 Accurate and Stylish! January 8, 2008

When I took this scale out of the box I was shocked. I almost didn't purchase this scale because of how stylish the Escali TT200 looked. I did not realize this scale has a glass face, it looks awesome even sitting in my kitchen.
The display is easy to use and I was able to get this unit up and running just by reading one page of the instruction manual. I don't understand why people are complaining about the manual, right when you open it up there are ten steps to guide you through a complete setup. A youngster could do it.
The scale was very accurate and is as solid as a rock. I come from a family where we are all pretty heavy and this scale held us up with ease. You can even stand on it with one foot and it won't budge. It's nice to see the body fat and water readings and they are accurate for the average user. Any body builder would probably get this measured at the doctor or with his/her physical trainer so I wouldn't skip this purchase just because you don't think the fat/water readings will be accurate.
For such a quality product I can't believe the price. It would be foolish of you to pass up this product if you are looking to save a few bucks with something cheap.
Don't worry if you are a heavy person. I thought I weighed over 400 pounds but I ended up being much less then that and with my new workout routine I can't wait to see those numbers drop.
If you seriously think you are over 440 pounds first of all let me say I'm glad you care about your health and are taking the time to look into purchasing a scale. Your best bet would be the Siltec WS-1000L High Capacity Scale, as that will be able to handle anything under 1000 lbs.

This is a wonderful and easy to use scale!! Like many other customers, we had our user numbers set up and running with in minutes. The manual was easy to understand, contrary to what other users said. There is not an athlete setting - just male and female - despite what Amazon claims.
To just weigh yourself, place your foot on the scale, wait for it to turn on (it shows 88888) remove your foot, and wait for it to set to zero, then weigh. If you're wanting your body fat/water %, you have to use your user number that's specified to your height and age. It seems like many people thought that the body fat/water % feature wasn't working - you have to be in the user setting.
Although this is a high capacity scale, there is no minimum weight for it to be effective. Neither myself nor my boyfriend are over-weight or obese, and the scale works great and accurately for both of us. My favorite part is that it I can track how much body fat I'm losing instead of tracking my pounds lost (when you lose weight you tend to lose muscle too, unless you weight train, in which case you won't see the pounds drop so much as see the fat slide off slowly). I like being able to accurately track my progress based on fat lost.
Good scale February 24, 2009

I bought this scale after a 10 min search and review of products available at Amazon (lots of them available and my head was spinning).I decided to pass on the big brands (Conair, etc...) products because it seem to me they are all hit am miss (some are god some are really bad...too many choices and not consistent quality and too litle time to read all the reviews and choose a good one). I decided to buy this scale because is made by a company that specializes on scales only and they offer a 5 years warranty on their product so they must be confident in their products.
Compared to my existing scale (a gift from my friends, made by Healthmeter or something like that) this scale is very fast and the measurements are very good (good accuracy both the resolution and repeatibility...yes, I am scientist). I tried many scales in various local stores here in the DFW Metroplex and this scale feels more solid than any other that I've tried in the stores.
The fat measurement are simple to set-up(even a caveman can do it:), just enter male/female, age and higth) and they were were reliable in my case. I am a large frame guy, 5'11" and 190 lbs, and get 18% fat and 60% water every single time I measured myyself for the past few weeks. Still trying to shake loose the 5-10 lbs holiday lbs :) Btw this is teh first time I decided to contribute a litle... so this is my first review ever :)
Not for use for people with pacemakers or other implanted devices March 24, 2009

Looks like a great scale, but I had to send it back to Amazon (a process that was amazingly easy). The box the scale came in was clearly marked, "Not for use by persons with pacemakers or other implanted devices"...
So.. since my husband is getting a pacemaker this week, I had to send the scale back. It really should state that about pacemakers somewhere in the description, but, since it did not, I thought I would give everyone a heads-up.
