Default Accurate Scales

Hey everyone, wondering if anyone would have any recommendations for a good, accurate, and reasonably priced bathroom scale. I have one of the digital ones that does the body fat too that I bought several years ago, but it is horribly inaccurate/inconsistent, and because it typically weighs me 5-8 lbs heavier than my Dr's scale and the one at the gym, I am looking to ditch it (admittedly, if it were the other way around I might have a different attitude ). I appreciate any suggestions, and am really looking to spend under $40 (but could go higher for something fabulous).

Thanks!

Lisa

I think you can get a WW scale for around $20 on Amazon.com (or Costco, if you belong to one).

It doesn't do anything fancy, just weighs you, but I have a scale like you described above, and I hardly use the other features.

I followed some advice on this website recently and bought the EatSmart digital scale from Amazon.com. I have been really happy with it--it's only $28.95 and is very accurate and consistent. I was leery of the glass, but put it in a place where it won't get kicked by accident.

I have a scale made by Taylor that I bought from Target for under $30. It was on sale and does does body fat, water weight, etc on it, but I rarely use that. I prefer the digital to analog because I can see tenths and some days that's worth it.
