Salter 9182 SV3R Glass Analyser Bathroom Scale, 150 kg Max Capacity, Digital Weighing Scales For Body Weight/Fat/Water, Muscle/Bone Mass, BMI, 8 User Memory, Athlete Mode, Easy to Read Display, Silver

First one I ordered didn't arrive, but that's not the product's fault. Amazon made me wait 15 days and then sent another one first class, which arrived today. 1) These scales look really nice 2) You MUST put the carpet feet on if you are going to use it on carpet, even on short pile, because the scales are so low-level that carpet gets in the way and the readings are *way* off with the regular feet (for me it was 10kg less or so - I wish!). Just peel off the rubber feet (a little stubborn) and clip in the carpet feet provided. Other reviews said to screw them on but there were no screws provided with my scales. The feet seem to snap on fairly well without screws. There are no instructions provided for changing the feet... Bad Salter! 3) The readings so far seem very consistent. The accuracy is quoted at 0.1kg or 0.2lb. I have mine on stones and pounds, and the readings seem consistently the same in the last decimal point. 4) Who knows if the fat/water measurements are "accurate" but these also seem fairly consistent between uses. I came out at the fat end of OK, my wife at the fit/muscley end - lucky me! BMI calc seems correct (weight in kg divided by square of height in metres). 5) Note: The instruction booklet says not to use the fat/water/BMI measurements if you have a pacemaker or implanted device, or if you're pregnant. 6) The four-person memory just remembers the gender, height and age of four people, not their previous weights/BMIs/readings, but that's OK for me. 7) For a quick weigh you just press the scale with your foot and wait for it to zero. Then stand on it. This gives you your weight only. 8) For the full monty you need to select your "slot" (memory number) using the buttons on the back edge, it then shows the stored height and age (to ensure you're on the right slot, I assume) and it then zeroes itself. You step on, it weighs you, showing the weight as it goes, then displays four little 'o's as it does it's fat measurements - another 3-4s. At this point it either then just displays your weight again, or cycles through your weight, BMI, fat and water percentages a few times before turning off. If your feet aren't "moist" enough it just shows your weight. I had to dampen my feet to get my readings: my wife's feet were apparently already moist enough... ;-) 9) The booklet (10 pages each for a dozen languages) says it is only calibrated for kids over 16 and the BMI/fat/water for those over 20, but that hasn't stopped my kids being entertained by it and using it anyway. Overall, I'm very pleased so far - the price was reasonable, the main function of the scales seems accurate and consistent, and it also has the whole fat/water gimmick! EDIT: 2015-07-20 Just thought I'd add that, three years later, my scales are still working perfectly. I've changed the battery once and think I need to again soon as it flashed up a "low battery" message a week or two ago.

Excellent precise scales even on carpet with the little feet . Good large platform though you have to watch not to hit the arrows with your toes or it changes the stones into kg . Look great !

Good scales but oddly inaccurate rounding errors. Mine reports (e .g.) 12st14lb instead of rounding up to 13st. Not a problem since I know there are 14lb in a stone and know how to round up. You'd have thought Salter would know this as well given the number of scales they have made over the years!

This is the second time i have purchased these scales, not because they broke, just because they're really good scales and my friend stole the first pair. For their price the scales have a surprising amount of functions, it's really useful to be able to track your body fat and water levels alongside your weight as it gives a better view of your overall health than just weight alone. It does take a little while to get the scales set up to give these extra details as the instructions aren't the clearest, but once you've set up your profile it's quite easy to access the extra information. I do live alone though so I don't have to scroll through different profiles manually as mine is the only one on there, I can imagine it would be more annoying if there are 3 or 4 of you using the scales and you needed to select the right profile each time your stepped on the scales. Build quality is excellent, the scales are big enough that I can easily fit on them (though my feet are only a size 10 so if you're Bigfoot maybe you'll struggle), and the figures it gives seem fairly consistent so I think they are quite accurate. The scales also feel sturdy enough to handle quite a bit of weight and my previous ones were still good as new after 3 years use. The only maintenance they required in that time was a new set of batteries, although in hindsight they also would have benefitted from a theft protection device of some sort. If you have less cheeky friends then me though you'll likely be very happy with your purchase.

