Does this scale fall back on previous weight measurements to seem consistent? Or does it actually take a measurement every time it is used?

It measures each time you use it. It also displays the previous measurement.

when you step on the scale it gives you the weight measurement for that moment. it will display your previous weight in a different color.

It takes a new measurement every time it is used. I have weighed myself before and after dinner. After it shows your current weight, it shows the previous weight.

I believe it takes a measurement everytime it is used, you can see the number fluctuate if you are moving or holding on to something. It seems very consistent I have weighed free weights just to test it out and it has been correct everytime.

I have had this for a month or so and have a feeling it falls back on prior measurements (readings from a few seconds ago) - for example if you step on it again right after your first measurement, it seems to gravitate towards, and lock in to, the same exact reading it gave you a few seconds earlier.

It does show the previous result in green; but apparently it also rounds off readings to previously-measured values rather than admitting small variations. To test this I weighed myself, then weighed myself with a cup of water, then weighted myself with half a cup of water over and over. Rather than giving a result somewhere between the first two measurements it would always give one or other of the first measurements. Then I weighed my wife, and then I weighed myself with half a cup of water again, and I got a different result.

Not really. Sometimes it works sometimes it doesnt. Its a great scale overall though.

I had that scale for a few weeks only. It never worked properly, I tried on different surfaces around the apartment. It would show different numbers every time I weighed myself and it went dead in about a month. It's not reliable, so you can't really trust what the scale shows.

It's accurate to a tenth of a pound. It does weigh consistantly, so if you step off and weigh yourself again there isn't a difference, unlike cheaper scales.

Yes it will, its very accurate. That is an odd claim for someone to make lol. great scale I love mine.

At first it was repeatable. After a year it moves around +/- 3%. The first step on always weighs high. Step off and back on and it reads a couple pounds lower. Repeat and it moves depending on where I stand. Weight forward is a higher reading, back is lower. If I shift weight a little while standing in the middle it will hunt around and not settle on a reading.

Like most scales, this scale IS NOT accurate on carpet. I brought the scale out to a fairly low pile carpet and weighed myself. It said I weighed 78 pounds. I weigh almost twice that number.

Yes, indeed it does. There is a switch on the back that changes the unit of measure from lbs to kgs. (and, I must say, I totally recommend this scale!)

I purchased this scale over 1 year ago and it is still very accurate. Most scales are not very accurate over 200 pounds. I weigh about 350 pounds and it still works great for me.

The scale is self-calibrating (simply step on ,off and on again). It needs to be on a level hard floor (not carpeted). It is more accurate and consistent than several previous scales that we owned (both digital and analog). If it not as described, the unit might be defective. You can talk to customers' service which is supposed to be excellent per other veviewers.

My husband has used this scale at our farmers market all season and has had no problems with it! It's really perfect for that. Weights an measurements came an checked it and it was spot on. Hope this helps!!

As long as you stand long enough for the scale to stabilize it should give you the same weight each time. What I mean by stabilize is once you've been on it a few seconds it will blink and then the number stays even when you step off so you can read it easier. I weighed myself, then do it again while leaning forward, then again leaning backwards, and then I stood on it with only one foot. I got the same exact reading each time.

Hello Pavan.I understand you are experiencing difficulties with your product.Perhaps there is a reason for the fluctuation.Have you placed the scale on a steady surface, free of movement and/or vibration?For further assistance, you can contact me directly via email [esty@measupro.com] or telephone [855-797-2253].Kind regards,EstySmart Weigh Scales

The scale actually does factor in the weight of the handle according to where the handle is when you turn on the scale. For instance if the handle is clipped in when you turn it on it will read zero. In the same way if you would unclip and hang on to the handle, then turn it on, and place the handle back down on top of the scale, it will now read 1 pound.This is why the readings will be different if you weigh yourself first holding the handle then weigh yourself again just stepping on the scale it will show you a difference of 1 lb.

My understanding of the product for accurate weights recommends the scale is stationary when taking a weight and also whatever you're weighing is not moving (Ex: fish). Anytime you are pulling and imparting more stress it will register it, but you would have to be looking at the scale to capture that information. I hope that helps.

I am unsure. I purchase a scale, had it sent to my mother in another state and none of my relatives could get it to work. We ended up returning the scale.

Mine does the same...intermittently. I don't know why. I have ascertained that it is NOT BROKEN. Just stuck. I keep tapping my foot lightly in the center of the scale until it shows 3 zeros. 00.0 Then I am able to weigh myself and get a proper reading. I weigh myself twice to be certain. Good luck. It is moody but, A great scale in general.
