The scale is wrong and the legs hang too far

So this is a completely different scale than the one I ordered but I will still check the scale I received. Therefore, from now on, I will only refer to the scale that I received. This scale is a 100% analog scale with huge. I mean the HUGE dial on the front. The dial takes up too much space and doesn't leave enough room for your feet. When you step on the scale, something will hang down, the question is what. Either your heels and two outer toes are hanging off the scale, or just your heels when you're actually standing on the transparent dial cover, which is actually ridiculous. Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha- ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha, in short what you are into is WAY too small. The scale itself is fairly large, but most of the surface area is taken up by a stuffing dial. Lol really terrible design. So, we mentioned that the scale is analogue and doesn't require batteries at all. The large dial is spring-actuated and there is a small black dial on the back of the scale. This dial is used to "zero" the scale when there is no weight on it. The dial works well, but I had a hard time keeping the "zero" scale. It's not very consistent at all. The scale consists of two main parts: the base (to which the legs attach) and the top (consisting of a stand, a clear plastic window and a chrome-plated trim ring). When standing on the scale, the upper part bends back and forth and deforms slightly. This is very noticeable when looking at the countdown watch face. The dial remains stationary, but the chrome ring on the top plate moves from side to side. Of course, that doesn't inspire trust. I know I'm heavy but damn I don't need a scale to break under my feet. Lol I absolutely do not recommend this scale. Even when I ordered these scales they are poorly constructed, uncomfortable to stand on, very thin and unstable. That's literally everything the scale shouldn't be. Rschunimagu. the only thing he really has is that he looks cool. Unfortunately, I think the optics are the only thing the engineers considered when designing this scale.

Pros
  • Excellent overall performance
Cons
  • I have doubts
