Product Reviews of Tanita HD351 Digital Scale with Memory Function

Product Review: Finally a reliable scale
Summary: 5 Stars

I have had this scale for several months. My previous scale seemed to vary as much as 5-7 lbs from the Doctor's office scale and would also reflect dramatic weight changes daily (even though I would weigh myself at the same time each day). This scale has proven to be more reliable and consistent It has memory sets for displaying previous weighing for 4 or 5 individual users. This is somewhat nice but one has to trigger his individual memorized weighing by pushing a numbered button at the base of the scale with his toe which is somewhat of an encumbrance - but I'm not sure there is any better way of handling this multiple user feature. All in all, I am well pleased with the scale and believe it is worth its relatively higher price.

Product Review: I like it!
Summary: 4 Stars

Easy to use
Very accurate (unfortunately some days)
Large, easy to read numbers
Only negative was Expensive, but if it lasts, it will be worth it.

Product Review: Very happy with my new scale!
Summary: 5 Stars

I was a bit put off by the price of this scale, but now that I have it and been using it, it's worth the money. It's very accurate and not at all temperamental. I could tell right away that it's a quality scale. If you have a little bit extra to spend, I highly recommend this scale.

Product Review: Be wary about using your Tanita in a bathroom.
Summary: 1 Stars

Be wary of Tanita and their warranty claims. The product itself was decent, and fairly accurate, however Tanita is not a company that prides itself in customer service and product support. I used my scale in a normal bathroom environment, and after just 3 months you could see evaporation underneath the screen. I don't know if a gasket had a crack in it, or what the issue might have been, but the unit couldn't withstand the normal humidity of a bathroom. In fact, the unit was a good 20 feet from any active water, like a shower and tub.

I shipped the unit in, and without even so much as a courtesy call, the "customer service manager" returned my unit with a note that my warranty claim was refused, even though I had spoken to someone before about the issue, and said it would be replaced no problem. The customer service manager was nice enough, but said that even though it was well within the boundaries of his discretion, he was going to refuse the claim, because they refuse all like claims regarding evaporation. He even admitted that it happens fairly often.

Stay away.

His recommendation? Buy another Tanita, and not place it in the bathroom. Right.
