4.0 out of 5 stars Great scale, but less effective for body fat measurement, May 11, 2004
This review is from: Tanita 2001W-B Ultimate Body Fat Bathroom Scale, White (Health and Beauty)
If you are looking for a digital scale, this is an excellent and inexpensive option. It is very easy to use: simply tap the button on the side of the scale with your foot to turn it on, then step on the scale. I believe that the measurements are quite accurate, and I particularly like that the weight is given in half-pound increments.

As a body fat monitor, however, this scale is less useful. As other reviewers have mentioned, it has no memory function, and it is rather cumbersome to have to input gender and height information every time you want to take a measurement. I also agree that the values seem off; I exercise regularly and have a fair amount of muscle, and I don't think the monitor is able to take this into account.

This scale has worked well for me, as I use it mainly for weight measurement only; if you are looking for a good body fat monitor, you may want to look elsewhere.

2.0 out of 5 stars Inputting data every time is a pain, April 23, 2004
This review is from: Tanita 2001W-B Ultimate Body Fat Bathroom Scale, White (Health and Beauty)
I wanted a low end scale and went with this one. I was disappointed to find that you have to input the height every time to get fat calculations.

Body fat calculations are off because it only measures how the electricity runs through one leg to the other, so if you carry your weight more in your legs and hips, it will be higher than it really is, if you carry your weight in your torso but not in your legs it will be lower. This is true of any of the home body fat scales however.

3.0 out of 5 stars Ok for Weighing. No good for Body Fat, October 21, 2004
By 
J. A Carty "Jessie Carty" (Charlotte, NC United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Tanita 2001W-B Ultimate Body Fat Bathroom Scale, White (Health and Beauty)
I like that you can save information for two people on this scale and that it does weigh fairly accurately but the body fat analysis is way off. I had mine professionally checked and this scaled was off (heavy) by at least 5% body fat.

It isn't consistent and as the scale ages I have noticed that the weight measurement is also not that consistent.

For the price it is still good for having the digital option.
