If you’re looking for a scale that goes beyond just weight measurements without overwhelming you with unnecessary features, this is the one. It’s not too bulky, and the display is bright and easy to read. Without this scale, I wouldn't have found the motivation to continue to take care of my body. The app syncs right up to my Apple Health app so along with MyFitnessPal, I have lost a little over 20 pounds in 3 weeks, which I fully believe wouldn't have been possible without this scale.

I knew IMMEDIATELY that the body fat scan was inaccurate when I got a “high" fat reading of 44% for my legs. I've got athlete-level, MUSCULAR legs from decades of cycling, skiing, ballet, and soccer. All of my weight is in my torso and abdomen, which got the lowest percentage on the scan.
Out of curiosity, I reset the scale to "male" to see if that would make a difference. The difference was HUGE. The leg fat went from 43% as a female to 28% as a male. I'm attaching a side by side pic of the scans I took as a female (left) and male (right). I'm also including a pic of my actual legs- there is NO WAY my legs are 44% fat. (I don't think they're even 28%, to be honest.)
It's clear that Withings is guessing body fat distributions based on typical male and female bodies- the claim that it's scanning different sections of the body is obviously false.
DON'T buy this scale. It's inaccurate and misleading, and there are better things to spend $400 on.

I am getting into competitive powerlifting, and I needed something to help me keep track of my body composition. This scale has helped me stay on track with my body fat % and has helped me lose more weight and gain more muscle simply by giving me a visual reminder daily of what I am working toward. Highly recommend for anyone who wants to keep track of these things.

The scale is nice, looks sleek, consistent weight measurements and nice to have the options of various features. Set up wasn't entirely straightforward and the app was a little complicated and I thought unnecessary.

I have been using this scale for about four weeks now and it is addicting. Unreal the things it can tell you from just standing on it. It knew my exact height... how? It works well with my Apple Products and connects to my health app - I highly recommended

In overall, it is a good product to give more information which are enough to know for people who use it daily basis to track their health status in high level.
Their apps is also good in general. Of course, there are some minor defects here and there but again in general, those are not impactful for daily use.

The results are NOT accurate. I had a DEXA scan done and this scale wasn't even close. The app kept losing its connection to my wifi. Customer service ranges from horrible to non-existent. I returned it for a refund. That's the good part - Best Buy is good about refunding your money as long as you're within the two-week window. And it did look pretty on the bathroom floor and gives a weather report.

I love this thing, it gives me a darn close estimate for each of them my metrics and is pretty consistent when I take it each day. Aside from that it really helps me to get a better understanding of my health trends and keeps me more focused on being health concious in terms of my personal goals.
