Product Description

Product Description

Proper hydration is essential for life. Maintaining a healthy body water % improves overall health and keeps you feeling energized and operating at peak performance. Tanita's new Scale plus Body Fat monitor with Body Water % calculate body water levels using bioelectric impedance analysis (BIA), the same highly accurate method used in all Tanita's body fat monitoring products. BIA monitors body water % by sending a safe, low-level electrical signal through the body. Tanita's body water scales are the first of their kind available for in-home use.

2.0 out of 5 stars Disappointed, October 6, 2004

By	M. Blake (Milwaukee WI USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Tanita Scale Plus Body Fat Monitor with Body Water Percentage

While this product claims to measure body water percentage directly, it really just estimates it by using the body fat measurement and a calculation based on that for body water. It does not measure body water directly as the ad suggests so there is no additional feature of importance here. So, you'll never really know what your body water percentage is by using this scale. Also, it does not estimate it correctly for people who are overweight so it's useless unless you are of a normal weight. I would just buy the scale with the body fat monitor only. I was sorry I had made the mistake of ordering this one but don't want to bother returning it. They've also raised the price $20 since I bought it so it's really a rip-off now.

5.0 out of 5 stars Performs well, January 28, 2006

This review is from: Tanita Scale Plus Body Fat Monitor with Body Water Percentage

I have been very happy with this product. It performs as it advertises, was easy to set up and is a great value. There's lots of more expensive products but I can't imagine how they would be any better.
