Medical Grade Floor Scale - Portable - Easy to Read Digital Display - Heavy Duty - Home, Hospital & Physician Use - Pound & Kilogram Settings - 12" x 12.5" Platform - 550 lb Limit by Patient Aid

Probably the best scale we have ever owned. It’s a bit too large to leave sitting out but fits easily in the cabinet. Large display with both pound and kg settings. No problems after 6 months of use.

A fine, well-made tool. Reliably and ACCURATELY weighs whatever you put on it... up to 550 lb. No remembering and factoring in prior readings... no biasing, no bs. Just quick accurate weights. Needs a hard flat surface. Mine rests on a flat wooden board (12" X 24") on a carpeted floor. Grouted tile floors might also be problematic... in which case, just put down a flat board for the scale to rest on.

If you're sick and tired of scales lying to you, this is the scale you need. Every scale from the cheapest $10 up to the fancy $90 ones with apps all lie. They add up the weight distributed over their load cells, pick a value, and store it. If you try to get back on the scale within a time frame (up to 3 minutes) it will give you the identical weight if you're within a certain tolerance of the last saved weight. This, I presume, gives the illusion that their scale is precise, with repeatability. However, if you wait 5 minutes and try again, it will add up a new weight and it will almost certainly be different - sometimes by pounds! Not this scale. This scale is simply reading the load cells from the controller, adding them up, and displaying the value in increments of 0.2lbs. No memory, and high precision (multiple reads give same reading). I can't attest to the accuracy, but given the high precision, you could easily correct accuracy using known weights. The only scale more precise than this is a full analog scale you'd find at a Dr's office.

As many have mentioned the $25-50 digital scales are junk. I started off with one from Wal-Mart and went thru 5 of them to find one that worked only barely, was not accurate and very fussy where it was placed on the floor and where I stood on it. Tried others brands that were no better and read 100s of reviews. At that point I searched on doctor scales and found this one. At 5-10 times the price it is a tough choice to make and I’m glad I did. I have only had it a couple days and if my opinion changes I will edit this review. My initial thoughts are this is a real quality piece of equipment. I’m using the battery and table-mounting holder for the unit at this point as I don’t have a place to leave it out yet. It takes a 9v battery so I suspect it will last a long time. If not I will switch to the included wall transformer. It reads out in .2 pound increments and I tried it a dozen times and it repeated each time. Something none of the cheaper scales would do. There is nothing fancy about it simple square box that sits on the floor and is nicely finished. It is pretty heavy and that is a sign of quality IMO. The 550 pound rating is pretty high and anyone under 450 should have no worries with this model. I’m a big guy at 270 pounds and that may have been some of the problems with cheap scales with a 300-350 limit. I don’t really know. I’m giving this 5 stars and 2 thumbs up.

Easy to use and reliably accurate.

so happy I got this medical scale! My other one was a cheap gifted one from my mom. Tbh it was somewhat accurate, however taking off clothes or holding something extra wouldn’t change the number (on my cheap old one). However on the medical scale I can pick up something even as light as a Toliet paper roll and it will show the weight difference! Or I can take off my Apple Watch and it will show the weight difference! So happy to have this on my weight loss journey, it will help significantly! No more second guessing my weight, and can see water weight retention through out the day! Wooo hoooo!!! I totally recommend it! Btw the metal pieces it comes with isn’t to mount it to the wall. You can see in the description pics the metal stand is to set up to hold the digital reader on a table. To mount it on the wall just get two screws and screw into the wall and mount the digital reader directly onto the screws! Yay! Awesome scale!

The scale appears to be accurate, it is easy to read and the platform is ideal. The one negative is that the readout unit did not come with a method to mount it directly on the wall with a proper tilt for easy visibility. We were forced to improvise...we used the mounting plate (meant to be used on a flat surface) inside the conveniently located medicine cabinet fastened down with double sided tape. It takes up room in the cabinet, but resolved the issue. We are happy with the scale and would purchase again. It is a good choice.

I'm not one to leave reviews very often. Generally it's only when something doesn't work. In this case, I'll make an exception since this scale is outstanding. Platform is roomy enough for me and the display, while small, is easy to read which is nice. Most importantly however, this scale weighs me the same down to the tenth of a pound EVERY SINGLE TIME. I've gone through 2-3 other digital scales and every weigh in was an adventure (and not the good kind). With the other scales, there would sometimes be fluctuations between 3 lbs and 7 lbs and getting an accurate weight was nearly impossible. With this scale, it's on the mark every time. Absolutely a 5-star review. This scale has earned that and then some.

Me gustó que es fácil de usar, pero en el instructivo trae dos puedas para darle soporte y solo me llegó una pieza y no puedo pararlo en mi escritorio como en la imagen
