Review on Borg High Accuracy Modern Scale Silver by Kim Savage

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Inaccurate like other cheap scales

I bought this scale because my digital scale readings vary wildly with temperature and/or humidity. Based on the reviews on here I figured that was the real deal. However, after two months, it was impossible to reset this scale. At first everything worked perfectly. I turn the dial, zero it, stand on it carefully, note the reading, then stand up - the needle is now 5 pounds below zero. Touch my foot lightly and now it's somewhere else. Use the dial to reset it to zero and step on it - I get a different readout. To repeat. All of these readings vary by 5-10 pounds, making them as inaccurate as any other cheap scale. I've tried moving them from the bathroom to the kitchen, but it doesn't matter. All hard surfaces. I guess I'll have to spend more money and buy the real deal elsewhere.

Pros
  • Nicely
