This scale is very accurate (it gives the same weight as my doctor's scale...unfortunately, lol)
Because of the low profile it is easier to get onto the scale with my bad knees and the larger size means that I don't have to do a balancing act while trying to weigh myself. And, unlike other scales I've owned, I don't have to stand in exactly the same place everytime to get the correct reading.
Buy this scale, you won't be sorry.

I had high hopes for this scale, having seen all the wonderful reviews it received, however after using it for nearly a month, I am a little disappointed.
The fact that it can accommodate multiple users is a great feature. Very easy to use. The large platform makes it easy for large people like my husband and I to stand on it securely.
My one complaint is that it hasn't lived up to the expectations I had in terms of accuracy after reading the reviews on this page. If you always weigh in the same place, standing exactly in the same position and on the same spot on the scale... it can be accurate.
I performed some tests over the past few weeks. The measurements varied by as much as 3 lbs taken over the span of a couple minutes. Standing perfectly centered on the middle of the scale with my feet together gave the lowest weight. Separating my feet by three inches made me almost 3 lbs heavier. Keeping my arms to the side of my body versus keeping my hands clasped on my back also gave similar variation. Knowing this, I always weigh in the exact same manner and I have been pleased with the results, but it shouldn't be so fussy.
Overall, it is a good product and obviously some careful thought went into its design, just have to be aware of this problem when you use it.

I was very pleased with this purchase!
I am very tall and weigh just over 400 lbs. Until now, i couldnt find a scale that accepted weights over 340 lbs and were affordable.
This scale is very wide and i have no problems stepping on it. Its also about 1 inch from the floor, so its easier to step on then typical scales.
The scale has 9 large buttons on the front. Each of the 9 buttons can be used to record your weight. So you can have 9 different people keep track of their weight or you can use the 9 buttons yourself to show progress, alternating between each button.
You press one of the buttons with your toe to activate. You step on the scale, it takes a few seconds and then beeps, thereby recording your weight.
It can display weight in pounds or kilo's. It also keeps track of 1 decimal place. For example if you weighed 400 1/2 pound it would read 400.5 lbs.
The best part is that it records your previous weight to compare with your new weight. This has been very helpful for me as it lets me know what i weighed the last time and shows progress (did i lose or gain).
Overall, this is the best scale i have used. Its very large, very wide, easy to use, has a large display screen, is very close to the ground and is perfect for someone like me who is very tall, very large and has difficultly with balance.

Another big guy here (~350lbs) and I concur with what others are saying. Does not take up much space, yet is plenty wide to step on comfortably and even though it is fairly lightweight, it feels very sturdy. Been using it for a month or so and am perfectly happy so far.

In the weigh of this scale (pun noted). This scale for weighing over weight people works great. I've heard other people in my household say that if you weigh yourself more than once at a time the weight varies. Well one, I don't do that, anymore. And two I've known that to happen on other scales, so I know NOT to do that. Great scale overall.
