What Scale Do You Use?

My Sub-Big-Box-Store-Quality Scale is crapping out on me so it's time to get a new one. There are just so many options out there that I don't know where to begin. So I figured I'd turn to my fellow mtbnjers. What kind of scale do you have? Do you like it? Is it accurate?

I'm looking for something sub $100, preferably sub $75. That will give me weight, % body fat, % water. I track my progress in an excel sheet so I don't need anything with memory. I also don't want something that's going to break as soon as the 90 day warranty is up.

That body fat thing drives me crazy, it varies too much


Yes, the variations are due to hydration levels & such. That's why it's recommended you weigh yourself 1st thing in the morning after using the restroom and before eating/drinking anything. At the very least weighing yourself at the same time of day.
