Rating of the best floor scales for 2022

Floor type scales are used to track the dynamics of its own weight and assess the correct nutrition. At home, structures are also used to weigh children, large items, and animals. Such a device will be appreciated by travelers who know firsthand how airlines treat oversized and heavy luggage. Scales for the home are often bought by the fair sex, who are used to monitoring their physical condition from an early age.

What are

Electronic

The main criterion for the selection of such devices is the accuracy indicator. And electronic scales meet all the necessary requirements of the buyer. In addition to the unusual appearance, there is a separate category of products on the market, which is equipped with a number of auxiliary functions. It is this feature that distinguishes electronic products from their mechanical counterparts.

Popular models that belong to the category of high-tech (medical) may have the following functionality:

1. Determination of the proportion of bone tissue.
2. Calculation of BMI (body mass index).
3. Identification of the proportion of water.
4. Measurement of air temperature.
5. Determination of the fat component.

It should be noted that expensive models are equipped with a function that allows you to store data and analyze it for each family member. Through a simple application, the device will independently recognize people and record the slightest changes. The accuracy of the best devices is high, and the error rarely reaches the mark of 100 g.

Also, experts advise paying special attention to models that are able to conduct a comprehensive analysis based on the data obtained and recommend the optimal amount of calories consumed during the day, as well as make a diet.

Mechanical

Easy to use and, at the same time, affordable devices. They are in high demand due to the indicator of permissible load and reliability. Over time, the spring that underlies the design will gradually stretch, which will lead to an increase in the error coefficient. However, if a person needs to know only the approximate parameters of something, then this option is considered the most profitable and, at the same time, inexpensive. They are characterized by maintainability, unlike electronic counterparts.

How to choose

Outdoor products belong to the category of household appliances, which is in great demand among modern consumers. In order not to make common mistakes when choosing a fixture, you should decide in advance on the selection criteria. Goal setting will also play an important role. It should be noted that the same scales can be used for children and adults.

For a newborn child (up to six months), it is recommended to use special children's products (horizontal type), which are equipped with all, without exception, medical institutions. It is noted that they have a minimum error rate.

Option	Description
Accuracy of measurements	For those who pay special attention to their own weight, the slightest error can have adverse consequences. In this case, preference should be given to electronic devices. Children's models and expensive accessories will minimize the risk of error.Mechanical products "lie" by 200-400 g, which is considered an acceptable indicator if the indicator is measured every few days. The cheapest scales have an error of 1 kg.
Maximum load	The criterion is important when large people will use the product. Ordinary fixtures can break due to significant stress, resulting in injury. Average units are able to withstand a 160-kilogram person (electric) and 200 kg mechanical. In most cases, these indicators are more than enough. There is a separate category of products on the market, which is designed for a mass of 300 kg.
Materials used	Plastic products are in the greatest demand due to the budget price and the compact dimensions of the model itself. Manufacturers focus on the design and colors of household appliances, so the choice can be complicated. A wide range will not allow you to decide on your favorite models quickly. The steel platform will look stylish and modern. But it is unpleasant to become barefoot on a metal surface (otherwise the sensor will not work). Able to amaze with a variety of glass structures. However, such material should be handled with extreme care. Steam makes the surface slippery, so you should not use them in the bathroom. The rubberized backing will not be superfluous. Exotic models deserve special attention. A striking example is wood or stone inserts. They are expensive, but they look amazing.
Manual adjustment Power (for electronic devices)	Structures in most cases should stand on a completely flat surface.Ideal floors in the house are difficult to meet, so popular models are equipped with a level adjustment function. Otherwise, you will have to spend a lot of time in order to find a flat surface in the room. The consumption of conventional structures is minimal. Batteries can last for several months of intensive use. However, diagnostic devices that are able to determine the proportion of bone in a person will require regular battery replacement, namely once a week.

Additional features

In a detailed review of electronic products, you should pay attention to the many additional features that mechanical products do not have. However, each of the declared functions, which is so necessary in everyday life, according to most buyers, will be reflected in the cost of the product. Are some programs really necessary? It may not be worth overpaying for something that is not absolutely necessary.

High-tech diagnostic devices can have the following functionality:

1. As auxiliary functions, the manufacturer may provide a miniature printer or stadiometer.
2. The system, by means of a sound signal, can determine the percentage of muscles, fat, fluids and bones. A weak discharge will not harm the body, but it will allow you to get accurate data. Such functionality will be appreciated by professional athletes, parents of babies, pregnant women and people with cardioregulators.
3. Calculation of BMI with the subsequent saving of the received data.

High-tech innovations can work with a wireless control unit. Thus, it will be possible to control the modes and not lean towards them every time.

What is the best product to buy?

1. For health, sports and medical institutions, it is better to buy electronic units with an extensive memory unit. They can be equipped not only with a built-in stadiometer, but also with a small printer. It should be noted that the presence of a solid platform is mandatory, and it is made of hygienic, environmentally friendly and safe materials. Among them, special attention deserves metal and glass, which are easy to care for.
2. For a large family in which they prefer to check the indicators every day, you will need an electronic device with a large memory. The permissible error will be 0.5 kg. The body must be made of metal or tempered glass. The automatic shutdown function and the charge indicator will not be superfluous.
3. Mechanical structures are suitable for home use if the measurement accuracy will not play a special role. An excellent choice for those whose figure is 140 kg or more. If the indicator significantly exceeds the indicated mark, then the device must be equipped with a high-strength base, preferably a metal one.
4. For those who continuously monitor any fluctuations in their own weight, a high-tech diagnostic tool is required. In addition to the total body weight, the device will determine a number of other indicators that will not be superfluous. As a matter of fact, this device can run on battery power.

Conclusion

In the process of choosing floor structures, several aspects must be taken into account, including the functionality and type of device. Reviews are also an important factor. Less efficient are mechanical scales, which position themselves as inexpensive and, at the same time, reliable designs. Their measurement accuracy leaves much to be desired. To control the weight and health of each of the family members, it is better to use electronic designs. The product has an error of only 100 g. Battery consumption is low due to the fact that they automatically turn off after the next use.

If the buyer has excess weight, preference should be given to models designed for a load of 150 kg or more. It is not necessary that the selected product be all-metal, because manufacturers make structures from high-strength tempered glass, which endures not only significant loads, but also mechanical stress.If the user is also interested in other vital signs, then special attention should be paid to more expensive and multifunctional diagnostic scales. They are able to calculate not only BMI, but also muscle, bone and fat mass.

Some popular models can independently calculate diets and workouts, however, this will require an active connection to a smartphone.
