    Mordeczki, advise you to buy the exact bathroom scale. I bought two scales and every time I weigh it shows what I want. There is a difference of 3 kg after 5 minutes. They were supposed to be very accurate and they turn out to be bottom. I don't know what to buy now to make it good and accurate.

    How do I understand digital scales?
    1. You don't eat anything along the way? You're not drinking? The same place? Sometimes the curved floor skews the measurements.
    2. I use xiaomi and so far it shows me the same thing during several measurements :P
    3. Good and accurate - you can buy medical scales. Admittedly, it takes up some space, but when properly leveled, it does the job.

    Find a place for it with a perfectly even surface and test it.

    The point is that it is placed on an even surface and it indicates what it wants. In 5 minutes you can gain 3 kg or lose weight xd :D

    It depends what weight it is. In some of the cheapest ones, the strain gauge has only one or two legs, and the way and place of standing on the scale has a big impact on the measurement. The very quality of the sensor assembly is also important.

    I have an old 50 g Soehnle scale. It has one strain gauge exactly in the middle and it doesn't matter if I stand symmetrically or completely to the side, the scale shows the same result. There is a handwritten number on the extensometer, so it can be assumed that the balance was factory calibrated. The sensitivity and reliability of this scale may be related to its price, it was about 100 EUR.

    I have a quinola from the supermarket J .... When I stand on one leg, I weigh more than if I stand on both legs :crazyeyes:
    Should it be the other way around? :lol:

    I have a Zelmer scale, but the model is no longer produced. It has 4 sensors. I used to check it with barbell loads and the weight was correct, so it shows rather correct values. Unfortunately, it also has such a problem that in order for the measurement to be relatively repeatable, it must be exactly in the same place. Then the scale shows exactly the same. It's best to set some landmarks on the floor and weigh yourself in the same place.

    So I wrote - I recommend xiaomi - it works and shows the same result in the case of several consecutive measurements :)

    I bought a HUAWEI AH100. When stepping on the scale without acrobatics, the repeatability of the measurement is 100%, also standing asymmetrically with one foot.
    I paid for the unnecessary gadgets, but of all the tested in the store (including Chinese, Bosch, AEG), only this one worked confidently.
