Customers are dissatisfied with the performance of the product.

The product isn't perfect, and the reading does vary quite a bit. It can be inconsistent, and results can fluctuate slightly during the day.

This is what I use to track my body fat percentage.ACCURACY: It's good for APPROXIMATE values of your body fat percentage. For best approximate estimation, test your body fat percentage right after you wake up, before you take a shower or bath, before you drink or eat anything, wearing just your underwear or nothing, make sure your hands are not sweaty, and try to hold the device the same way, everytime you take your body fat percentage.It's a well built device, doesn't feel cheap at all and battery life is amazing! I haven't had to change the battery since I got it which was a little over 2 years ago!It's easy to use, simple set up instructions once you turn it on and easy to understand owners manual.
Thank you for your feedback
