I am happy with this product except for one feature. I wish it had software to download and track progress.
Inaccurate and Pointless 
2008-06-29
Tried one of these out at a health fair. The guy said it has a 4-5% margin of error...that is a lot IMO. There are a lot of factors (e.g. recent eating activity, recent exercise, skin temperature, air temperature, hydration level) that can impede the electric currents of these kinds of devices, so I wouldn't be surprised if the margin of error were even larger. But that didn't even matter because it wouldn't give me a measurement, it kept giving me an error. The guy said it usually occurs if you are too lean. So apparently it only works if you are w/in a certain body fat % range, and even then it's essentially just giving you a 10% range.
You are better off getting a caliper (cheaper and 1% margin of error).
Great product, great tansaction, fast and easy

Omron Body fat analyzer 2008-06-25
Use this for my personal training clients.
Very easy, just follow directions.
Great to document starting point and set goals.
Fat Monitor 2008-05-21
Thought it was a great price so I bought 2 so when one disappears I'll have the second. Keeping track of Body Fat Makes much more sense than BMI.
I run, swim and lift on a regular basis with 18% BF at 50 but am rated as borderline obese. Thought it be good to motivate coworkers. IT people tend to get the video spread.
Excelente, muy preciso y de fácil manejo. 2008-07-20
Es un medidor muy preciso y confiable, a diferencia de otros que he usado este tiene la caracteristica para personas comunes y deportistas profesionales, su tamaño y diseño hace muy fácil su manejo y cuidado.
Great Value! 2008-07-14
This body fast analyzer is priced right, and will give you a consistent reading. As a Personal Trainer, I've found this to be a good tool to use. While arguements can be made concerning the overall accuracy of bioelectrical impedence for calculating body fat, the truth is none of the body fat tests are absolutely accurate.
excellent brand 2008-07-12
I have opportunity to compare with other brands to measure % body fat and always I have the same results with "Omron HBF-306C Fat Loss Monitor" than others.
I think this is an excellent way to check and to control at home or professionaly.I like it.
Fat Loss Monitor != Bodyfat Monitor 
2008-07-10
This fat loss monitor is completely inaccurate when the number is taken at face value. The *only* value of this product is to track the change in bodyfat over time if and only if you ensure the measurements are taken under the same physiological conditions, under the same environmental conditions, and your body composition is a standard deviation or two from average.
This means always measure before working out, when your skin is dry, your heartrate is at resting, and while holding it properly (directly out in front of you with the arms fully extended). Write down the number, test yourself again in six weeks, and use the change in the number to determine your progress.
Totally Worthless 2008-07-03
This product is inconsistent. I can take five different readings in a row and receive five widely ranging different results. Save your money and look up the Navy body fat formula instead.
