4.0 out of 5 stars Gotta read it fast... But love it!, March 14, 2009

By	David Summa "I shop for a living!" (Houston, TX USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

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!

5.0 out of 5 stars Does what it sets out to do, February 3, 2009

By	Michael A. Asleson - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

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.

1.0 out of 5 stars Big disappointment, February 2, 2009

By	Amazon Shopper "xenalyn" (Maple Grove, MN United States) - See all my reviews

We chose this scale because of the variety of metrics and the larger capacity, since my husband was 335 lbs and I was 270 lbs. Unfortunately, the scale would only measure weight, not anything else! It kept giving us error messages. We followed the troubleshooting directions to no avail. Thinking we just got a faulty machine, we returned the product and ordered a replacement (Amazon was great!) but the replacement has the same exact problem. The only difference is that it has worked twice in the past 4 weeks, depending on how lucky you are that day. The other problem we've had is that even though it does measure weight, the scale is so wobbly that you can get up to a 5 pound variation within minutes just depending on how still you stand. It is on a hard-surface, so the instability cannot be attributed to that.

Overall, we are very unhappy with the product. We have chosen a Tanita scale that performs much better!
