Scales > Weightwatchers Scales

Advantages: Smart, versatile. A lot more information that just weight
Disadvantages: Buttons not 'toe-friendly'. Information overload?

You can bet your bottom dollar that if the Nibbles household is in the market for a new set of bathroom scales, it won't just be a mechanical set with a dial that spins ferociously before settling to give you the bad news (or slightly better news if you can find that 'special' bit of carpet where you always seem to weigh less). Oh no, this would need all the bells and whistles to rival the display that hangs above the patients head in the sick bay ...
...Watchers® Body Monitoring Precision Electronic Scale (model 8976U) comes in. It takes 10 calories off you just saying it! Weighing in (ouch) at £49.99 from Argos, they don't just tell you your weight, and at that price I should bloody well hope not. UPDATE: These scales are now freely availible at around £25, so that makes them slightly more palatable. I have to admit that they're smart though, being largely made of a thick toughened sheet of ... Read review

I did find the instructions a bit repetitive, but the information ... Read review

...scales are actually made for WeightWatchers by Babyliss. I should also mention that on the box of these scales it advertising that you can receive 2 free copies of the WeightWatchers magazine, this is because you get a discount on a year’s subscription. I think this is a bit misleading, but if you already get the WeightWatchers magazine this may be an advantage. On the back of the box there is some information which is clearly trying to sell the ...

Advantages: Saves a profile, Quick
Disadvantages: Rather ugly

I got these scales and my first impression was that they are not much to look at, but at the end of the day they are bathroom scales. The first thing that I noted when using it is the speed at which the can measure your weight, it takes seconds. It can save up to 10 people's data, and then measures not just the weight, but your body fat percentage, body fat weight, and your hydration levels. They are are a good buy, perhaps a bit expensive but they ... Read review

Advantages: Display, price, size, everything!
Disadvantages: If you want one that measures body fat as well, this hasn't got it

...a leaflet to subscribe to Weightwatchers magazine. The leaflet (at least in my scales) gives you the option to subscribe for 3 months at £5 and then continue the subscription at £30 for another year. I didn't subscribe because I don't like the idea of having to call/write to cancel, because they automatically sign you up for a year subscription after the end of the 3 months, and I am the kind of person who forgets about it until I see that the direct ...
...I think "well, now I have paid, why not?" and I end up with magazines I don't read and subscriptions everywhere. The manual has information about the scales, instructions for use, a list of safety cautions, instructions to replace the battery, information about the guarantee period, the Customer Services details and some advice about using your scales. DESCRIPTION The scales measure (in cm) 32.7 (W), 30.7 (D) and 2.1 (H), so it is really ... Read review
