Health O Meter 450KL Mechanical Beam Scale with Height Rod, Capacity 500 lb, Graduation 1/4 lb, 10-1/2" Width x 14" Depth Platform

Great item for the price! I have had it a couple of months and it works great

I found it very easy and straightforward to assemble, as most of the work is done already. I did, however have a brain cramp when I first tried to weigh myself. Lol I didn't get that the big blocky sliding weight needed to be go the far right at first, but I figured it out by gosh. ;-). This is a very nice scale and I hope to have it for many years. If I had one criticism it would be that I wish the platform were as wide as it is deep, but at least it's sturdy so that's good.

The two of us are significantly different weights, so we have to change the larger bar every day. It doesn't move as easily as one would think. You have to lift UP and OVER. And it's loud when you do that, so waking your partner can be (is for us) an issue. Other than that, it appears to be accurate, but hard to calibrate with our doctor's scale, as any home scale would be. All in all, we're happy with the purchase. We had wanted a "doctor's" scale for a very long time, and this one was rated very highly, and in a price range we felt was OK. If we had to do it again, we'd probably still buy this one. Hope this helps..

A bit of the pain in the butt to get the bottom on. but is pretty straight forward. So for I like the scales good price for what you get.

Scale is off by 8lbs, height retractor sticks and bends . Poorly made product.

For home use, this was a good purchase. I don't need hospital quality, hospital cost items at home. This scale is accurate, easy to read, and (it seems) durable.A good purchase for us.

Proper value to quality and I rarely give 5 stars. Remember you're only paying a couple hundred so this is not a scientific instrument...perfect for home gym.

Top quality, solid and 100% accurate. Worth every penny.
