So, I need some scales, preferably digital for extra accuracy. I've been relying on my Wii fit to weigh myself but think that's probably quite unreliable and won't measure half pound gains/losses.

Willing to spend £10-20 fish.

Thanks!

I've had 2 sets of salter digital scales and I think they're excellent, the first set was my favourite they told you your bmi, body fat etc as well as weight but dropped a heavy glass bottle on them and they sadly shattered into a thousand pieces. Aldi had them in for 12.99 last week I think. The second set came from either tesco or sainsburys and only do weight but work really well, always get consistent readings off them, they were around £15 I think.

Excellent...thanks! I put some salter ones on my Amazon wish list yesterday, so maybe I'll go for them!

Salter are great, bought mine a year ago and they've been fantastic.

That said, the other week I almost hurled them into the bin because they were giving different readings every 5 minutes... only to realise that I hadn't calibrated properly or put the little carpet feet on . Standing on a hard floor, they're perfect.

Just to be devils advocate, I always found nipping to boots and putting 50p in the machine and weighing myself was better, definitely accurate and stopped me from jumping on the scales everyday and becoming obsessed with it. Just a thought, might be entirely irrelevant for you good luck xxx

Thanks, always good to throw a new idea out there. I hardly ever go into town as it's hard with the kids and parking costs a fortune! If I worked in a town, this would be a great idea though!

I have a weight watchers scale and it has a higher quality than most previous ones I have used. I would highly recommend, this types.

The weight watchers ones are good. They give weight to the half pound too they were £18 from argos and look quite attractive in the bathroom too as they are glass
