Difficult to use
You're probably wondering, how can a scale be difficult to use? Good question! I wanna know why it's difficult to use, too! I don't really trust the weight it's giving me because it changes. But it's not like it changes every time I hop on it. For example, the first time I used it, I was excited to try it out, so I weighed myself in my clothes. I then took off my clothes and weighed myself, and it gave me the exact same weight. I had to pee, so I did that and weighed myself again...same number! I kept trying to get the number to change (partially because it was telling me I was fatter than I wanted to be). The number did change after a minute or so, but I hadn't done anything else to make myself lighter. It just seemingly arbitrarily changed and then was stuck on the new number, even after I put my clothes back on.
I don't really like the fat measurements mode, either. Everything flies across the screen relatively quickly, so you have to have the placement and sequence of all the measurements on the screen memorized or you'll miss it...not very user friendly.
Yeah, I pretty much hate this thing and never use it. I should've returned it.

Didn't work properly
This scale measured my weight just fine. That's great, but it's supposed to measure body fat too. I tried it about 20 different times and there was only one time that it was able to actually give me a reading. Every other time it gave me an error. My body weight is average and I did everything it said to do in the manual. The strange thing is, if I changed my profile from male to female but left everything else the same (such as height), it was able to give me a reading. I suspect the figures were wrong in that case, though, as it uses your sex to do its calculations.
Even if it would have worked properly there are better designed scales out there. The numbers on this display are tiny, cycle quickly, and only are shown 3 times before the unit shuts off. If you get off the scale to get a better look at the numbers the scale shuts off immediately. There is no memory for recalling the figures later.

NICE SCALE
SCALES SEEM TO BE ACCURATE ON THE WEIGHT PART, DON'T REALLY KNOW ABOUT THE OTHER STUFF YET. THEY SEEM TO BE A LITTLE FLIMSY SO I STEP ON THEM LIGHTLY. THEY LOOK NICE
