Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews). . . . in light of all the glowing reviews read! Based on other purchasers' experience I purchased this product. Looks good, very wide - as advertised, but disappointingly inconsistent. Followed all instructions, to the letter, but never managed to get it to weigh the same twice. Both my husband and I tried, and both got varying weights. Not helpful when embarking on a weight reduction regime, so it is unfortunately having to go back. Thank goodness Amazon's return system is so user-friendly.
Update August 1st 2010
I was somewhat surprised to receive an email response from the Vice President of EatSmart Products within about 20 minutes of the posting the above. He assured me I must have received a lemon (his words), which apparently happens from time to time. He also went on to say, and I quote, "I was hoping to get you a replacement immediately under our warranty program. Its the least we can do after putting a defective product in your hands."
I was duly impressed and told him so in my responding email. However, to date I have not received a replacement, nor do I now expect/want one to arrive. Having re-read other reviews of this and other EatSmart models, I believe this model is, in fact, a lemon. Other models seem to be consistently accurate, whereas, it appears, this particular model is not.
I am now looking elsewhere for a consistent and accurate scale.
Further update August 4th 2010
Today I received an unexpected package via FedEx. I had duly returned my 'lemon' and received a refund. I thought that was the end of the story. Not so! A new scale from EatSmart Products, with a letter from the Vice President, apologizing for the lemon and enclosing a new scale, which, he informed me, has been thoroughly tested for accuracy.
This accuracy I can confirm. Both my husband and I tested, and re-tested, and there was never a variation. I even tested it with one of my cats - spot on each time.
EatSmart clearly stand by their products, recognise there are ocassional flaws, and quickly correct the situation. I am a very impressed and happy customer. Obviously a company which values their name and reputation, and rightly so.

Customer Testimonial"This scale is a great bargain for the price. It has every feature that was important to me. Love the wide platform for ease in getting on and off the scale, the fact that it comes on instantly when stepped on instead of being tapped on, and the big bright display is so easy to read. Thrilled with my purchase, and would highly recommend this product."-- Holly Jo (VA)
"It's weird how little things make a big difference when you are on a diet. My husband got me this scale as a motivator (I was doing infrequent weighings at the gym) and boy has it done the trick. It's pretty, has a wide platform and is easy to read. But the only thing I really care about is the fact that it's accurate and consistent. Have never questioned one weight I have gotten. Awesome product." -- Snuggie Love 2010 (VA)
The EatSmart Precision Plus Digital Bathroom Scale comes with a manufacture's limited two-year warranty.
