Where To Buy AccuMeasure Fattrack Pro Digital Body Fat Tester


The display graphics look like it came from a 1970's handheld video game and makes it difficult to read for some people.

The overall quality was ok, made of plastic and feels very lightweight/delicate like it could easily break. Personally don't think it's worth the price it's being sold for, a price of $20-$30 would be more reasonable in my opinion.

Overall the item appeared to work ok (as it should), just didn't care for the hard to read display graphics and think the price could be more realistic to what you actually get (quality). The case and software is a pleasant added bonus, still doesn't raise the value to the retail price it's being sold at.Get more detail about AccuMeasure Fattrack Pro Digital Body Fat Tester.

Taylor 7530 Glass Scale, Back Painted in Silver


This is a very nice looking unit and worked well for close to a year. I stepped on one day and got nothing so I bought 2 new batteries (CR2032). From then on all I can get are very low readings such as 8.6 lbs. I followed the unit directions stating to step on, then off, then back on to reset the unit any time the unit has been moved. I then thought maybe it had changed to kg, even though that would still be too low. It has a button on the back to switch, that wasn't it. Searching the internet I see I am not alone.

[...]

I tried the take batteries out, stand on for 7 seconds, reinstall batteries method described in the link. This actually did result in one improvement! Instead of 8.6 lbs I now get 1x8.6 lbs. The 1st digit has now appeared but the 2nd digit is completely blank. So possibly the calibration issue is fixed, but now there is an LCD display issue with the 2nd digit. aargh!

Taylor has a lifetime warranty...if you want to find or buy a box for it, pack it up, go to the post office line and pay to ship it to New Mexico. For the price-point of buying a new, DIFFERENT brand (trying Heath Meter this time), its not worth the hassle for me. I am very disappointed b/c I did really like the styling and very low profile. It allowed the toilet door to swing over the unit so it could be placed in the toilet room.

EDIT: Well, I guess all it took is to take the time to post a review of this product to get it to work! Here is what I did (per instructions found on the web). Take batteries out, stand on scale for 7 seconds, get off, put batteries back in, step back on and if display shows anything step right back off, then step back on to weigh myself. As I mentioned above this seemed to work except that the 2nd digit was now blank. I kept walking by over the next hour or so and stepping on it. Amazingly at some point the middle digit magically reappeared! I don't know what happened. I changed the battery in this thing months ago and have had bad too low readouts ever since. I only tried the 7 sec method the day I wrote this review. The frustration is what drove me to write the review. Bottom line...crazy as it sounds it is worth a try...the scale is still working fine 9 days later.Get more detail about Taylor 7530 Glass Scale, Back Painted in Silver.

Lil Critters Vita Worms, Dietary Supplements For Kids - 30 Ea This instant


My usual problem with gummy vitamins is if you compare them to the hard tablets, they usually have a lot less actual vitamin content. I compared the RDA % in these and they are pretty close to tablets. The tablets are still a bit higher in a few things, but since it's a struggle to get my kid to eat the tablets, I'll compromise on a few percentage points. She really likes these, like she reminds me when I forget. Score! Get more detail about Lil Critters Vita Worms, Dietary Supplements For Kids - 30 Ea.

AlcoMate AL-6000 Breathalyzer Immediately


I bought this recently, and always had problems keeping the batteries in. I had to hold the cap on the whole time for it not to turn off. The sensor also lasted much less than 500 tests. I have had the monitor about 6 months and used it less than 100 times, and now it wonk work until I replace the sensor. It was a lot of money for poor quality, but it did seem to measure alcohol level consistentlyGet more detail about AlcoMate AL-6000 Breathalyzer.

Samsung Healthy Living BSP-4007 Premium Deluxe Thinline See-Thru Flat Screen Blood Pressure Monitor with Irregular Heartbeat Detector Get it now!


Aug 02, 2009 at apx 10:33 am pdt

I had to return the first unit because neither of the supplied cuffs (small, to 12" and large) would inflate. The replacement unit inflated both cuffs correctly.

