Durability, serviceability, and manufacturer support matter for long-term performance.
-
Do bathroom scales accurately measure body fat?
Body composition scales estimate fat, muscle, and water using bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA). Absolute accuracy varies with hydration, recent activity, temperature, and the device's prediction equations. These devices are useful for tracking trends over time when testing conditions are kept consistent. Clinical methods such as DEXA provide more precise measurements of body fat. Treat consumer BIA outputs as informative trends rather than definitive clinical values.
