« OMRON FAT ANALYZER »

EVERY TIME I USE THIS THING I GET A DIFFERENT READING AND DIFFERENT VALUES... I'M ONLY USING THIS AS A GUIDE TO TELL IF I'M DOING WELL IN MY FAT LOSS GOAL, NOT A VERY ACCURATE ITEM IF YOU ASK ME BUT I DOES KINDA TELL YOU WEATHER YOU ARE GOING IN THE RIGHT OR WRONG DIRECTION.

« Not very accurate »

I purchased this item last year to aid in my weight loss goals. Of course, I wasn't pleased with the readout I was getting since I was overweight. I recently got serious about losing weight and have lost 23 lbs. I only have 10 more pounds to go. The Omron tells me that my body fat is the same as when I started. In fact, some of the readings I get are higher than when I started. I have followed the directions to a tee and am still getting different readings every time I use it. In addition, my BMI has remained unchanged. I think the Omron is easy to use and is somewhat accurate, but obviously not as accurate as I had hoped. I think the only way to get a real idea of your body fat and BMI is at the doctor's office or at a gym where they have a water tank.

« What a Rip Off! »

I was so excited to get this fat analyzer thinking that it would give me accurate information for me and my body size. I input the data regarding my height, weight and age just as it asked, I held on to the handles and it gave me a reading. I agreed with the reading because I know just about where my BMI is for my size. Then I decided to input my ideal height, weight and age as guest #9, just for grins and giggles. So I put these figures in and held on to the handles. I was thinking that it would error out, or something, because surely the "electrical current" would find me out to be a liar. It didn't. It gave me an ideal BMI and body fat percentage for the data I inputted. This machine is nothing more than a calculator. Don't waste your money. I saw a BMI/fat analyzer at my local grocery store for $7.99. I bet it's the same thing as this one, only without handles.
