I am going to send it back. It is confusing to use to set up users then weigh in under your user number. It’s too complicated to use at 4:30 in the moring!

La Balanza y Monitor de Grasa & Peso, es muy completa, muy facil de configurar y usar. Dispone de 4 perfiles que pueden personalizarse para cada miembro de la familia, lo que demuestra que no es balanza comun y corriente.
Usa solamente pilas o baterias AA, es relativamente liviana, diseño compacto y moderno, con su display de lectura digital da la sensación que estamos en presencia de la nueva generación de balanzas para el control de peso.
La unica observación que le hago al fabricante es que debe permitir la lectura de las mediciones realizadas en varias unidades de medida. Esta balanza solo muestra el peso en Libras (lb) y la altura en Pies (ft)y pulgadas para el mercado americano. Otros mercados, usan medidas de peso en Kilogramos (Kg) y altura en Metros (m) y Centimentros (cm). Esta opcion permitiria seleccionar la forma en que se muestra el peso y altura de acuerdo su escogencia. Es por ello que lo califico de 4 estrellas por esta omision.
Apesar de este detalle estoy muy complacido con la compra realizada ya que el precio es muy accesible si comparamos todas funciones que posee esta balanza y la buena reputacion que posee el fabricante Omron. La recomiendo.

This item has some nice features, but they are not always accurate.
Since I weighed less on the old bathroom scale, I think I like it better than this one. My wife likes to keep track of all that stuff, but I’m a guy that wants the simple result.

maybe it is bcos i have set up anything. but this was the first instructonal manual i have read so far. it was easy and straght forward. i followed t step by step but maybe it was not enough info for me. i got it in February and can switch it from users and every other thing but this machine says i weigh 45 pounds!!!! i would ever want to weigh that and that is definately not my weight. It has been under my bed and i am very reluctant to reread the instructions. . . . . i wonder why it doesn’t give my right weight. is it bcos my feet are longer than the foot pad? i have thought of everything. . . . i hope soeday it works cos i am sure i can’t return it now. . . .

Looks like a nice unit but does not work on carpet. Most other brands include longer feet to work on carpet floors but this did not and the scale was totally wrong on the weight.
