Product Reviews of Omron HBF-500 Body Composition Monitor with Scale
Product Review: very inaccurate fat monitor
Summary: 2 Stars
the fat monitor on this scale is awful.We bought this earlier this year as part of a get in shape resolution. Both spouse and I weight lift-me mostly for toning, but he has big muscles.
I just had my body fat caliper tested at the local university, and have also used 2 different measuring methods. I come in at 22% (41 y.o female)in all methods. the Omron has me at 33.9 %. lol. I wear a size 2-3 in pants. My husband is 49 y.o and is 16% body fat but Omron has him at 37% which I believe is obese. We are both in the "fitness" range for our gender and age, so this thing is a joke.
The scale part is/was accurate. I have crossed checked it with doctor scales. However recently it has been less so. you can get on 3x in a row and get different weights. I am hoping it is just the battery...

Summary: 5 Stars
The scale did all that it said it would. We love it. It's sturdy and inconspicuous, takes up little room. The directions are explicit so it's easy to use. It does give you body fat and weight and body mass index, and does store the information. Turns itself off. It is just want we wanted.Product Review: Great scale - Terrible Fat % Monitor
Summary: 4 Stars
Despite the fact that the body fat % monitor is way off (it tells me I have the body fat % of an Olympic athlete...which I certainly am not) I still really like this scale. It looks pretty nice, and I like that it gives weight down to the tenths decimal (instead of just the closest whole number). Oddly enough the body fat monitor didn't work when I first got it, then it started working for a few months, then it stopped again. In the end: just don't expect the body fat % feature to work.Product Review: KD

Great scale did exactly what it said it would do, very easy to use and I love that it keeps your last weight-ins. I would recommend this scale to anyone that is trying to watch there weight and body fat.
