Cheap and fake April 19, 2008 3 out of 4 found this review helpful
It's a cheap gadget. You have to enter your weight, height, age and sex. You then have to hold the sensors and it will 'detect' if you are holding it and start the 'measurement'. It does actually detect a person making contact with it - if you try and do it with gloves on, it won't work. It does this by passing a small electric current through your hands and detects the circuit you make - very simple, nothing fancy. However, I don't think that it really measures your body fat. I used it with both thumbs, the thumb and forefinger of one hand and also with my toes. The reading was the same each time. If you adjust the 'weight value' that you enter into the machine, and then do the test again - lo and behold it gives you a lower reading. Tell it that you're female instead of male and it gives you a completely different reading. I had my info programmed in and my wife used it - guess what? She got the same reading as me. My guess is that it takes the info you enter and has a pre-programmed look-up table inside to give you a reading based 99% on that and 1% on the actual measurement.
Wow - I can't believe I wrote so much about a 10 quid gadget - but if it saves you 10 quid then good. Don't waste your money.
Everything except BMI April 15, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
It may just be me, but i seemed to be able to get everything else working, the closk, alarm etc... except the BMI measurement, so i would say its worth spending a little more money on a better product.
