The Weight Watchers Body Fat Scale is a body fat and weight scale produced by Conair, a hygiene products manufacturer. Unlike typical weight scales, the Weight Watchers Body Fat Scale claims to measure your body fat percentage, allowing you to continually monitor changes in your body fat percentage in the convenience of your own home.
Features
The scale measures body fat by using bio-impedance technology, which sends a safe level of electrical currents through the muscle and fat. How fast it travels through the muscle and fat is calculated against a person's height, age and gender to produce a body fat measurement.
Claims
According to Drugstore.com, the Weight Watchers Body Fat Scale can influence people to lose weight for the long term, encouraging them to stay on track with their diet and fitness goals. It also claims to offer the most accurate body fat and weight measurements possible on a digital scale.
Components
The Weight Watchers Body Fat Scale features an easy-to-read digital display, the ability to display weight in pounds or kilograms, a non-slip platform and a Longlife 3V lithium battery. The scale can also store the data of up to four people and accommodates weights of up to 330 lbs.
Issues
According to ConsumerSearch.com, body fat scales, such as the Weight Watchers Body Fat Scale, are not accurate. The readings can be altered by bladder fullness, foot calluses or even how much water you drink.
