This bestselling smart scale tracks way more than weight, and it's down to $22

view original post

A good scale can help you keep tabs on your weight, whether you’re trying to lose, gain or maintain. But that single number doesn’t tell the whole story. A smart scale can help distinguish between muscle and fat, giving you a rundown on your body composition. The hugely popular Renpho Smart Digital Bathroom Scale is an Amazon bestseller that tracks your stats like a pro, and it’s just $22, down from $35, when you apply the on-page coupon.

Why is this a good deal? 💰

You’re saving $13, but even at full price, this scale is way more affordable than other devices that keep tabs on your health, like a Fitbit, Apple Watch or even a Fitbit Scale. Our price trackers show that it hasn’t dropped any lower than this in the past year.

Why do I need this? 🤔

With a sleek profile — it’s almost as thin as most laptops — the Renpho Smart Digital Bathroom Scale has a backlit screen that’s handy for those late-night or early-morning weigh-ins. No need to tap with your foot and wait for it to calibrate: Simply step on it and get immediate results.

The scale will give you your weight, but there will be a ton more information waiting for you in the connected smartphone app, like BMI and body fat percentage. It syncs with iPhones, Android smartphones, Fitbit, Apple Health, Samsung Health and Google Fit via Bluetooth, so you can keep track of all your fitness goals in the spot you like best.

Meanwhile, it has an auto-off feature to extend battery life and comes with three AAA batteries pre-installed. Made of tempered glass with a roomy platform, it’s a chic addition to the bathroom.

“The scale has brought my body awareness to an unprecedented level,” another fan wrote. “I have been effortlessly tracking my body composition for the past six months every week. I open the app, step on the scale, and my entire body condition ‘uploads’ to my phone… It is incredibly accurate and very sensitive to my diet. I can eat junk food for a day or two and the scale/app can see it.”

One shopper even said it rivals much pricier alternatives: “I was fully prepared to purchase a super-expensive high-quality scale. I did tons of research, looked on multiple sites, and came across this item. The reviews are phenomenal, and I was skeptical because I thought there was no way such a well-priced item could produce the quality that was being described. Finding this scale was like finding a diamond in the rough!”

Cons 👎

One shopper had a suggestion to ensure that you use this scale to its full potential: “The app is super easy to use and cute,” gushed this reviewer. “You do need to make sure it’s on a flat surface and that your feet are positioned on all four metal dots (I am a size women’s 6 and my feet can reach, but it probably won’t work for anyone under maybe a 4).”

This shopper took issue with the display: “I wish the text was green or something. Having it be red on black doesn’t make it pop out so much.” (Check out an alternative below!)

If you want to get a more accurate picture of how your body is changing, this smart measuring tape is a clever add-on.
