My scale died on me

[Alex Cruz]

So I went to weigh in and my scale doesnt work.. Its less than a yr old... So sad... Well, since I will have to buy a new one, I was wondering what suggestions you had.

Hi Alex!

Here's the one I use.

I paid $27.00... and worth EVERY cent!
Looks like it's now available for $24.00.

Remember to use it on a flat solid surface (not carpet or rug).

Alex, is your scale digital?  Be sure it's not just the battery before you buy another one.  I'm sure you've checked that, but remember this is coming from a blonde! lol    I love my scales because it shows the weigh in .2 increments.  You can tell even if you've lost just a little bit.

Thanks Tony... 

Hi Alex!

I assumed this... But you know what they say about assuming!

Like Maddysmom says, if your scale is digital, try replacing the battery BEFORE replacing the entire scale.

I use this one and love it. Had it for years. I don’t use any of the fancy features except the weight, but it’s always dead on perfectly accurate.

lol.. I promise I checked the battery.. No one wants to tell, but I think one of the smaller kids may have broken it.. I even had hubby try to fix it...

Tony, I like what I read on the scale you have..

Jan & F2S, what type of scale do you have?

Alex mine is a Weight Watcher's digital scale.  I have had it for several years, but I did have to spend more at the time to get one that would weigh me.  I think mine goes up to like 400 lbs.  Can't remember the actual cost of the scale itself, but with shipping and everything, I paid $68.
