Weight Watchers WW185A
Repeats same weight
From day one this scale kept repeating the same weight. This is a WW scam to keep you buying their wares. Even when I held a 2L container to make me 2kg heavier it told me I was the same weight. Do not waste your money on this scam.
Purchased in at Bing Lee for $80.

Scale is not reliable.
The scale seemed to work really well for a while and it has some good features, but there is something clearly wrong with it. It's almost like is has a "memory", so it will give you a reading on a particular day, and then gives exactly the same reading day after day. You almost have to do a "reset" by weighing something completely different, then if you hop back on, it "resets" itself and seems to be accurate for a short time. I love some of the features where it provides bone density and body fat data and you can store individual information, ...
Read morebut this is all secondary to the primary purpose. If it can't provide reliabe and accurate weight readings, the additional information is superfluous. I bought the scales a few years ago, but I am so disappointed with it, that I felt I had to write a review. I can't recall where I bought it or how much I paid, but I know it was not expensive.Purchased in .

Waste of money
These scales have a mind of their own. I knew I lost weight, it remembered the same weight . I decided to buy the seca analog scales Which doctors surgery use

Weight readings totally wrong
I haven’t managed to get these scales to work since I purchased them. Straight away there was a error message which I managed to clear after resetting the scales (taking battery out) 3 times. Once scales were reset, the weight was completed inaccurate displaying my weight at 23st when I am around the 10.5 stone mark!!!
Absolutely terrible product!!
Shattered glass
Scale disintegrated into a thousand pieces. This being caused by accidental knock to one corner when moving in the bathroom.
Expensive and dangerous.
When working did not perform accurately.
Bought Wellcare for 9 dollars from Harvey Norman, simple and accurate.

Fair
Not as good as expected, one rubber stand fell off in the first week, had to go back to exchange to another. It requires a bit of setting up in order to get the fat% info, which is fair enough. But afterwards, I found out that the figure is not reliable. I wish I had known before I purchased. It's not mentioned on the package.

Just won't work properly
Bought the WW710A model, paid more for a 'reputable brand'. My mistake, I should have read the reviews first. I have owned a body analysis scale in the past (not WW) and it worked perfectly for 10+ years until the digital display gave out.
This piece of junk, what a pain to try and set up! Finally got it to register one person's details, briefly, before they disappeared and it went back to weight only before turning off. Never could program other people in. Gave up in disgust and will be returning for a refund.
Went into Target and got their brand name scale (for half what I paid for WW). Looks great, programmed 4 family members in easily within 10 minutes and works as it should. What is so hard about that WW?

Inaccurate readings everytime
These worked briefly but then suddenly gave two of us different readings each time I stepped on. It is not good enough when you spend money on a reputable brand supported by a reputable company. WW.
