Is it accurate for larger weights?

it was fine on larger weights - anything under 9 lbs was not great... anything under 5 lbs was way off (problem with postal shipments)

What I do to get an accurate weight I put the box on top, read the result and then I take it off, I put the scale in "0" again and put the box on top again just to double check if it's the same weight. I believe is pretty accurate because I use UPS and is always correct on the weight. The biggest box I have weighted is 52.50 lb ...I hope this answers your question

I don't believe that's accurate it goes by arm movement. You can try and compare results.

Depending on your area, it might not be compliant with county weights and measures. The reason being is that the scale cannot be calibrated. It is factory set and cannot be altered.

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.

I use it with the paper rolls in it. It seems pretty accurate. The first time I filled each roll I counted and weighed them. I double check the subsequent ones after that by weighing them. They've all been right so far.

The scale does sit on Very short legs. So you want to be aware of that. The voice that announces your weight is clear and loud enough for most people. I have found it to be accurate as well.

I have not experienced any problem with consistent accuracy in weighing on this scale.

Yes, the weight changes when I move it. I also have uneven linoleum on certain parts of my floor though. My replacement scale has been fairly accurate on level ground. Weight only fluctuates up or down by no more than a quarter pound. So... My replacement scale is semi-accurate on a hard even surface. I can live with very small weight variations.

no, its just an accurate scale and has worked well. it can track 5 different weights

I don't know how accurate the bodyfat, bone mass index... But the weight is accurate. By just putting a heavy weight say a luggage or weights on this scale, it will still show the bodyfat and bone density. Haha... So I think it's is just a calculation and not really measured by the silver metal plate over the scale.

I have calibrated my set within 4/100 of a gm.That is using 100 gm calibrating weight.Not bad..

Not to my knowledge, no. On our farm stand we let the customers know it wasn't a certified scale but that we had tested it ourselves and found it to be accurate, and nobody had a problem with it. We always round the price to the nearest nickel anyway, so we don't need anything any more accurate than that. Your application could have different requirements.

Yes. I would zero it out before I use it (step on it until it lights up, then step back off before it can register your weight). Then step back on, and it should be accurate!

I have no way to verify accuracy since I don't have nist traceable standard weights. Precision seems OK. I have noticed that the scale sometimes doesn't want to zero. I'll turn it on and it moves away from zero (I have seen it go higher and lower). When it does this the zero may wander as much as 10 lbs. Eventually the scale stabilizes. I have not contacted the mfg. I find this annoying but am willing to live with it since it rarely happens.

As with most mechanical scales, it would be more accurate consistently if it were on a level surface. However, if you are OK with the inaccuracy of a scale on an uneven surface, than it should be fine.

That might be, but the weight will be correct. I've had great luck with this product.

I find the scale to be accurate. Hard to say if it is accurate to the oz level. It usually matches my good scale at home. I travel with the portable scale to help maintain my weight on long business trips
