Overview of the most accurate and reliable models
Author: Alla Velichko, Anastasia Popova
Few know how to choose the right scales, what to look for, which manufacturer to give preference to. In our ranking, the best models of floor scales for every taste and wallet, popular in 2017-2018.
Criteria for selection of floor scales
Type of
First you need to choose between electronic and mechanical scales. The first - more accurate, and therefore more popular, the second - less accurate, but cheap. Electronic scales can have many other functions besides measuring body weight, mechanical ones will just tell you about your weight. It is definitely not worth taking those models that have an error of more than 0.5 kg. These are mainly some mechanical scales. Over time, the use of the error will only increase.
Body material
The most popular materials today are glass and plastic. The most pleasant to the touch wooden scales, but the cost is higher. Models made of stone also attract with their “naturalness”, but they are heavy and expensive. Glass scales look more spectacular and more reliable than plastic models, but caring for them should be more thorough: many glass surfaces are easily soiled. Moreover, it is very easy to break glass scales, dropping on them even a regular cup. If you carefully treat these weights, they will last more than one year.
Functions
The choice of functions depends on your needs: there are both normal and diagnostic scales that allow you to find out the body mass index, the content of adipose and muscle tissue, water in the body, etc. Naturally, diagnostic scales will be only electronic.

But in this case, before weighing, you will have to wait a couple of minutes - the device is charging from the light, both the sun's rays and the lamp will do. But in addition you will never have to spend money on changing batteries. The accuracy of the scale is not bad - the error is not more than 100 g, even on a not very perfectly flat surface. The numbers on the LCD are large, the measurement result is clearly visible. The glass platform is strong enough, according to reviews it can withstand even small drops.

Weights are satisfied, they are always measured correctly - a discrepancy of no more than 100 g in comparison with other scales. For me, a big plus is their subtlety, they enter under the nightstand and do not get underfoot. |

Tanita HD-382
1 999
The lower limit for weighing Tanita scales is 2.5 kg, and according to reviews, even less. Therefore, you can weigh on them not only yourself, but also children, cats and even summer blanks in the country. The measurement result is stable, the device is not very capricious to the surface on which it is installed. A large display with bright blue backlight will help you see the weight without any problems even in a dark room. The readings go out only 8 seconds after leaving the platform, so you will definitely have time to see the cherished numbers. Only the not very convenient switching mechanism grieves you - first you need to gently tap a couple of times in the center of the scale.

The laconic appearance of the scales has its charm - against the background of the smooth black case, the bright red numbers of the readings, which appear during weighing as if from a void, are very clearly visible.The platform is glass and non-slip, although dust and footprints of bare feet stand out noticeably on it. A big plus weights - they can withstand loads up to 180 kg. Weigh clearly, the standard error is 100 g. There is an auto-shutdown function that helps save battery power - they need 3 pieces of AAA format to work.

Medisana 40461 PSD

Solid German scales - massive, stable, with a large dial and rubberized surface - made in retro style. The only negative is that they are heavy, weighing 3.6 kg. But at the same time, the scales are narrow, the size is 42.5x28.5 cm, and they will not take up much space in the room. The convex dial with a large contrast scale makes it easy to see the result. Scales withstand up to 150 kg, measuring step - 0.5 kg. To the flatness of the floor is not very picky, give a stable result even on not the most direct surface.

Inexpensive scales will be liked by children - here is a cheerful drawing from a popular cartoon, and an interesting scale of height and weight for boys and girls. The shock-resistant platform withstands up to 130 kg, there are 4 rubberized legs at the bottom so that the scales do not slide on the smooth floor. Measurement accuracy is not the best - 1 kg, but for constant monitoring of the dynamics of weight is quite acceptable. Below there is a wheel that will help set the arrow to exactly 0, if it gets lost in time.

Scales are simple, reliable and durable, the case does not bend, batteries are not needed. To me, their accuracy for daily weighing is enough for the eyes, everything is clear, well, and the price is the most pleasant. |
In our ranking of the best floor scales for the home were models of different types and price categories, which will make your choice as comfortable as possible. It is worth choosing either products of well-established global manufacturers (for example, Tefal, SUPRA), or brands that specialize exclusively in the production of scales: Tanita, Salter.The latter offers a 15-year warranty on all its products - isn’t it an indicator of excellent quality? Tanita also has excellent reviews from customers, but its products are in the middle and highest price category. Beurer bench scales are chosen by fans of German quality. There are decent models from other manufacturers.
