Default Good scale recommendation

I have a scale in my bathroom, but its bad. It varies quite a bit. Depending on the day this can be good or bad (registers low one day, which is good, then high on another day, which is bad). Any thoughts a good scale to pick up?

Tanita. I love mine. I got the straight digital model, not the one that supposedly measures body fat. It weighs in .2 pound increments. We bought it several years ago; DH and I each weigh daily; have yet to replace the battery even! It seems quite accurate and the readout is large enough for "older eyes" to read easily too!

Wow, that does look like a good choice (amazon link). I'll have to order one of these. Thanks!

I'm with Char, Kevin. (As I often am )

Tanita, "just the weight", .2 increments. Tanita has a reputation of making a most accurate machine, and I've found that to be true.

HTH.

LOL Maggie! Yup, we do see eye to eye a lot!

I think this is the closest to the one I have:
