I have been using EKS scales for many years and they have never been reliable (cheapish and bought from Argos) I take my weight to be accurate once I have measured 3 of the same weight in a batch of 3-6 weighings. This is the same whether I measure in Metric or Imperial, and as I record Fast day in Metric and 'my fitness pal' (which links to Garmin Vivofit) in Imperial it is driving me mad.
As you can imagine this takes quite a while every morning doing at least 6 weighings and measuring my waist with tape measure.
The previous posts on this site relating to scales are mainly dated 2013-2014 and I wonder if anyone knows of an accurate scale that only requires one of each measurement to get an accurate and consistent reading. My scales are situated in kitchen on Flotex carpet tiles (pretty rigid on floor boards so unlikely to be affected by carpet and underlay in any other room).
Also what about the BMI and fat measurement facilities of some scales? Earlier posts seem to consider them inaccurate although some sort of starting reference point would add another dimension to overall weight loss/gain. I prefer digital scales as my eyesight is not that good, even with specs and the analogue ones are very hard to read, And another thing, the irritating EKS scales need to be tapped to turn on the display every time I weigh, so 8-10 taps & on/off scales every morning! A set of scales that only need to be stepped on to turn them on would save a bit more time.
