Gotta read it fast... But love it!, March 14, 2009
This review is from: Homedics SC-540 LCD 400 lb/180 kg Capacity Bath Scale with Body Composition Scanner (Health and Beauty)
The SC-540 is a very light-weight product, can be easily moved around. Large lettering to see your stats clearly. It shows you what your last reading was when you turn it on. Only complaint: you have to read the stats very quick and know what the numbers mean because it flashes on for 1-2 seconds with 2 sets of 5 indexes on each screen. (whew, all in one breath!). You also have to be barefoot with your feet slightly moist to get your readings, so be ready to stand on some cold stainless steel for about 10 seconds!

Does what it sets out to do, February 3, 2009
This review is from: Homedics SC-540 LCD 400 lb/180 kg Capacity Bath Scale with Body Composition Scanner (Health and Beauty)
Prior to purchasing this scale, I had a cheap 25 dollar one that only checked body fat. Now I know my body fat wasnt 17% because the scale at school said it was around 8%. Since then Ive lost weight but my old scale still said I was around 15% body fat.
I decided to purchase a new scale because the old one eventually broke. This thing works amazingly! It is as accurate as the one at the University as well. Id reccomend this scale to anyone who is trying to work towards their goals of losing weight and dropping body fat.
The extra features are a bonus to an otherwise wonderful piece of equipment.

I think it's a weight issue..., February 2, 2010
This review is from: Homedics SC-540 LCD 400 lb/180 kg Capacity Bath Scale with Body Composition Scanner (Health and Beauty)
I purchased this scale about a week ago. I was very excited that it measures not just weight but fat, water, muscle mass and bone mass. Took it home very eager to see what it had to say, I got my weight (wasn't happy with the number I got, but that's my issue). The scale was accurate. Then I got an Err msg for all the other measurement areas, so I tried everything the booklet said, to no avail. Thinking it was broken, I asked my son to try, and it worked great for him, so I tried again & still got the Err msg. Asked my other son to try, again, it worked great, everything came up. I tried all kinds of things, but it still doesn't work. I think it might be a technical flaw. Both my sons are under 200 lbs and all measurements came up without a problem for them. I, on the other hand am over 200 lbs. and believe that there is an issue with weight vs. other measurements. Homedics should take a look at it because everyone in my household under 200 lbs gets their readings without a problem. I think I will keep the scale for them, also, it gives me incentive to lose so that I too can get all my measurements.
