Accurate & Inexpensive - My One Year Long Term Review
We have been using this Etekcity digital scale for a year now in our our home are very pleased with the scale so far. We had purchased this scale to replace our previous Sunbeam manual , Spring loaded bathroom scale which was horribly inaccurate and deliberated for a considerable amount of time between this scale and the FitBit Aria smart scale . In the end because of the huge price difference and very positive reviews on this scale made us go with this oneDesign, Construction & Build-------------------------------------- The scale is feels heavy for its size mainly due to the thick, monolithic glass sheet stepping surface of the scale- All our fears or cracked or broken glass due to stepping on it frequently, bumping or dropping it were unfounded in the past year ( we did all of them !) , so its definitely sturdy and well built- The two tone black-sliver finish on the scale looks ultra modern and chic- The digital readouts are large and backlit in a pleasant not-too-strong blue which is visible both in light and complete darkness. I often check my weight on the scale during midnight bathroom visits.Long Term Accuracy---------------------------- When we initially purchased this scale i used a 10 lb Rice bag to measure its accuracy and it was always within 0.2 lb of 10 lb with repeated tests, which is very accurate for a digital scale and well suited for measuring body weight- Another pointer to the accuracy of this scale is that the weight that we got for our toddler son from his pediatrician using a professional balance scale matches the results we got from this scaleI tried the same accuracy test today after a whole year of use & abuse:10 lb Basmati Rice Bag : Scale Measured = 10.4 lb6lb Dumbbells : Scale Measured = 5.8 lbAs you can see that even after one year the scale is fairly accurate , for all I know it might be 100% accurate as well as I have no way of certifying that the 10lb rice bag or the dumbbells are infact their true stated weights.Battery Life----------------- The scale is still using the two original AAA that came with the package even after a year of frequent, daily use so I'd say its great!Cons----------- About the only con about this scale is that the glass surface, being glass, needs frequent cleaning as it shows water stains. we usually wipe it with a damp cloth once every week so its not too bad. If you are going worry about keeping it spotless always then you'll going to have a hard time :)Overall we are very pleased with our purchase and couple of our family friends have also purchased it after seeing it in our home and can highly recommend this scale if your are looking for a good looking , inexpensive and accurate digital scale.

Seems very accurate to itself at least, sometimes with digital scales you can get on and off ten times and have 10 different numbers but this one has a very small variance. Looks good and also heavier than you expect which I choose to believe means quality.
First of all, this scale NEEDS TO BE ON A SOLID, FLAT SURFACE. A lot of reviews have complained about the scale not working when placed on a carpet, but scales don't work on carpets. It has to do with the sensors in them. Before you get upset that your scale isn't working, place it on a hard surface. This is a great, simple scale. It comes on quickly and automatically when you step on. The output is backlit, so its easy to read even in dark environments. It is precise within a tenth of a pound, which is really more precision than anyone needs but at least you know you are getting an accurate reading. The scale is sleek and looks good in a bathroom. Its the perfect scale for someone who just wants a scale. It seems like all scales are becoming smart scales one way or another and becoming outrageously expensive in the name of being able to track your weight automatically on your smart phone. This scale is perfect and at a great price for someone who just wants a scale.
*****UPDATE****** After owning this scale for a little while I've noticed some negatives. First, this scale shows every smudge and water mark. Going to the bathroom and a little droplet splashes out? It shows. Flicking water off your hands after washing and some falls on the scale? It shows. It's a little bit annoying because it makes the sleek scale look messy. You have to clean it like every week if you want it to look at its top. Secondly, the scale kind of cheats. If your weight falls within 0.6 pounds of your last measure, it will just revert to the previous measurement. It gives the scale the illusion of being accurate (because the weight readout doesn't jump around) but it can actually be inaccurate if you actually lost half a pound.
I still think its a great scale that is very accurate for the most part but these two pitfalls are a bit annoying.
This scale is very well made and looks great in the bathroom. It is very easy to use. Turns on automatically as soon as you step on it. The display is bright and very easy to read. Scale is accurate
Replaced a more expensive, but much older, electronic scale - and this is by far the better of the two.
First, the scale came a day sooner than I thought it would which was a pleasant surprise.
Second, the scale came in a nice and simple package, with a small reasonably well written manual.
The scale is also nice and simple in design and appears to be far more expensive than it is - its a steal @$20. It feels well made and was thinner than the scale I had before. The glass top is a nice touch and the scale has a classy appearance.
It comes with batteries AND they are standard AAA batteries so replacing them is easier than those small round flat batteries that my old scale had. The read out is backlit blue, which I found a little hard to read and the display is on the small side. But again, if that was part of the compromise to get a lower price, its not an unreasonable one.
Since I had the old scale as a point of reference, this one appears to be quite accurate and measures in .2 pound increments (there is a switch on the underside of the unit to change to Kilograms if you prefer).
Overall, this is an excellent basic scale at a great price. If you don't need wireless connectivity and other whizz-bang features and just want to know what you weigh, this is the scale to get - inexpensive but looking like it isn't.
