Customer Reviews of Tanita BC553 Ironman InnerScan Body Composition Monitor PRO SeriesCustomer Review: Very good scaleI got this scale last week and love it. I realize some of the numbers are not exact, but it gives you a pretty guy idea of where you are. I had bought several other scales to measure fat, water, etc and found them lacking. The display is large and easy to read. It has 4 different user settings, plus a guest setting. The set up on those took about 30 seconds. I would definitely recommend this to anyone.

Why You Should Monitor Body Water and Fat Percentage
If you're like most people, you're not drinking enough water. If you wait until you feel thirsty, your body is already suffering from the effects of mild dehydration. You continually lose water during the day through sweat, urine and breathing. The amount varies due to several reasons, including your physical activity level, illness, medications, poor nutrition, or even climatic conditions. Monitoring your body water percentage allows you to quickly compensate if your levels are low, allowing your body to function more efficiently. Having the right amount of water in your body will not only make you feel healthier, but you'll also reduce your risk of developing serious health problems in the longer term.
High body fat levels can reduce your endurance and have been linked to heart disease cancer and diabetes. Tanita's body composition analyzers monitor your body fat and body water levels with Bioelectric Impedance Analysis, or BIA, the same advanced technology used by doctors. Foot pads send a low-level electrical signal. Then BIA measures the resistance to this signal as it travels through the body.
With the Tanita BC553 up to four unique users can benefit. Simply supply your gender, age, height and weight into the memory, step on the scale, and the monitor does the rest. The results are analyzed according to each user's information, and the result -- displayed in the monitor's easy-to-read 2.25-inch LCD screen -- is the one of the most comprehensive at-home readings you can get.
Operating on four AA batteries (included), the Tanita BC553 is intended for use by persons up to 300 pounds and is backed by Tanita's 10-year warranty.
