Customer Reviews of Health o Meter HDC100-01 "Grow with Me" Teddy Bear Scale for Babies and Toddlers
Customer Review: great baby scale
Summary: 5 Stars
i got this scale to monitor what our new baby was getting during early breastfeeding. we just weighed him before and after a feeding and could see he was getting three and half ounces or whatever it might have been. this was well worth the peace of mind to know our son was getting what he needed. every new parent should own one.
runs off a 9-volt battery that i have not had to replace yet (have had scale for about a month and use it multiple times daily). the hold feature works perfect for a squirming little guy.
i have done consistency and accuracy tests with the scale and it is right on. i love this thing and recommend it to any parent. accurate to a half ounce. has a great infant tray and then it comes off for a toddler and is good up to 60 pounds. i did a lot of research and i'm glad i picked this one.
great product.

Summary: 5 Stars
I purchased this baby scale after my 2 months old baby has refluct problem and reduced her milk intake. I was really eager to monitor my baby's weight. This product works great and well worth the money (Bought this for $50 after a instant rebate from sunbeam). The most improtant thing for scale is accuracy. This is the number 1 criteria I have. This scale is accurate and within 1/2 ounce accuracy when i compared with the scale from the doctor's office. In addition to accuracy, the scale comes with function like zero out and hold. Zero out is good when i don't want to totally undress my baby and the hold function is really useful when the baby is active.. I like the fact that this baby scale can be converted to toddler scale and I can rely on it to chart my child's growth to toddlerhood. In short, it's a GREAT product!Customer Review: An accurate scale even for littlies
Summary: 4 Stars
We used this scale to relieve our anxiety about a little one's weight gain. We found it to be very close to the doctor's scale, and for our peace of mind it has been worth every penny.
When weighing babies keep in mind that a baby's weight does not increase every day, and also may vary within a day by a few ounces.
Many digital scales (and for that matter, most consumer-product digital measuring devices including thermometers) do not actually measure the same precision as their markings - for example, thermometers marked in tenths of degrees may provide a reading within 1 or 2 whole degrees of the temperature - which is completely pointless when one needs to track small variations! Happily, this scale seems to provide consistent measurements within +/- one-half ounce.
Customer Review: Great Baby Scale
Summary: 5 Stars
This scale is terrific, and has brought me much peace of mind. As a breastfeeding first-time mom, I was anxious about whether my daugther was getting enough to eat, especially since she had a difficult time regaining her birth weight in the beginning. Being able to check her weight once a week is a great relief. Caution, do not check your baby's weight too often (like each day) because the scale is so sensitive that whether or not your baby has had a bowel movement that day can affect the reading. Since infants gain about an ounce a day, checking one a week will give an accurate picture of if the baby is gaining or losing weight in total. The scale is light enough to carry in one hand (baby in other), low enough to slide under a crib and relatively inexpensive.Customer Review: This is the one
Summary: 5 Stars
We are breastfeeding our newborn, so having this scale gives me peace of mind knowing how much milk she is getting.
Two features really make this stand out: the hold feature and the zero-out feature.
(Hold) allows you to weigh a baby that moves around a lot. When she moves in the tray, By pressing the Hold button, the scale takes an average of its readings over the course of a couple seconds.
The Zero-Out feature is great for weighing babies.After you put a blanket and a diaper on the tray, press the Zero Out button and the scale resets the 0 point so when you weigh the baby, her true weight will show up on the LCD.
We really like this scale it is made very well and it does it all.
