I am a big guy (currently 403lbs) was 421 a few months ago and have been slowly going down each week, this scale is SO accurate, if I get on and off 4-5 times in a row down to the .2 its still solid, then when I go to the healthclub and use their $2000 professional scale it reads the same numbers as the home scale.
Again I am closer to the top limits of this scale (440 top weight) yet it feels solid and doesn't flex or feel "cheap" or like it is going to break or anything.
5 different user buttons along with each of those 5 inputs having the last weight viewable for reference and a large readout and stepon plate (I wear a 14 EEEEE shoe and have no problems) make this scale worth buying at any cost.

The scale has five buttons along the edge. You tap a button with your toe and the button number comes on the screen for a couple seconds. Then the screen goes to 0.0 on the large numbers and your previous weight on the smaller numbers below that. You step on the scale and it shows your current weight. The next time you use it, that number will show as your previous weight. It takes a couple seconds for the screen to clear and be ready for the next weighing. You can use the five buttons for five different people. Or if you want, you can use more than one button for yourself. Say, one for "morning weight" and one for "evening weight."
The scale has a large surface to stand on. More than a foot square. But it's also very thin, so cabinet doors will open over it, etc. It's very accurate. I put a 20 lb. dumbell on it and it said 20.0. Then I weighed myself while holding two 20 lb. dumbells. I weighed exactly 40.0 lbs more than when I wasn't holding the dumbells. Good enough.
This is just what I was looking for... a no nonsense, accurate scale that remembers my previous weight. I like it.

This scale is very accurate (it gives the same weight as my doctor's scale...unfortunately, lol)
Because of the low profile it is easier to get onto the scale with my bad knees and the larger size (13 1/2" wide and 15" long) means that I don't have to do a balancing act while trying to weigh myself. And, unlike other scales I've owned, I don't have to stand in exactly the same place everytime to get the correct reading.
Buy this scale, you won't be sorry.

I am a big guy and needed a scale as I am going on a diet. I was concerned this one wouldn't hold up but unless I wanted to shell out 500 dollars this was my only option. I have had the scale for two weeks and it has been great. Its accurate, digital, and it stores my weights. If you are looking for a scale but don't want to shell out a lot of money this is definitely the one I would go with.

For people who are 300+ pounds it is very very difficult to find a scale to weigh you. Most scales off the shelf simply cannot do the job.
That's what lead me to this scale and I am amazed at the quality of it, compared to the price.
The first thing you'll notice is its craftmanship. It really is an amazing peice of hardware, made for very heavy people to use.
The second thing you'll notice is its accuracy. Even at 400+ pounds, you'll see that it is terribly terrible accurate. Even my doctors scales can shimmy up and down a bit when i stand on them at this size and this scale does not.
overall, very satisfied with this product. I expect to be using it for quite some time to come.

I spent several days researching this online before choosing this maker & model last November, and found this unit to have a great price, great accuracy, great ease of use (no finickiness about foot placement or floor placement), and to be very economical where batteries are concerned. We've had ours for daily weigh-ins for two people for a couple of months and haven't needed new batteries yet.
What I learned about scales which try to do a BMI reading through your feet is, they are NOT accurate and they tear through batteries as often as weekly! Get this scale instead, and use the money you've saved to get a handheld BMI reader, like the Omron sold by Amazon. Yes, it's two pieces of gear instead of one -- but would you rather have two *accurate* devices which both have very good battery life, or one grossly inaccurate device which eats batteries like candy?
Also, most high-weight home scales top out at 300, 330, or 360 pounds. This Tanita model goes far beyond that, to 440 -- and still offers better accuracy, better price, and more family convenience (five users can compare current weight to last weight) than the models with the lower weight limitations. It's a steal. And no, I don't work for Tanita! :)
UPDATE: I reviewed this January, 2007. In January, 2009, the scale is still going strong on the original set of batteries.

Be wary of Tanita and their warranty claims. The product itself was decent, and fairly accurate, however Tanita is not a company that prides itself in customer service and product support. I used my scale in a normal bathroom environment, and after just 3 months you could see evaporation underneath the screen. I don't know if a gasket had a crack in it, or what the issue might have been, but the unit couldn't withstand the normal humidity of a bathroom. In fact, the unit was a good 20 feet from any active water, like a shower and tub.
I shipped the unit in, and without even so much as a courtesy call, the "customer service manager" returned my unit with a note that my warranty claim was refused, even though I had spoken to someone before about the issue, and said it would be replaced no problem. The customer service manager was nice enough, but said that even though it was well within the boundaries of his discretion, he was going to refuse the claim, because they refuse all like claims regarding evaporation. He even admitted that it happens fairly often.
Stay away.
His recommendation? Buy another Tanita, and not place it in the bathroom. Right.
