Product Description

With a capacity of 500 lbs, the seca 700 mechanical column scale is an ideal solution for weighing overweight patients. This is due partly to the generously proportioned, low platform. The slip resistant cast iron base and anti-tip column design also allows patients to be safely measured and weighed. The scale is printed on both sides, allowing both patient and nurse to read the weight.

19 customers mention14 positive5 negative

Customers like the weight measurement of the scale. They say the calibration is simple, accurate, and easy to track daily weight. The scale is also perfect for monitoring weight changes and is easy to read at eye level. The balance beam is easy, and the weights were calibrated already.

"...The balance beam is easy to calibrate, but to get it absolutely perfect, you'll want to spend some care and attention...." Read more

"...That's it. Height calibration is even easier: Set a height on the rod, use a tape-measure or other verifiable measuring source and check the..." Read more

"...Also, it's easier to read your weight at eye level than look down at your feet. Based on online reviews I read, the Seca 700 is best of breed...." Read more

61 customers mention35 positive26 negative

Customers are mixed about the ease of assembly of the health personal care product. Some mention it's very easy to put together, the instructions are pretty clear, and the mechanism is all fairly simple. However, others say that the directions could have been much clearer, the pictures are hard to decipher, and there are no instructions for use.

"...For me, the device went together easily enough and with a tiny bit of head scratching I was able to figure out which screws belonged to each step of..." Read more

"...Scale specifics: Assembling it is a breeze. Just follow the directions exactly. This thing is well built...." Read more

23 customers mention9 positive14 negative

Customers are mixed about the weight of the scale. Some mention that it's not so heavy that you couldn't just pick it up and move it, it gives your actual weight, and it'll give you no more than 3 pounds of weight discrepancy. However, others say that it is bulky, isn't calibrated, and each time they step on it, they see a different weight.

"...They are sheet metal screws and not large ones. When I installed the first one it stripped out with very little effort, the second one went in fine...." Read more

"...It's not so heavy that you couldn't just pick it up and move it if you needed to...." Read more

"...It does take up a fair amount of space, and you obviously can't stash it in a drawer or under a bed when not in use, so you need to figure out ahead..." Read more

"...The lighter weight is smooth moving and stable - very easy to see partial pounds and it stays put when you get off...." Read more

21 customers mention14 positive7 negative

Customers are mixed about the performance of the scale. Some mention that it works well, is easy to assemble, and works great in a company gym. However, others say that it does not work properly, calibrate, or give varying results. Some customers also report that the balance beam does not working.

"...only gravity working on it, this scale corrected itself and appears to be perfect. The manual doesn't mention any of this...." Read more

"...If it isn't easy to calibrate, or accurate, and gives varying results, it's better off that you don't have it at all, as it makes your product look..." Read more

"...I setup the new one and it worked perfectly. No more +/- 3lbs and right on the money for weight...." Read more

"This is a great product. It works as intended and was easy to setup once it arrive (some assembly is required, but it was very easy to put together)...." Read more

16 customers mention11 positive5 negative

Customers are mixed about the value of the scale. Some mention it's very good value, while others say it'd be better off with another scale.

Precision &  Accuracy At Its Best

Precision & Accuracy At Its Best
First of all, Although the scale works well in my bathroom, this is no bathroom scale in any seance of of the word. This scale is nothing but pure precision and accuracy at its finest. The scale came with a very easy to understand assembly chart, and the height rod came with a booklet that made installation and calibration a snap. The scale is made from the highest quality materials, and from the looks of the materials the scale will last over a lifetime (It's a hand me down for sure). The scale is very attractive and has an eye candy appeal. The scale was a breeze to assemble as was the installation of the height rod. The scale being as precision made and accurate as it is, great care must be taken to insure that the scale is perfectly balanced when placing the counterweights adjustment units at Zero (0). The large counterweight has a micro-adjustment screw in the end to accomplish this task. When the scale is properly leveled using the adjustment feet on the bottom, and properly adjusted to Zero (0) using the counterweights, the Scale will measure 0 to 500 pounds in one (1) ounce increments with precision accuracy. I researched all the brands available in the United States and decided on the Serca by process of elimination. I would highly recommend this Scale to anyone who is interested in precise accuracy when weighing themselves. PS: Our local clinic uses the "D" brand and the Serca out shines it by infinity. Good Luck In Your Choice. Thanks to Amazon for a fantastic deal and quick shipping, also thanks to C. Pruett & AuraelC for the excellent reviews that helped in making my decision to buy the Serca.
Thank you for your feedback
