I'm sorry, but I have no clue what feedback of mine you are referring to. Please be a little more concrete. Thanks

That is what scales do.....measure weight. This is a scale, so yes, it measures weight as well as other measurable factors. This would be like asking if scissors cut or a toothbrush brushes teeth. :)

Hit SET to go into profile mode... you select the PROFILE NUMBER (1-8) with up-down keys, Hit SET... then Male/Female using up-down keys, hit SET...then HEIGHT I think...hit SET... step onto the scale BAREFOOT and hard floor/NO RUG... the scale reads your weight... then STAY ON it... it goes through your BMI, Water Weight %, Muscle Weight %, and your BONE WEIGHT... do the same drill for any other profiles you wish to store.......(MAKE SURE YOU PULL THE BATTERY SHIELD TAB OUT!! hahaha) GOOD LUCK

No, it doesn't have that sort of function. You can however use the the Weaker/Stronger setting to tune the amount. It is pretty consistent with the amount it puts out so you may be able to fine tune any weight requirement you need with a scale and the stronger/weaker options.

I can confirm that this works on people who are 4' 11". My girlfriend uses it and that is how tall she is.

My scales are analog, not digital, but mine weighs just a hair over 3 oz, so I would say yes, and I have checked ithe scales with calibration weights.

Is the scale level? If on a carpet, it may not be accurate. Try a hard surface.

I've used mine, as well as the same one owned by a friend and I always have this issue as well. Even when I'm down to my lowest weight and have a six-pack and veins popping out on my arms, and legs with a BMI right in the middle of normal range, and after a trainer used calipers and measured me at 6-7% the body fat percentage on this scale has never dipped below 20 percent. At a heavier point (winter weight haha) I've switched immediately from a handheld that measured 11% to this one which gave >23%. Makes no sense.

I've never tried it, but have you checked with the USPS to see if they have any calibration weights on site? I'm sure their scales, like all scales, have to be calibrated regularly. You could take it to them and see what they say. I live in a rural area and the local branch is never very busy, so I'm sure they would help me. A busier location may not be as helpful.

I have not, but I think you may be disappointed with your results. My experiences continues to be that this devices is most accurate and reliable when your forearm is held in a position that keeps it parallel to the ground as when you are running or fast walking. When the forearm is held in another position its performance is highly suspect. I was sent a firmware upgrade in May of this year that helped a little but it still isn't ready for prime time in my opinion.

I use it for both arms and legs. When I use it for legs my upper thighs are working too. Try adjusting height of chair and tension. Hope this helps.

Once you step off it doesn't stay long .. but while you on scale it's showing the numbers as long as youre on the scale. Numbers are big as well in the lighted display. I love this scale.

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.

Eh at best it's just an estimate. I've hit my steps total sitting in my armchair watching TV before. You can change the sensitivity settings online, or you can wear it on your non-dominant hand to decrease sensitivity if it's a concern for you, but looking at the phone app and watching the steps register while I walked or just waved my arms standing still gives a good indication of what is going to register as a step and it does a decent enough job.

The way it works is you open the app then step on the scale. If it turns off, just step off the back on while you have the app still open. I will tell you that I got one of these for Christmas and before January 10th, it had stopped working. I will also tell you that I'm 35 yrs old, 6ft tall and weigh 192lbs. That scale continuously told me I was obese. Even with it showing my accurate weight. It's not a very nice motivator.lol. I'm glad it died.

I have only used on the bathroom floor. I just tried it on carpeting and it didn't work. I believe most scales work consistently on a hard surface, not carpet.
