Solely measuring one's weight can be very deceiving. One can fluctuate ~10 lbs simply in water weight.

The Verge's @KatieBoehret has a good overview on the product.

It's also worth mentioning that Withings makes really quality hardware. I've used one of the original scales daily for the last 4 years and it's only dropped WiFi once. That's more than I can say for many other consumer devices.

I am not sure if I ha e this exact one, but the body fat in mine is directional at best.
I once checked myself in the morning and then had a proper hydrostatic rest later that day.
26% withings, 17% tank.
That said, I also have a Skulpt and its numbers are more consistent with my Withings.
End of the day you just want it going down, right :)

How accurate is it at measuring composition? Would be interested in seeing a comparison to something like a dexascan.
With an at home scale like this, I think consistency of measure is probably more important than accuracy. More useful to know if you're moving in the right direction than exact numbers.

Interesting claims around Pulse Wave Velocity. http://media-cdn.withings.com/pa...
