Garmin Index S2, Smart Scale with Wireless Connectivity, Measure Body Fat, Muscle, Bone Mass, Body Water% and More, White (010-02294-03)

This scale is awesome! It's very accurate and worth the money. The Garmin Connect App lets you customize what you want to see and you can have multiple users, but they each need their own connect account. We had a Fitbit Aria before and this is so much better! My only complaint is that sometimes you have to tap it hard with your foot to get it to "turn on." It could be that I haven't found the sweet spot yet. It doesn't come on by just standing on it. Aside from that I absolutely love this scale! It syncs quickly and hasn't had any issues. I highly recommend this! It does sync with Apple Health.

It’s expensive. But it is incredibly convenient to not have to remember weight over time and to be able to look at graphs. The display is extremely easy to read. It automatically connects to wifi and makes your data available in your account and on the app. Garmin has an excellent privacy policy for your data. Some of the other manufacturers have horrible privacy policies (weight watchers, omron). Withings also has a good privacy policy. If you are using Garmin for fitness and exercise, this is the way to go. If you’re not using Garmin, Withings might be attractively less expensive.The weather function felt gimmicky but is actually kinda nice to have in the morning when you are figuring out what to wear for the temperature. It gives an icon for the overall weather, current temperature and high/low for the day.The scale also records body-fat%, water content, muscle mass and bone mass. These might have some validity but I take them with skepticism. They all bounce a bit up and down but you can visually average the graphs of each over time to see progress. The overall trend seems to be the most useful function for this data.Some have mentioned turn-on problems with the scale. Those are sort-of real. Sometimes it turns on for a second if I drop something on the floor nearby. Sometimes it doesn’t respond to a foot tap. It needs a solid thwap with your foot. At first I thought I had a problem but once I learned its preferred method to be turned on, it’s always been fine. This could definitely stand improvement though.It comes with wide feet to apply for carpeted floors, but as with any scale I have ever known, its repeatability seriously suffers on carpet. Thin industrial carpet might be ok. Thick household carpet really messes it up.

The product is attractive. Is syncs with Garmin Connect, which I use (I am an avid fan of my Garmin Triathlon watch and bike computer). HOWEVER, the readings are garbage. When I first used it, it said my body fat was 20%. I know from my old scale (Tanita) and a recent doctors visit where I was tested, that I am closer to 10%. I thought the inaccuracy wasn't too big a deal, given the other positive attributes and that the TREND in body fat is all that matters, not the actual percentage. However, the second time I got on (same time of day, 48 hours later) it said my body fat was 25%. By this, the scale suggested 10.5 lbs. of muscle turned into fat over 48 hours (obviously impossible). Inaccurate AND inconsistent measurements, sadly, means this scale is garbage. Too bad because the other features are good.

It is a good looking scale, and works well. No issues with it turning on, just a light tap (even dropping a face towel on it) will wake it up, but it does take a second to respond and be ready. Setup was easy, especially since I already use Garmin devices (Fenix 7) and the data is seamlessly integrated into my stats.I do like that it shows the weather forecast, but wish it could be reordered to be shown after the weight but before the other body metrics (BMI, etc). While you can turn off the other metrics, unfortunately it does not record them.

Great and accurate scale works great with Garmin Connect and My Fitness Plan. I weigh in everyday. A little pricey but it's worth it!

I had a Fitbit scale, this is far superior! I went through two Fitbit scales. Those had issues connecting to my home Internet. I have a Garmin watch so I thought I get the scale too. This is great. Setup was very easy and no network issues. I've had the scale for about 15 months and I've changed the batteries once. This has been a great tool for achieving my fitness goals.

Works OK and useful that it links to your garmin account and directly uploads your weight to Garmin Connect. However, the rest of the data is a complete waste of time and nonsense. It seems to just add data from tables, so assume you come back from a long ride or exercise and you have lost a kilo or two (in water weight from exercise) it will try and tell you your body fat, body muscle mass, bone weight has changed significantly.... so for example it might tell you you are 22% body fat then after a glass of water that you are 24% body fat. OK for weight but every other peace of data is pointless nonsense and is unreliable.

Excelente balanza, con productos Garmin excelente.
