 Cheap Price, Cheap Performance May 14, 2007

Before I begin this review I have to get this out there, this is my first body fat measuring unit I have used and It is possible that I'm not utilizing it the correct way. That being said, I read the manual and pamphlet that came with the unit over and over again and looked up as much information as I could online to find out how to get a consistent and accurate reading. So far I have used a ruler to measure from the same spot as much as possible and my readings still can vary 10% give or take. I feel like my readings fluctuate less the more I use it, but I don't really think they're all that accurate, just more of a point of reference. I guess you could say that I feel like I "got what I paid for" from this thing. I don't see many other appealing alternatives out there in this price range, so maybe this is the best you can get for $30. Be prepared to be frustrated in the begin using this thing, because you have to figure out how hard to squeeze the caliper and when to push the button that takes the measurement, this can be tricky. The measuring tape included with the unit is very useful however.

A little hard to take consistent readings but that's probably b/c it's hard to pinch the fat the right way. With practice though it gets easier. Key is consistency with the how/where you take the readings. Well worth the cost.

This probably isn't as good as the high-end body fat measurement devices, but for the price, it's pretty good. You kind of have to practice with it a few times to get consistent measurements, and the tricep measurement can be tricky if you're doing it yourself (I hold my arm up so the fat/skin is easier to reach), but all in all the total body fat is really close to my trainer's measurements, and he uses one of those expensive calipers. It also holds data for up to 3 people.

I have been using this product every week. It is fairly easy to use once you get the hang of it. True...accuracy depends of the person taking the measurements. What is important is to be consistent in the way the measurements are taken.
As far as the results shown, they can vary for other devices and you should always have in mind a +- 3% body fat range when looking at the fat % shown by the device.
