I am delighted with these scales, they are neat, pretty (with the silver sparkle) and accurate, easy to use and a great addition to my bathroom. They neatly slide beside the bath and are ready to had, springing into life when you step on them!! I love the fact that you can have stones, pounds, and ounces as well as kilograms. All round a great product!!

Great scales

I bought this to replace my old Salter scale that finally stopped working, and I’m really pleased with the upgrade. The glitter rose gold platform looks elegant in the bathroom — it has a soft shimmer, not overly shiny or cheap looking. Setup is instant: remove the battery tab, place it on hard floor and just step on — it gives a reading immediately without having to tap first. The large LCD display is easy to read standing up. Accuracy & consistency: I stepped on several times and it gave the same number every time, which gives me confidence. What I like • Instant readings as soon as you step on • Very consistent and stable numbers • Slim, lightweight and easy to store • Battery included • Looks premium compared to many plastic scales Worth noting • Like most digital scales, must be used on hard floor • No app/Bluetooth — this is a simple, non-smart model Overall, this is exactly what I wanted after my old Salter broke — simple, accurate, looks nice, and does the job well. Would buy again.

Ok, without going into too many details, lets just say that these scales can handle 27 stone on top of them. I have no other scales to compare them to, so I cant vouch for their accuracy, but they seem fairly consistent, which is far more important anyway. If you lift the scales up and reposition them, they seem to need a period of recalibration with you standing on them a few times before it reaches some stability in the readings. If you're going to be moving them about a lot, then you may find the readings vary a lot. Its as simple as that really, just keep them in one spot and don't move them about. As demonstrated already, they are strong. The display isn't backlit, but is large and easy to read as long as you can see around your enormous belly. The display can be set to read in pounds, stones, or even kilos if you are one of them newfangled measurement types. Resolution is to tenths of a pound, (one decimal place), which is good enough. There's no body-fat measurement or anything like that, so if you are looking for just a simple weight measurement, then these are really good for the price. I paid £15 by the way, and for that price I wasn't really expecting much, but I am pleasantly surprised by these. I would buy these again if I broke them.

I bought these digital Salter 9028 bathroom scales to replace another Salter bathroom scale (the same make and model) that were mysteriously chipped. These scales are made from tough tempered glass and are strong enough to take the weight of a person up to 180kg or 28 stones. They also have a 15 year guarantee. I keep our scales in the bathroom, on the vinyl floor next to the toilet. I weigh myself every day without fail before I have my morning shower. The scales are accurate although my weight does fluctuate slightly from between .02 of a lb to 2.0 lb at certain times - I appear to have developed water retention/hypertension. My weight never used to fluctuate so. I am not of a heavy build at all (I am not going to give you my weight, but I am a size 8-10, 5'9'', and my body mass index is within the normal range for my medium build) and I eat a healthy diet rich in fresh fruit and vegetables, and high in protein. I have cut down on the amount of carbohydrate in my diet and anything that might cause water retention like alcohol and caffeine ( I rarely drink alcohol these days and I have cut out caffeine completely), but strangely it hasn't made any difference. I don't eat a high fat diet either-quite the opposite, or consume sugar or sugary foods or drinks, or processed food. Its so strange I can't explain it. I can go to bed to sleep at my usual time before midnight, and then wake up the next morning bloated and suffering from water retention. This obviously shows on the readings on the bathroom scales. It is definitely NOT the scales. They do give accurate readings. Anyway, returning to the mystery of the chipped scales. I have knocked these scales against the side of our ceramic toilet more than once, sometimes so hard that I thought I might have chipped a corner of the toughened glass. There was no damage whatsoever. In fact, the scales chipped a tiny amount of ceramic off the side of the toilet, thats how durable these scales are. In which case I find it very strange that my last scales were very badly chipped about halfway along the underside of the edge of the right side. This area of the scales never came into contact with anything. The corners of the scales which occasionally got knocked against the side of the toilet are still perfect and undamaged. To me the large chip on the underside of the scales looks as if it has been carefully done using a hammer. I have taken close up photos of the chip, and it looks as if the scales were hit twice with a hard object like a hammer to deliberately cause the damage. How strange. It was definitely not caused by me or by my partner. The only explanation I can think of, is that it was caused by the same people who have been breaking into our home and who have stolen both mine and my partners identity, and who have vandalised and damaged our other possessions including furniture and our carpet. The two blows to the underside of the scales that caused the damage must have been done by someone very skilled, someone who knew exactly where to strike the scales, and exactly how hard to strike them, in order to cause the intended amount of damage. Please see my other reviews.

Great scales. Simple and very easy to read but make sure they are on a hard surface!

Looks pretty at least on top. Carpet feet provided are ugly plastic and are not a good fit one kept coming off. Battery compartment difficult to open and close due to safety screw. Plastic would not come free until i removed the battery. After set up stepped on 6 times and got 6 different results some not close to others. Either due to faulty product or badly fitting carpet feet. Thankfully my previous Salter scales are still working 8 years plus.

This is the most accurate scale I’ve had so far. It gives accurate readings on carpets or uneven floors because it has carpet feet. I tried 4 other scales that gave me 3 different readings on different spots on floor that ranged in difference from 3-5 lbs within a 5 minute period, so I never knew what the correct weight was. The key with the Salter scale is the carpet feet. So no matter what spot on floor or type of floor you put it on, you always get the same reading. I’m very happy with this purchase.

La bilancia funziona ma ha un piccolo difetto ossia il display non è retroilluminato per cui in una stanza non propriamente illuminata non si vede benissimo. Il rapporto qualità prezzo comunque la rende conveniente se posizionata nel punto giusto.

Sehr edle Waage ohne Schnickschnack.Pures Design.Zeigt immer das exakte Gewicht an auch mehrmals hintereinander. Manchmal trifft man mit dem Vorfuß nicht genau die On-Funktion.Trotzdem würde ich die Waage jederzeit wieder kaufen.Klare Kaufempfehlung.Einziges Manko war die Verpackung:die Waage hätte mit ihrer Verpackung in dem großen Karton besser gepolstert sein können.

Después de meses de funcionamiento tengo que decir que funciona perfectamente, los materiales se ven de muy buena calidad y estéticamente es muy bonita.

Good bathroom scales, sturdy, shows Kg, Lbs & Stone, and so far accurate.
