I had a Taylor scale for like a day this past week, I bought it at Target and it weighed me 3 different weights each within minutes of each other. I made sure it was on a flat surface and everything and it didn't work worth a lick. I returned for a WW Conair scale and that seems to be workin' well but I still love my old-school dial monster-scale I have from college! They are side by side now, working in tandem, lol.

We have a Taylor from Sam's, but it annoys me. Sometimes it will weigh me exactly the same several times in a row, but other times it has done things like add 1 1/2 lbs when all I did was eat a can of tuna (about five minutes ago) or tell me I gained 8 lbs. by using the bathroom and taking my clothes off.

I have to WW Conair one too! I've had it for about 6 months and it's been consistent, accurate and reliable.
I tried several models of the Taylor and have found them to be extremely inconsistent and they usually break on me after 3 months or so-- I am constantly moving my scale because my bathroom is a toilet and a shower baisically crammed into a closet--- so no floor space to keep a scale permanently.
I like the WW one, but I am considering upgrading to a Tanita one after all the good things I've heard about them.
