Review: Tanita Weigh Scales

 

Tanita was the first company to design and manufacture body fat monitoring scales for in-home use. The technology you get when you buy a home scale is based on the same advanced technology found in the professional body composition analyzers used by doctors, medical centers, professional athletic teams, fitness clubs and personal trainers.  Tanita continue to focus on meeting your needs with more styles, models and more personalized features.

Model BC-350 – Cost = $269.99

The BC-350 measures just over a half inch thick and weighs just over three pounds.  This product provides the in-depth analysis consumers have come to expect from Tanita, the world’s leader in body composition scales. By providing the following nine functions: weight, body fat %, body water %, muscle mass, bone mass, basal metabolic rate, physique rating, visceral fat level, and metabolic age, you are sure to keep a keen eye on your complete fitness trending. And, with an industry best 0.1 lb (50 grams) resolution, you’re assured the highest level of accuracy yet available in a consumer scale.

      We have been using the BC-549 model for about 2 years (similar to BC-350). It’s a very useful tool, very much affected by your hydration so you have to be careful to use it at the same time of the day to get reasonable comparisons.
