Customer Reviews of Health o Meter HDL820-18 Digital Scale with LCD
Customer Review: Logo was on upside down...or glass was on backwards
Summary: 4 Stars
I have not used this scale much, but so far everything seems to be working well. I wanted to write a review to let everyone know that when I received my scale, the "Healthometer" logo was on backwards. Or, perhaps, they put the glass on upside down. I emailed Healthometer about this, and never received a response. I didn't want to pay to ship it back, so I just tried to remove the logo myself, and found that Acetone works very well. I used 100%, but perhaps nail polish remover would also work. I hope that if you also have this problem this info is useful to you. :)Customer Review: Worst scale ever
Summary: 1 Stars
From the moment I pulled this out of the box it gave me trouble. It was having the worst time turning on. A friend has one so I knew how to use it. Then every time you would reset it and stand on it, it would tell you that you weighed 30 or so lbs less then you really did. Now normally that wouldn't be a problem!!! haha The scale is just bad. I kept it for like a week thinking maybe it was just off and I could keep resetting it and get it to act right but it became a joke. Everyone that came in the house stood on it and started laughing. Oh well!Customer Review: Poor Quality Product But Amazon Backs It Up
Summary: 1 Stars
Product failed shortly after purchase.
Manufacturer would not pay for product return, and return cost was equal to cost of product.
Amazon stepped in, arranged for free return, and sent me a replacement product from their stock, with no charge or hassle.
Zero credit for product and its manufacturer, and lots of good will for Amazon.Health o Meter HDL820-18 Digital Scale with LCD
Customer Review: Almost didn't buy this
Summary: 5 Stars
For me why buy a scale if its not accurate, right. Some of these reviews really pan accuracy. However I bought it and took ten readings. All ten readings where within a tenth of a pound. ~;-)
I have two suggestions for those having a problem, one has been mentioned, I dont know about the other.
1. Place the scale on a flat tile or wooden floor, no mat or rug.
2. Pace your toes on the same spot each time. Slipping your foot back or forward produces different results.
Happy weighing.
Customer Review: Accurate at first--then????
Summary: 1 Stars
I purchased this product in November 2008. It was very accurate at first. A month ago (7 months after purchase), it began to go wildly wrong. Weight would vary 2 lbs in successive weighings just seconds apart. Changed the battery. Didn't help. Website for Healthometer in the frequently asked questions section indicates that the scale can vary up to one pound either direction. Not good enough even if my scale was within that standard, especially since it purports to weigh tenths of a pound. A waste of money.
