Why You Should Monitor Body Water and Fat Percentage
If you're like most people, you're not drinking enough water. If you wait until you feel thirsty, your body is already suffering from the effects of mild dehydration. You continually lose water during the day through sweat, urine and breathing. The amount varies due to several reasons, including your physical activity level, illness, medications, poor nutrition, or even climatic conditions. Monitoring your body water percentage allows you to quickly compensate if your levels are low, allowing your body to function more efficiently. Having the right amount of water in your body will not only make you feel healthier, but you'll also reduce your risk of developing serious health problems in the longer term.

High body fat levels can reduce your endurance and have been linked to heart disease cancer and diabetes. Tanita's body composition analyzers monitor your body fat and body water levels with Bioelectric Impedance Analysis, or BIA, the same advanced technology used by doctors. Foot pads send a low-level electrical signal. Then BIA measures the resistance to this signal as it travels through the body.

The Tanita BF680W is calibrated for standard adults, children and athletes and stores data for 2 people, measuring body fat in increments of 0.1 percentage points. The scale's large, easy-to-read 2.25-inch, 2-line LCD shows weight and body fat simultaneously, and instantly compares these readings to healthy ranges based on the user's age and gender. Simply supply your gender, age, height and weight into the memory, step on the scale, and the monitor does the rest. The results are analyzed according to each user's information, and the result is the one of the most comprehensive at-home readings you can get at home.


Operating on four AA batteries (included), the Tanita BF680W is intended for use by persons up to 300 pounds and is backed by Tanita's three-year warranty.

Customer Reviews
User popularity level: out of 5 stars

Rated by buyers 1 out of 5 stars - Weight not correct
Scale records my weight two pounds less than my correct weight. I only discovered this from weighing on a professional scale at the gym. I called the company and they said it's a defective scale and I should exchange it through Amazon. In process of doing this. Hope it won't be a headache.


Rated by buyers 1 out of 5 stars - This thing sucks
I been using this product for about an year and let me tell you dont buy it save your money.Not even worth a dollor.Every time i step on this scale it says over 20 and sometimes 31% but my real bf is 15-17.14% bf difference is too much and even in athletic mode it never shows a value below 20.Save your money and get an Omron body fat.It way better than this crap and holds upto 9 people and close to caliper measure.


Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - excellent fat measurement tool
I've found this to be a great tool to measure my body fat. I've dropped 2% body fat this month but no weight - this means I actually am losing weight at the correct amount to improve my health & hit my goals - it doesn't show on a standard scale, but it shows on this one!

I'm very glad I bought this (not so about the calipers: they're useless, this is actually accurate!)


Rated by buyers 4 out of 5 stars - Great accuracy and consistency
I'm really pleased with this scale. At very first I thought the bodyfat reading was too low. Then I had a caliper reading done at the gym (by the same person that usually checks it for me) and the readings were within 1 percent of eachother. Now I'm convinced that it's really accurate and I don't have to bother doing it at the gym anymore.


Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - Tanita is Tops
Bought this scale after studying lots of owner reviews. My experience after about six weeks, matches best with the top reviews. The scale works correctly right out of the box. Setting up the data for two main users was relatively simple. Using the scale every day reveals that the unit functions reliably. It is sensitive and responds to daily changes in eating patterns, exercise activities and fluid intake. BMI and total body water percentage numbers remain very steady even though weight will fluctuate 2-3 pounds in a week. I can't say whether the BMI and TBW number are accurate in and of themselves, but they serve me well as reference points. I would certainly recommend this scale to other folks who want something more than a spring-based bathroom scale.
