Product Reviews of Omron HBF-500 Body Composition Monitor with Scale
Product Review: A sufficient scale
Summary: 4 Stars
I've had my scale for a few weeks now, and it works like a charm. It displays weight, body fat %, skeletal muscle %, BMI, and metabolism (amount of calories your body needs in a day). It supports up to 4 users (you have to enter some personal information like age and gender for the body fat %, etc, to work). It supports anonymous users, but for weight measurements only.
All in all, I'm quite happy with it.
Product Review: good for dieting
Summary: 5 Stars
Since I like to weigh myself daily and see my progress on my diet, this is great. I was a little hesitant about having some sort of electrical pulse sent through me to check my body fat, but it can't be felt and I only do that about twice a month anyway. I probably get more exposure using my cell phone and standing near my microwave. I wonder if all this adds to cumulative exposure like radiation???hmmmmm. I think I'll google that. Anyways, the scale looks great, very high tech, and does exactly as advertised and has helped me stay on my diet. So you have to ask yourself...what's worse for your health a little battery electrical charge or staying overweight and getting diabetes, heart disease, osteoarthritis, no love life, etc.Product Review: love it!!
Summary: 5 Stars
I love it.. it does just what it says.. read the directions and you will have no problems. easy to read, I weighed myself by two other scales ad it was a 1/4 pound difference. not to bad on accuracy in my opinion. not sure about teh body fat and bmi yet, but as long as I can see a downward trend Im happy.its not all about numbers anyway.Product Review: boo
Summary: 1 Stars
I've had this product for almost a year and I keep using it because I'm cheap, but it really doesn't work. The scale is consistent only if I put my feet in the exact same position and stand the exact same way every time. I even have to keep my arms in the same place every time to keep it from changing the reading. If I haphazardly step on and off, the reading can change by up to 5 pounds! What good is the tenth of a pound reading when it's five pounds off? Even with all that effort it is still only a consistent weight, not an accurate one. I have weighed myself all over town to compare and the Omron is always off. As far as the body fat monitor, I am 5'3" and weigh 128 pounds and it often tells me that I am 32% body fat, which would make me obese. I'd have to be a skin bag of blubber with no bones or organs to be 32% fat at my height and weight. I'm pretty disappointed after having read so many good reviews before I bought it. Product Review: Good scale
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a very good scale and is pretty sensitive to changes in weight...can even measure if you had had a glass of water.
The body fat measurement seems to be pretty accurate too. All in all, I love this scale.
