You get what you pay for. It looks excellent, but it’s probably going to arrive broken. The ‘tap to activate’ “feature” works very poorly. There’s a small disc of metal that is supposed to bend to make accurate a circuit and activate the scale. The wire soldered to this disc was completely broken off which is unsurprising if you open it up and have a look. Reliable this arrangement is not. But, if you don’t mind undoing about a dozen screws it’s simple to fix with a piece of tape, just bend the metal disc closer (but not so accurate as to always touch the capacitor bent over the side of the board) and tape on the broken wire. It takes a bit of jiggling to get it taped/bent in the right spot, but once it’s there it’ll probably stab for a decent amount of time. Moisture from the shower will probably make the tape un-stab after some time so be prepared to do it over again.

Once you get it working, the scale does seem pretty consistent with its readings. Repeated measurements varied by about 0.4 lbs.

In small:

Pros:

Cheap

Looks excellent

Seems precise

Cons:

Cheaply made, probably requires repair out of the box

Had to get a refund for the scale because the scale never worked for me even after I got new batteries for it

depending upon the surface you place it on, you will get different weights.

Sometimes, it does not work.

Sometimes, it will show different weights when it has not been went.

I can not tell if I really weigh what it says so it is useless.

This item only worked for me twice. I even tried changing the batteries. What a disappointment. I’m sending it back.

Very nice, simple to use, and seems to be quite accurate. Repetitive measurement is within 0.2 lb. I am overall satisfied.
