You want to (not) know what you weigh? Then caution: This scale is merciless and shows you the kilos whether you want or not. It does not help if you put the thing on a different ground or by changing the posture shift your weight. They can not be manipulated. But it is important that you first reviewed before top positions whether the initial display is set to 0.0. However, this is quite simple - just before tapping times and check the display. If the balance is wobbly (because, for example, the bathroom tiles were not just placed 100%), then kanns well be that the scale 1.0 or more indicates without someone stands on it. But if then 0.0 will appear - boldly up to the thing and eyes and go! That the scale works, I've only now experienced at the airport. My suitcase weighed at check exactly what my Soehnle had home also displayed. Even more proof I do not need! Whether I would buy the scale again - of course! However, I hope it keeps for a long time through. Whether I can recommend the scale? Why, surely! Price and performance are here perfectly "in the balance"
