Buying Taylor 7506 Precision Tech Lithium-Battery Electronic Glass/Chrome Scale


So I never post product reviews. I couldn't be bothered 99% of the time as I generally expect products to work and will always give companies a second chance.

That being said I gave Taylor three chances in 6 months with this scale and its complete junk. Then I see that Consumer Reports made this their highest rated scale??? Wow...so I am kinda mad.

Here's my story. Bought this scale in the beginning of 2009, mostly for a holiday / new years resolution to lose weight. The scale came outta the box DOA. Okay, that happens. Look for a way to replace it (I didn't buy it on Amazon)...call customer service. Rude and intrusive and wanted me to pay to return it to them. Obnoxious. So I do it.

Next one comes....weights are all over the place. In 5 minute span I gained 17 pounds? Call customer service again. They tell me its most likely my technique with using the scale. So insulting. Bear using that one for about two weeks before getting totally frustrated and demotivated with my weight loss plan. Am I losing weight or not? Who knew with that thing. Put up a huge stink with customer service and got a free new one.

The last one lasted about five months. Weighed accurate for the most part but just died on me one day. Replaced the batteries. Nothing. Finally gave up on these guys and bought another brand.

If you believe that this is a good scale because some people at Taylor sent 5 perfect samples to Consumer Reports then believe it. I don't. Quality control and customer service are sorely lacking.Get more detail about Taylor 7506 Precision Tech Lithium-Battery Electronic Glass/Chrome Scale.
