVER to "lock in" a weight. I initially purchased this to weigh my cat (who's ill) so she got very impatient waiting each time. In addition, it would be easier to not have to lift her on and off the scale multiple times to recheck a weight.

If interested, after returning this scale I purchased a second scale from Amazon. The next scale I purchased was the Ultrascale MBSC-55 by My Weigh. I just received it today. I took 3 weights in a row, two were exactly the same and the third was only different by 0.01 lbs. Much better! In addition I was able to take all 3 weights without having to lift my cat off the scale in between each weight (much easier for both of us!). For $30-40 bucks more, I'd recommend this one over the BebeSounds version.

I hope this helps!

My use of the scale was for my otterhound puppies - it worked well but I think we were challenging it as we had some very tiny puppies at the begining - it is working better now.

My only complaint is that the slightest movement of a puppy seems to make it start all over again with the weight measurement. I tend to weigh 3 times and take the average.

This baby scale works very good for puppies. This digital scale is more accurate enabling a true weight for the puppies.

This scale is light, easy to store, and simple to use. The shape of it makes it good for infants who lie down as well as older ones who can sit. Gives quite variable weights even if used for the same weight three times in a row. If you are really concerned about your child;s weight gain would recommend buying a more expensive professional medical scale. If you are simply keeping a rough tally of weight gain then quite okay.

this product is an absolute rip off. it gives completely different readings even for a stationary object, much less a wiggling baby! we bought this to keep up with our baby's growth and compare her weight to the pediatricians recommendations. Needless to say, the scale was of no help, and only made us overly worried about the wildly varying readings.. we would never recommend this product to any of our friends or family. i hope this product is discontinued, as it is only a wasteful addition of plastic to the environment.

The scale arrived faster than I thought. It works perfectly (especially after I read the instructions.

I use it to weigh 7 beautiful bernese mnt. dog puppies. The large size of the scale makes it easy to weigh them.

Very easy to tare before weighing your pet. It is low in height so it does not take a lot of space. The numbers are easy to read and you can switch from metric to pounds.
