Types Of Digital Bathroom Scales

By Luke Jefferson

Today with all the varieties and features of digital scales, it is no wonder that many people are trading in their old mechanical scales for the modern digital variety. This is no surprise since the digital scales have so many different functions. There are nonetheless those who say that they have no use for all the extra functions, but it is still a good investment. It is also nice to have these new functions since you never know if you'll want or need them down the line.

So the question that most people ask is what is the difference between the types of digital bathroom scales out there, and the answer is that there are quite a few, but you're going to find that the higher end scales have a few more features than the lower end scales. By this logic one would say that the scale needs to meet your needs and that should be the determining factor in which one you purchase.

So without further delay, here are a few bathroom scales that you can choose among. Once you read over these descriptions you can determine whether you need a high end one or a low end one. Just remember that the final decision is totally up to you.

One model is the Taylor 7330 Digital Lithium Bathroom Scale. This is basically a great scale with a good lithium battery, which lasts for around two years or longer. This scale starts up right away, has a vinyl mat and a weight reading capacity of 350 pounds. You can choose between weights given in pounds and kilograms. This scale will cost you around $30 and is therefore an affordable model.

The next scale, the Taylor 7523, is a more attractive one running around fifty dollars. It is made out of tempered glass. This model is a step above the previous one and has an accurate reading up to 400 pounds. It also has another nice feature which is the 1.5 inch LCD readout. Plus, for times when you would rather not turn on the bathroom light, it also has a blue backlight.

Finally, there is the Summit S6600 bathroom scale. This digital scale comes with an AC adapter, can differentiate between two people that have different weights and is able to provide accurate readings up to 660 pounds. It is very durable and is also water resistant. This scale can be put in a fixed spot or taken along since it is portable. The price of this model runs around $200, but it can be used by a lot of people.

It is obvious that the differences between low and middle end scales are few. However, once you enter the high end range, you will receive countless features and high quality. One main difference between the levels of scales is that the high end models also can accurately read higher amounts of weight, something that needs to be seriously taken into consideration by those who may need that. In the end, the decision is yours and you should at least try to make the right choice.
