Review on Tanita 1584 Digital Scale White by Smriti Pearson

We weighed our baby on a hospital loan that was very accurate (it was the same type of $800 scale used in the ICU). We had to return the hospital scale but we wanted to keep weighing our baby so we bought these. Claimed accuracy was only 1/2 ounce, but for our purposes this was perfectly adequate. Unfortunately, this scale turned out to be 8 ounces off compared to the hospital scale. Хуже того факта, что вес был неточным, был тот факт, что степень вариации менялась день ото дня: за 1-недельный период, когда у нас были оба веса, больничные весы показали нормальную прибавку в весе от 1/2 до 1 унции на каждый Day. day, but over the same period, the Tanita 1584 scale showed no change in our child's weight at all. If we were to rely on the Tanita scale alone, the apparent lack of midweek weight gain would result in an unnecessary visit to the pediatrician. So I don't expect this scale to have the same accuracy as an $800 hospital scale, but this one was ridiculous and didn't even come close to the 1/2 ounce accuracy advertised by the manufacturer.
