Would this unit be as accurate for a child (for body composition)? Would it allow me to change the height for a user as he grows or is it set once you

not sure how accurate for a child, if I remember correctly I was curious and put my 10yr old it and the numbers weren't accurate for bodyfat but yes you can change the data (height, activity level ect.) whenever you want.

I found this unit very inaccurate as are many cheap home floor units. Look at other models or consider investing in a more accurate upright unit if you're serious about it.

The lowest age you can do is 10. Under a certain weight, it won't register the other measurements, as I put my 5 year old on it with the profile set to him being 10, but the gender/height set correctly.

Adjusting height is easy. One has to rotate a handle in a circular motion. Probably 7 & 8 year olds could do this but it depends a bit on size.

It's pretty accurate. You just have to be sure that it is on level ground. If it isn't, your weight will be different every single time.

My grandson is slightly taller than that and it is fine for him. I believe you adjust it for height. How long it will work for is another question.

My both my kids (6-9) use this item. I also use this with high school kids I coach. You can adjust the height.

I'm almost the same. My daughter was 10 lbs when she was born. I'm 5'6" and right now I'm 160 ish lbs. My daughter will be 2 this summer. My abdomen muscles were not growing back together at all (diastis recti) but I didn't notice until she was 9 months or so. The splint has encouraged a lot of growth surprisingly. You have to adjust it for it be comfortable. If you wear it consistently you'll probably see results fast. I don't wear it every single day but I can still tell the difference in my abdomen. It can get a little bulky underneath your clothes though. It compresses your waist and even lovehandles but kinds pushes up fat making a little roll at the top of my back. It's a good price for what you get so I suggest you try it Hope this helps.

No. It's way too small for the body you'd be all day using it. I asked if they make a body size said they are in development now.

Seconds as well. You can customize it with your birthdate height and weight. And it also has a heart monitor

Yes - tested it for accuracy by taking 3 year old's temp with this product opposite the brand his mother had. Then we did the same with an adult - yes you definitely can.......

It will know your general weight and bodyfat percent and can distinguish the user based on that. My sister and are generally the same weight (give or take) but my bodyfat is less than hers so we both can use the scale with no problems. I just step on, it measures me, and then tells me the user it assumes is using it. It's never been wrong yet, but you can change the user if it guessed wrong.

I truly suggest measuring and use the guide. It worked perfect for my daughter. Good luck.

That's how we used it with #1. He was born 9.1 and we had no weight issues. We continued to use it on the lower level when the time came.

Great question! One I wish I would have looked into before buying this system. This system is for babies up to 22 pounds. The Keyfit 30 will go up to 30! Wish I would have known that before buying.

It has to be adjsted to your child's height and hip level. As the child grows, height can be increased.

my son is 55 " tall and he sets on it ,it is for a small person not heavy for an adult , although I have set on it I would not recommend it.

I feel like you will have a problem with height before weight. My son used it until right before a year. Then he was too tall and it wouldn't go any higher.

Yes. It's great for weighing people. It's accurate at any weight from 1 lb. all the way to 330 lbs. I love it.
