"Best scale I’ve tried."
"I changed my review from a 1 to a 5...here's why I am impressed. However, I could not read the display and as executive/non-athlete I did not need all this information. Then the most amazing thing happened...this really happened...about an hour after I posted my review, I was contacted by the company. They read my review and apologized that my unit was not operating the way that it was supposed, discussed their high quality control and that this should not have happened, and then they sent me a replacement right away."
"A quirk inthe design is that it won't show a weight change of less than 0.2lb so you have to fake it out if you want fresh readings every time."
"This scale is very nice."
"It doesn't call me names or make fun of me in anyway, very respectful."
"Before purchasing, I had researched looking for the top rated home bathroom scales and was surprised when the choice this EatSmart scale."
"Today I walked into my bathroom and found the whole thing had completely shattered into hundreds of pieces. No one was home at the time, so I have no idea how it happened, but I am certain that nothing fell on it or knocked into it, no one stood on it or bumped it, and it wasn’t exposed to water or any extreme temperatures."
EatSmart's proprietary step-on technology allows you to simply step onto the bath scale platform and receive an instant, accurate reading to the nearest 0.2 lb. While this bathroom scale's slim, ergonomic design fits perfectly into any surroundings, its 15" wide non-slip platform safely weighs up to 440 pounds (one of the highest capacities on the market). EatSmart step-on technology provides instant weight readings - no more tapping the scale to turn it on!

I was somewhat surprised to receive an email response from the Vice President of EatSmart Products within about 20 minutes of the posting the above. He also went on to say, and I quote, "I was hoping to get you a replacement immediately under our warranty program. Further update August 4th 2010. Today I received an unexpected package via FedEx. A new scale from EatSmart Products, with a letter from the Vice President, apologizing for the lemon and enclosing a new scale, which, he informed me, has been thoroughly tested for accuracy. EatSmart clearly stand by their products, recognise there are occasional flaws, and quickly correct the situation. Yet another update: 11th June 2015 - moved to the UK, with my scale, which is still going strong, and still on the original batteries!"
"There were some questions and reviews that mention calibration, so I wanted to mention that mine ends up recalibrating every morning when I use it because of CATS."
"Glad I went ahead and ordered this product even though the reviews were 4.5 and another brand was a 5.0."
"Correction: After making this review, the VP of EatSmart products attempted to contact me regarding my dissatisfaction with their scale."
"I waited several months before leaving a review of this scale, because it seemed to be almost too good to be true with how well it performs.....I wanted to give it some time to see if it too would start giving crazy readings. I am happy to say that this scale is awesome, and no matter how many times I get on it, it provides the same reading."
"I thought it was beautiful (because, from a visual standpoint, it is) and I expected that it would work AT LEAST a year."

"We tried a different brand before getting this one and we have not been disappointed by the Etekcity scale. The day we received ours I had to go to the doctor so I weighed myself before leaving home and my weight was only .2 lbs different from the doctor's scale."
"I originally posted a 1 star review for this scale--one of the only really low reviews I've ever given--because the first one I ordered stopped working after one day."
"I am 367 pounds and it took a few times using it to feel like it was safe to hold my weight."
"I was using a cheap, inconsistent analog scale, but I recently decided that I need to get back into shape before jeans season hits (summer slacker!)."
"Love this scale & the measuring tape it came with."
"As my first point was thankfully it has the capacity for up to 400lbs because I now weigh according to the scale which i stepped on it three times to make sure it was the same all three times and sure enough it was the number showed a dreadful 394.6lbs so now with having this wonderful device in my life I will be able to track my progress because I recently have began to slowly be active again and eat healthier again so this time my goal is to drop under 250lbs this scale has truely given me a new reality check that is for sure and seeing that number is motivation enough to get back in to my better side of life no more bad choices thank you for my free item etekcity.oh yeah and it came with a cool little tape measure that has a retractable tape at the push of a button which is awesome :)."
"I bought this scale to help with my motivation to lose the weight and I am now down 12 pounds after only two weeks."

"It had become dissembled in transit and was quite confusing to figure out how to get the part lying in the bottom of the box back into place."
"Got fed up with unreliable digital scales, so I finally bit the bullet and bought this beauty after using them at my doctors' offices forever."
"Then finger tight the 6 screws. so can move top n base, place as instruction on a table, now. grab the tie pull till hook catches undo tie at the hook tighten screws set balance weights done injoy."
"Arrived when promised, no product damage upon inspection, easy to assemble (minimal effort required), calibrated perfectly and double checked it with a calibrated weight."
"Came in quickly and in good condition. Pros: Exactly as shown. mechanical scale with no batteries or electronics to ever go bad- long term investment. Sturdy enough for home use if not moved around much. 15 minutes to put together. instructions in good english. came with wrench to install the height measurement. easy to adjust exactly- I keep a dime sitting on the frame and trek it a fractional turn before using so I know it stays accurate. Cons. Workmanship and build quality is definitely lower than its big brothers I have used in medical clinics- but sufficient to do the work."
"Also, I measured the accuracy of the scale by using different weights and found that the scale is indicating that something is about .25 lbs heavier than it really is."
"I don't trust the height measurement as it appears to be off by about an inch from the doctors office and I see no way to adjust it."
