First crammed - and then knocked on wood ...

Video at Amazon.com View One might demonize Scales & fear, still there is practically in every average household at least one representative of this genre. Digital is for several years the measure of all things mechanical scales against eke out their miserable lives maximum even in local surgeries or swimming pools.

The Grundig PS 4110 is a relatively simple representative of its kind, so waived gimmicks and gadgets a la body fat analysis and company. Is Accordingly, the current low sale price, which fortunately did not negatively reflected Line in good haptic and visual appeal of this premium. Quite the contrary - the bamboo wood decor is surprisingly high and pretty and a large, blue backlit display informed of the sad reality of angefutterten pounds to right & left hip.

Is operated, the balance - not quite up to date - by four (included) AAA batteries, here unsure recommends the acquisition of appropriate batteries to avoid escalating battery wear. Fortunately, the integrated Auto On / Auto Off saving - mode but according to energy.
