Tanita BC-545N
According to our personal scale expert
Use the Tanita BC-545N if you want to get the most out of your sports performance and if you want to start living a healthier lifestyle. There are many factors besides your body weight that are important. The Tanita BC-545N knows this too. Measuring your weight is a piece of cake compared to what else the BC-545N can calculate. For example, it knows your BMI value, fat percentage, body water percentage, muscle and bone mass, visceral fat level, and metabolic age within 15 seconds. Working towards better health becomes easier and more fun, because you'll have all the important factors in one overview. In addition, the Tanita BC-545N remembers everything for you, so that you can see any improvement in the memory right away.
Note: the Tanita BC-601 is suitable for children aged 5-17, but can only calculate weight, body fat percentage, and BMI value. Note: using a scale with body analysis may lead to health risks for pregnant women, children, or people that use medical electronic devices. Check the manual before use.Body analysis | ||

This scale is an excellent model, which is also used in many gyms and by many dieticians. The measurements are, as far as that with a scale that uses bio-impedance measurement, relatively accurate and have a deviation of about 2-3 percent from the fat percentage measurement that was done with a 7-point measurement with forceps . If I compare this with my previous scale (omron BF511) it is a lot more accurate, this week almost 11-12 percent off.
The ease of use is fine, a matter of creating a user with some basic data such as date of birth, gender and height. Then you step on the scale and it performs the first measurement and saves your profile. You can do this for up to 5 users, after which a user can call up his or her profile when performing the measurement. The measurements are stored in the memory and can also be consulted later via the display.
The only thing this scale does not have is the option to connect the scale to your phone via bluetooth or wifi and so easily keep track of your progress, but I was already aware of this before purchasing. The reason I chose this scale anyway is that in this price segment I prefer to go for good quality measurements than the convenience of app synchronization. I now simply save the data in a separate app, which also works fine. Entering in a separate app does not cost you much time either, but you are then sure of a solid measurement.
What is also important to know is that measuring by means of bioimpedance will never be 100% accurate and can also differ from day to day. The differences between different scales can also be quite large, so try to use only 1 scale and preferably at a fixed time of the day. A morning measurement can already give a completely different result than an evening measurement, so for the best possible comparison you want to use the same conditions for your measurement. Day, time, whether you have had a lot or little to drink and even the surface can already make a significant difference.

Those who want to know more than just the weight and have the money can buy this scale, but do not expect reliable information (except for the weight). The measurements fluctuate a lot and depend on many factors (drinking a few glasses of water beforehand can already do something in favor of the fat percentage). By taking weekly averages (and measuring at the same times and the same circumstances) you will be able to see some trends/developments, but that's about it. That is probably also possible with a Blokker device of 25 euros, but it only measures via signals through the legs.
The InBody scale at the gym (much more expensive, but more reliable) gives different numbers. The Tanita also does not indicate the correct muscle mass. Then I would have 63kg of muscle (according to official measurement I have 32kg of muscle). The device actually means lean body mass (75 kg - 12 kg fat in my case), but that is different from pure muscle mass.
In terms of design and what is measured (also really per arm, leg, etc.) it is detailed and it is handy that you can save users. Only the figures therefore require proper interpretation. And as always: just look in the mirror ;).

the scale is used in my practice. I provide guidance during the protein diet. and it is very important to know how much fat loss there is and how the muscle mass is doing. so for me this is a winner and the customers think it looks "cool".
