    5 Stars
    Assembly was quick and easy. Instructions were good - and I consider it ...
    Concerned while I was reading reviews of other units. As a former design engineer I really did not want to get stuck with a product that would not be repeatable each time I stepped on it. 1st thing I did was on and off 5 times - it always read the same!Assembly was quick and easy. Instructions were good - and I consider it to be well made! It is not cheap but is a great value - and worth every cent! Heavy gauge metal - cast parts - easy to assemble, adjust, use, and to read. Could not ask for anything better! VERY pleased.Then the next day I go to a new doc - and surprise they weighed me in on the EXACT same scale!The nurse was wondering why I was checking it out so carefully ... so I had to explain. Worth a chuckle!
