Setup is easy and specifics are detailed in the included Instruction Manual. Select desired measurement unit – either pounds or kilograms by flicking the switch near the battery compartment, and place the scale on a level, firm surface. Stand on the scale. The result is displayed boldly so no squinting or body contortions are necessary to make out the numbers. I like this scale because it is more accurate than my old one, which finally stopped working. It is attractive. At first I was afraid I would trip over it because it is mostly glass, but the metal at the ends seems to prevent that.

Easy to maintain, wipe the glass surface using mild soap on a damp cloth. Do not submerge or expose to excessive moisture. In an effort to create consistency I try to weigh once a week, at the same time of day while wearing the same or similar clothing. Modestly priced, this scale performs its sole task well -- assisting in weight management. And, as an added bonus, it looks striking in the bathroom or work-out room.

I was pleasantly surprised when I received them. The look of them is very sleek and modern. They are glass with silver outlined edges. The scale is very accurate in weighs. It allows you to choose either kilograms or pounds on the bottom next to the battery compartment. The numbers on the scale are large and easy to read. It will also flash the numbers at you when it has an accurate reading on your weight. . I have to admit i was a little concerned when i seen that the top was made of glass. When I got it opened my worries quickly disappeared as the glass is very thick and sturdy. The design actually matches very nicely with the decor in my bathroom. I would definitely recommend this scale to anyone in the market for one.
