Been using these for a few months, easy to set up and I used for just weight until I got around to putting in height etc for the other readings. Weight was consistent reading with other scales I had and if I try it 3 times in a row I get the same result. I don't change the units, and have it on a flat wooden floor, and the glass design is ideal and unobtrusive. I have no idea how accurate the body fat/water readings are, I just see the measurements change consistently as weight changes - I am about to change the 'age' but as it will change the results I am leaving it a while.

Good scales. Good design that will fit in in any home. Can read both imperial and metric via a simple switch on the bottom. You can set up multiple users and add height so it will work out BMI. The only complaint I have is the buttons are on the back. If they were on the front you could control them with your feet rather than bending down. You do need to use them if you have multiple users set up and want to with out BMI. Comes with comprehensive instructions.

If the scale doesn't show you the fat and water percentage is because your feet are too dry or too cold. Use it after a shower, and it will always work. However, don't rely too much on the figures, but use it as a reference only.The instructions do not explain, but the person standing with the feet apart is the MAN the person with the feet together is the WOMAN. Took me a while to figure out this when I set up the scale for the first time.

This was bought for my 70 + year olds father as he suffers from dehydration which causes him to have life threatening hyperkalemia. I hopped that the hydration monitoring function would help him monitor his hydration levels himself and so reduce the number of times he was admitted to hospital.Although the scale is relatively uncomplicated to use, if you have any type of mobility or balance problems that make it difficult to touch your toes then this scale is nothing more than an overpriced bathroom scale for measuring weight. All of the extra functionality requires you to press small, not easily visible buttons underneath the glass plate.I doubt he will be able to use the other functions independently.Very disappointed.

Good bits
- Price
- Size (totally subjective, but it fits under my shelving unit thingy)

Up in the air bits
- I'm not really sure how accurate this scale is. I seem to have gone up circa 2kg since owning it vs other scales (but this could be because all the other scales were inaccurate, or I've suddenly just put on weight) but what I can say for sure is that the reading will fluctuate quite a lot if you move the scale a few inches in any direction (and this is on non-carpeted floors, both wood and lino). Having said that, I'm not convinced any digital scales have really solved this issue.

Bad bits
- Doesn't always give you the other readings, sometimes (mostly) just gives the weight and someones (occasionally) decides to do the rest...its pot luck.
- different icons are very small (e.g. water, muscle etc) but again, this is pretty subjective

Buy if you want a vague guide as to how much you weigh and can weigh yourself in the exact same spot every time to ascertain loss/gain based on whatever baseline figure you started with

Annoyingly, it's really hard to get a reading. You have to stand off the scales and try again (repeatedly) until they read correctly.

It's so unbelievably inaccurate. I am a different weight every time I get on. It varies up to 7 pounds..... I am normally around 9st but this scales can have me put on 7 pounds in a day. Just rubbish. And yes I have changed the battery and yes I use on a smooth tiled floor. Ha and on carpet and on timber. All various readings.

Good scales for a decent price. The only downside is they they don't work well on the carpet and I'm still fat

I thought I was losing weight. Then I started gaining weight. Then losing. I've tried a couple of times now and the weight varies massively between uses. I just weighed myself twice with about a minute between and got a difference of 5Kg. What's the point of these things as scales if they can't be consistent.... even if they were consistently wrong then I could at least track a variation/trend, but not if they effectively just take a rough guess!

I trust the actual weight reading pretty well, but my body water percentage is not 80% no matter how many days in a row it tries to tell me so, and my body fat is not under 3% because i’m pretty sure i’d feel a little under the weather if that was the case, considering i barely ever exercise and i’m not underweight enough. So i’ve given up on that part pretty quick but when I tested the minimum weight allowance to see if the 5 or so KG that it registers is accurate, and what i put on it was about 6 kgs, and the scale agreed with me, so i trust the scale. It’s notable tbh since i was reading online how home scales are never accurate and doctor scales are serviced every six months…. blah blah…. but this was insanely accurate and it wasn’t even very expensive! yay salter! always reliable. it’s a yes from me. i didn’t think there was a mobile app but you get five stars anyway for being such a great flippin scale
