    Yup, they comment that only an autopsy is 100% accurate.

    All I wanted was for a few studies from a Univ or equivalent that said, "yup not perfect, but close enough for monitoring for a home user" and "someone who wants to do X would find such and such scale better because it does Y."

    You've missed the fact that the comparison chart for the models I was considering was not on the web site (or any place else that I could find on the internet) and Tanita had to email me an excel file.

    Still, you chose to make that your first post?

    I'm going off for a good laugh now.

    Ok, now it is even funnier because we do all look crazy. Who will tell us we have too much estrogen now?

    And I was considering one of those scales....time to look at Omron. Sadie- thanks for exposing the abhorrent customer service with this company! If there is one thing that will keep me as a customer, it is service - a company that will answer my questions and when things go wrong, go out of their way to make it right.

    If you head two people talking at the bus stop would you have butted in and said the things you have here to their faces?

    and I quote Geez Sadie...please tell me you're single. No one in their right mind would have married you...and please tell me you haven't procreated.

    You should all get a life. It's a bathroom scale for the love of God.


    Well? are you that rude in real life or only when no one knows who you are? Good grief what a way to introduce yourself to people.

    Aw, you guys (et al).

    I went off to the groomers semi-puzzled and laughing about this, but now, well now . . .

    Shucks and thanks.

    Looks like she deleted all her posts, packed up and left.....

    What did she expect, fan fare and flowers, if she was going to come on to the board and act like that with her very first post....

    Posts written in that style are definitely from a man.

    Maybe he, or his collective 'bros' finally figured out that this just might show up in a search for Tanita scales

    And now those offending posts are gone (thanks), and none of this makes any sense any more and we all DO sound paranoid.

    Maybe his boss at Tanita spied what he was doing online at work and busted him.
