good basic scale 
2008-03-01
Tanita scales as a group are much more accurate and reliable than the competitors brands, however they make few basic digitals scales. I chose this one because I wanted a no frills scale made by Tanita, not because it is solar. However the solar power source works fine, taking maybe 15 seconds after the light is turned on in the room to power up. The scale is sturdy, not flimsy plastic. The weight reading on this scale matches the one at the doctor's office and at the gym. If I step on and off repeatedly, I never get a variation of more than 0.5 lb. I specifically chose this scale because it does not have a memory of your weight (I prefer to keep that info to myself). Of course, if you want the memory feature you should choose a different model.

I've only had the scale for about one month, but so far it has worked great. I like the solar powered feature. It is placed in a dark bathroom but only takes a few seconds to powerup when the lights are turned on.
Great scale! 2007-09-14
Great scale! I keep it in the bathroom cabinet when not in use, and it works within a minute of exposure to light. It seems to be very accurate, and it is one of the few digital scales I saw that doesn't record your weight for the entire household to see, a definite plus in my opinion!
Perfect for skylit bathroom 2008-06-05
Trim in style, accurate, good price. Sits under a skylight in my bathroom, ever-charged. Perfect selection for me.
Meets expectation 2008-06-02
Read previous reviews before the purchase. Product works as well as everyone says. The only thing is from turning the light on in a dark room, the scale is not ready as fast as some suggests. But it's really not a big deal.
Good buy 2008-05-15
This scale is accurate and turns on very shortly after you turn on the lights in the bathroom.
Great scale 2008-05-06
I love this scale! It doesn't do anything but tell me how much I weigh, no fancy extras, but the price is right. It weighs me exactly the same as the professional balance scale at my fitness center. I like that there are no batteries, and it only takes seconds for light to register for an accurate reading. A good buy!
Great scale! 2008-04-25
Seems to be very accurate and consistent. Doesn't take a lot of light either. No batteries!!