Please note that I use these on my tiled bathroom floor and my comments are based on that use. I work in a laboratory that has highly accurate, calibrated medical scales, The reading I get from the salter scales very closely matches the scales at my workplace and gives me great confidence in the accuracy of the reading. I tried taking my weight 5 or 6 times in a row and the reading was identical each time. For good measure I then drank a large glass of water and remeasured myself, the result was 300 grams heavier than before, just as I would expect. I tried 2 or 3 more times and again got identical readings each time. After reading some reviews saying the scales were not accurate and varied wildly with each measurement I was very pleasantly surprised by the level of accuracy. Electrical impedance is not an accurate measure of actual body fat percentage but again I tried the function 4 or 5 times in a row and received the exact same answer each time which gives me some confidence that I can use the number it gives as a tool to track changes rather than an exact figure. I found setting up my user information (age, height, sex) very straightforward using the 3 buttons located on the scale and the body analysis function worked each time without any problems. The non-slip feet work well on my bathroom tiles and I have no made use of the carpet feet. There is a 3 way position switch on the base of the scales which allows units to be changed between kilograms, stones and pounds and pounds only.

Die Salter Waage ist schön, nicht so groß ,hat aber ein großes Display

Sottile e precisa. Ottima

Nachdem ich im neuen Badezimmer die Optik durch neue Badmöbel und einige Kleinigkeiten verändert habe, wollte ich mir auch eine neue besser ablesbare Körperwaage gönnen. Daher habe ich mich dann sehr gefreut, als mir die Salter Extra Wide Analyse-Skala Digitale Waage zum Testen über das Vine-Programm von Amazon angeboten wurde. Dies vor allen Dingen deshalb, weil mit der Waage Körpergewicht, Fett und Wasser, BMI, BMR, Muskel- und Knochenmasse gemessen werden können. Zusätzlicher Bonus ist halt auch noch, dass sie auch noch für mehrgewichtige Leute konzipiert ist. Dank Prime wurde ordnungsgemäß sowie schnell und sicher innerhalb eines Tages geliefert. Herstellungsort der Waage ist (wie leider so vieles) China. Nach dem erfolgten Auspacken habe ich die Körperwaage dann direkt ausgepackt, mit Batterien versorgt und in Betrieb genommen. Mittlerweile habe ich die Körperwaage mehrere Wochen mit dem nachfolgenden Ergebnis getestet: Optisch ist die Waage sehr schön und wertet jedes Badezimmer auf. Mir gefällt das Verhältnis zwischen Glasplatte und Metallteilen an der Seite, unter denen sich die Sensoren für die Messung verstecken. Das Display ist schön groß, die Zahlen sind auch im Dunkeln gut zu erkennen, da das Display beleuchtet ist. Die Waage hat etliche zusätzliche Funktionen wie Körperfett- u. Muskelmessung, Kalorienberechnung etc. Außerdem können bis zu 10 Personen ihre Daten hinterlegen und alles speichern. Wichtig war mir auch, dass die Waage auch ein höheres Gewicht aushält und nicht bei 120 kg den Geist aufgibt. Die Waage hat eine gehärtete Glasplatte und hält bis 250 kg aus. Auch misst die Waage genau meine Daten, wie ich auch bei einer Messung auf einer anderen Waage feststellen konnte. Diese unterschieden sich bei einer Testung mit meiner alten Waage nicht wesentlich. Alles in allen: Hier habt ihr eine optisch nicht nur gut aussehende Körperwaage für einen angemessenen Betrag, auch die Leistung der Waage ist stimmig. Hier ist die Qualität ihr Geld wirklich wert. Von daher kann ich die Körperwaage nur empfehlen. Ein echtes Highlight in jedem Badezimmer. Dieses Produkt wurde uns kostenlos im Rahmen des Vine-Produkttestprogramms zur Verfügung gestellt. Ich gebe hier nur eine persönliche Einschätzung ab. Bei Problemen mit dem Produkt werde ich die Rezension entsprechend anpassen.

Works fine, does everything it advertises. Extra point for the impedancemetre, giving fat, water and muscle ratio and bone mass, although I don't see much change in these values.

Bonjour bon pèse personne qui peut atteindre 250 kg, l'ecran et lisible et tout est noté dessus. C'est simple rapide efficace. pas d'application ou autre. Il fait en plus du poids : la graisse/l’eau, l’IMC/BMR, la masse musculaire/osseuse. Pratique et efficace.