Our family has been using and storing readings in the unit for several weeks now; but I had an interesting experience with the unit yesterday.

We had a power outage yesterday that lasted about 14 hours. The unit was on our kitchen table with the A/C adapter plugged into it and its batteries were installed.

When the power went out, all the stored readings in the unit along with current date and time were lost. What is the purpose of having batteries installed in the unit if the data is lost when the power goes out?

Who ever designed the electronics in this unit was not thinking!

I believe there is a workaround:

First, don't leave the A/C adapter plugged into the unit. Only plug in the A/C adapter, with its power "on," when you're gonna used the unit. After you're done with the reading, remove the A/C adapter. With this workaround, the batteries should keep the data stored.

Next, connect the unit to your computer to download the readings weekly. This way, if there is a loss of data, it will only be for a few days.

I've enjoyed using the unit....it's very comfortable to use and the pressure on the arm during the readings is not unpleasant. Also, the readings appear to be consistent with my readings from two other sources: a Samsung wrist blood pressure device I use at work and the blood pressure machine at my local Walmart pharmacy.

If Samsung has resolved the loss of data problem in another model, then I would recommend that you buy that model.

3M Littmann 4100WS Electronic Stethoscope, Black Order Now


I've had the 4100ws for about a year, and am very pleased with it. The sound quality is very good, and it eliminates some (but not all) background noise. I have found it to be an outstanding teaching tool. The recording function is very easy to use, and the IR transfer works well. IR transfer to a desktop works only on windows XP at this point, which is frustrating for us mac users. You will need access to an XP machine to pull the recorded clips off. I often use the clips in presentations. This works very well, but you need to know that regular computer speakers won't be adequate. On normal speakers, the clips won't sound much like the murmur you are trying to present. I paired mine with a Bose sound dock, and the murmurs sound quite real when played on that. This is a GREAT way to teach med students, nurses, RTs, etc.... when you come across infrequent auscultation findings, you can record them and later play them for your colleagues so that everyone can gain some experience from the unusual presentation. I also love the 'slow play' feature, that lets me slow the playback down to 1/2 speed, to make murmurs easier to evaluate for students. My only complaint is that I can't transfer recorded clips directly to my mac.Get more detail about 3M Littmann 4100WS Electronic Stethoscope, Black.

New Balance VIA Pedometer with Panic Alarm Right now


I bought one of these, and when I got it out of the box I found that two of the four buttons didn't work. It counted steps fine, but I couldn't clear the count between workouts. I exchanged that unit for one that did work right out of the box and for exactly 4 days after that. Then ALL the buttons stopped working and it stopped counting steps. I wasn't at all hard on it, I was just using to keep track of my workouts on mini elliptical machine. This thing is a total piece of junk, don't waste your money.Get more detail about New Balance VIA Pedometer with Panic Alarm.

Lowest Price Tanita KP 104-200 Digital Scale, Black


I originally bought this scale for monitoring the weight gains of hatchling geckos (inside plastic cups, not touching the scale), but when I started dieting this little scale kept finding its way into the kitchen and my purse. Though it won't go over 7oz, I can just weigh 2 halves of a baked potato at a time, etc, and most single serving things aren't/shouldn't be that heavy anyway. I've had it for almost a year and it really is wonderful, little, and accurate. My only wish is that it would have an automatic off after being idle for a while, I killed a battery once that way when I closed its cover and put it away.Get more detail about Tanita KP 104-200 Digital Scale, Black.

Low Price New Balance N5 Max Heart Rate Monitor (Graphite)


This is a good-looking watch unlike others. The manual is lacking in teaching you how to use a heart monitor, but you can get the general information from the Internet or even download instruction manual of other brands to learn how to use a heart monitor.

At first I failed to get the heart beat to show up, but after recycled all the modes and back to Heart monitor mode and waiting for the blinking dots, the number showed up. Get more detail about New Balance N5 Max Heart Rate Monitor (Graphite).
