 He stepped on the scale--and got a weigh Jan 07, 2009
By Justin Friedland
All I want, when I step on the scale, is to get my weight, as accurately as possible. Don't need my body fat, don't need my bone density, don't want to have to put in batteries, don't need the day, date or my fortune, just my weight, within 1/2 a pound or so. Oh, and I have to be able to read the scale as well.
This product does just that. That's all it does, but it does it very well. Thank you, Salter.

Good overall, but some shortcuts in materials Jul 15, 2006
By Christine
Despite a few shortcomings in the the materials used, I think this is a good scale. I think it weighs perfectly and consistently, with a smooth dial that doesnt bounce around. You can tell the mechanical parts are high quality, but its a shame the manufacturer made some shortcuts in the materials that were chosen.
This is the same scale sold for much more at Restoration Hardware. Unfortunately, the box said "designed and engineered in England" and on a tiny sticker on the bottom, it said "made in China". Unfortunately, this is a trick a lot of manufacturers seem to be using these days.
The large domed dial cover is made from plastic, not glass. Secondly, the gray non-slip surface was a light gray, textured sticker that seemed thin and had a few light ripples. It makes an otherwise nice looking scale look a little bit cheap; something that could have been easily avoided with a heavier rubber surface. There were a couple of voids on the metal under the gray sticker, and indentations were are when you step on the scale. It does go away after a minute.
I wanted this style because its a formal, classic look. My decision to buy it was that it seemed modern glass scales would much more easily show water drops and dust. From a size perspective, the scale is also very large, which is great if you have a the space.

LOVE this scale!! Jul 10, 2009
By L. A. Mylott
"anthroaddict"
This scale is great! We have a digital scale in my house also and I would always be so frustrated with it because I could get on the scale get one number, step off and get on again a second later and get a completely different number. Our digital scale has all these fancy features like a body fat calculator etc. but it isn't helpful if you cannot get a consistent, accurate weight measurement. This scale however is extremely accurate, I consistently get the same number even when stepping on & off several times. It also looks great in my bathroom and is super easy to re-set if I ever have to move it around. You simply get it home, remove it from the box, set the dial to "0" and step on and off a few times to get it activated. It's so simple! It's also extremely durable. & I received it in two days with free shipping! I highly recommend this scale!

 my particular scale was defective Mar 19, 2007
By mauricev
Once I got the scale, I discovered there is a "key" on the bottom that must first be removed before the scale will operate. This didn't seem to be referenced in the directions.
Then I tried testing the scale with gym weights.
A 10 lb plate weighed 4 lbs.
A 15 lb dumbbell weighed 8 lbs.
A 20 lb dummbell weighed 15 lbs.
My own weight (based on recent doctor's scale) was off in the reverse direction by 25%.
The scale has been returned as defective.

Accurate and good looking scale Oct 15, 2008
By Mike G.
The scale arrived very quickly after we placed our order. It works and looks great with very visible numbers. It is more accurate than some of the digital scales we've had.
