Best Body Fat Monitor Reviews 2018

EatSmart is a brand that seeks to provide people with the tools they need on their journey to weight loss, fitness, and overall health. They guarantee customer satisfaction on all products, including bathroom scales, kitchen scales, thermometers, and more.

Our featured product from EatSmart is the Precision Getfit Body Fat Scale. It’s a multifunctional, easy-to-use digital scale. In addition to highly accurate body weight measurement, this scale provides body fat, body water, muscle and bone mass percentages. This is much more than just a scale – it’s more like a personal fitness assistant that helps you keep track of your progress. It can store up to 8 user profiles, and it remembers and recognizes each user – no need for any input; all you have to do is step on the scale. When you first start using the scale, input key information including gender, height, age, and activity level. The scale then uses Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis (BIA) to calculate your body fitness. A low-level electrical pulse travels through the body’s fat, and the resistance helps the scale calculate body fat and more.

Key features of the Getfit Body Fat Scale include

• “Step-On” technology so you don’t have to tap the scale to turn it on
• Easy-to-read 3.5-inch backlit screen
• Touchscreen interface
• 4 AA batteries and easy-to-understand instruction manual included
• 400lbs capacity

Like all EatSmart products, the Getfit scale is backed by a 100% satisfaction guarantee.

Weight Gurus, a division of Greater Goods, makes digital body weight scales that also measure other important health metrics, including body fat, lean mass, and more. They’re designed to allow you to conveniently track changes in your weight and fitness over time. They also give back – all sales of Weight Gurus’ products benefit the brand’s charity partner, Love 146.

Our featured scale measures 6 key metrics in addition to weight – BMI, body fat, muscle mass, hydration, and bone density. It uses 4 precise weighing sensors for precise readings. To make tracking your progress simple, the scale links up with your smartphone via the free Weight Gurus app. When you step on the scale, it gives you a scannable QR code, which transfers your metrics to the app. And the Weight Gurus app is also optimized for use with major fitness trackers, including Fitbit, Google Fit, and Apple’s health app. Some users report feeling frustration with how quickly the code disappears, though – you have to be quick to scan it. But overall, the features of this body fat scale and the smartphone integration make it a good choice for many.

And this scale, like all Weight Gurus scales, is backed by top-notch customer service, a satisfaction guarantee, and a 2-year warranty.

• Weight Gurus app compatible with major fitness tracker brands
• Accurate to .01lbs
• Automatically detects up to 8 different users
• Available in black or clear
• Tempered glass weighing surface
• 400lbs capacity

The Weight Gurus scale is a good choice for those who want smartphone monitoring but don’t want to drop a ton of cash on a Bluetooth or Wi-Fi enabled scale.
