  This scale is very poor quality. The projection numerals are hard to read. The battery panel in the back has never closed correctly…the cover falls off every time someone steps on the scale and I had to tape it in place in order to keep the batteries from falling out. The scale itself feels like it is going to break when anyone over 150 pounds steps on it. It literally sounds like it is cracking under the weight. It has held up to this point, but it’s only a month old and I doubt it will last more than six months at this rate.

  I should have known better after seeing similar poor reviews on other Taylor products. I won’t make this mistake again.

  I wish I had read the 1 review before I purchased this scale. It looked really good when it arrived and seemed to work fine. I purchased it because we were having a weigh in at our church and one of the members is over 400 lbs so I needed a “Heavy Duty” scale. I thought this would be it. Not so, it is flimsy and on the day of the weigh in the battery cover kept coming off and the batteries would fall out. After weighing 5 people it stopped showing the correct weight. It kept getting stuck on 9.5 lbs! We were unable to complete our weigh in and have to put it off until we get another scale.

  I ordered the scale as I had hit 402 on my doctors scale and needed one that would hold me. This one arrived in half the time stated, and was excellent right out of the box. We have moved it three times, always following the instructions to reset it to the new location before using it. It is reliable, and works extremely well. By the by, I am down to 360 since purchasing it 40 days ago – but I don’t think the scale is the reason – but I know it is a huge part of my daily regime, knowing that it will accurately reflect my body weight. I highly recommend this scale.

  I had purchased another scale, but for the life of me, could not get it to work. I kept getting the “E” message, meaning error. I decided to check out Amazon, and even though this was a bit pricey, I decided to give it a try. This scale works fantastic!!! Out of the box it worked perfectly, and having it beam on the wall is even better. I was having to bend over to see what my weight was, this way I just look at the wall. It shows up very clearly on the wall !! I am very happy with this purchase and would suggest it to anyone wanting to purchase a new scale. It arrived very quickly, and was packaged carefully. Thanks again Amazon…

  I had some concerns about this scale from the other reviews especially the creaking sounds. After I ordered it I did hear something when I stepped on the scale but nothing like the other reviewers describe. I called Customer Service at Taylor and they had me speak with the product manager for this scale. The inside of the scale has a steel plate to handle the extra weight. This scale isnt going anywhere! If the battery door comes off its because it wasnt clicked in properly. Once you hear it click you know it is locked in. The only time the display can be blurry is if you angle it up too high on the wall.

  This scale has been nothing but awesome since I got it! I am a larger guy that never really knew my true weight since I could never find a scale that had a large enough capacity. The platform size was never large enough and the weight display was too tiny to read.

  This scale addresses ALL the problems I’ver had with other scales in the past. It handles my weight, the platform is roomy and with the display showing on the wall it is easy to read.

  I am now on a strict diet with my doctor and when I weigh myself at his office the reading I get at home matches the weight exactly.

  My friends and family have used the scale and they all love it too!
