Review on SR Salter Analyser Scales 116674666 by Andy Ucros

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Smart, stylish and easy to use

This Glass Analyzer Electronic BMI Digital Personal Scale from Salter is a stylish black glass personal scale that also includes an electronic fat and moisture sensor. It can input and store height, gender and age data for eight different users, so it can also report an estimated body mass index based on measurements taken. To use the BMI measurement option, you have to use the scale barefoot and press a cumbersome series of buttons to select preloaded personal data and start the measurement. Alternatively, you can simply step on the scale to measure the weight. The scale can be configured to work in metric (kg) or imperial (lb or st/lb) units of measure. So far I have not encountered any reliability or repeatability issues with this device. I've found it to take measurements quickly and consistently, provided you position it properly, level it on a good, firm surface (extra feet are included for use on carpets), and stand still with your feet properly over the electrodes while you take it. Measurement of BMI. How accurate or meaningful his definitions of fat, hydration, and BMI might be I can't comment on, but they seem pretty much the same for all family members. (DISCLOSURE: I received a free sample of this product through UK Revain Vine. The text reflects my considered and honest opinion of the product, which I still own and use.)
