Escali - Bathroom Scales

Product Notes:

Stainless Steel Bathroom Scale, Model S200
Bathroom scales aren't always that accommodating for big people, either in their total capacity or the size of their platform, and when they are, they're often too cumbersome or obtrusive. This sleek and stylish unit solves both those problems. With nearly a 14-inch square platform, this Escali Bathroom Scale can easily accommodate very big feet (including a size 13 shoe) without your having to do a balancing act, and it has a capacity of up 440 pounds (200 kg). But it's only an inch deep, so it can be tucked under the bathroom vanity, or possibly behind the door or a shelving unit. Its operation is dead simple: simply stand on it to activate and its bright display will come on, and stay for a few seconds after you step off.

One of the main differences between the old-fashioned analogue scales and the modern digital ones, of course, is that the latter need some sort of power supply to operate the computer functions and display. Given the locale (a humid if not downright wet environment), usually that comes in the form of either standard or lithium batteries, but they of course need either replacing or recharging. That's one of the things that makes this Solar-Powered Digital Bathroom Scale with Bamboo Platform (Model ECO180) so appealing: No Batteries Required! It draws its power from a solar panel sensitive enough to be charged by either natural sunlight or artificial light.

Looks, size, high capacity, unobtrusiveness, ease of use, low maintenance, and a lifetime commitment -- the ECO180 Model has it all! It also has fairly large numbers in its LCD display that most will be able to see just by looking down, and also has a 'Hold' feature which retains the readings when you step off in case you can't.

This isn't some garish, clunky device gathering rust which you're ashamed to have seen - its platform surface is made of Bamboo, which not only has an attractive natural wood grain pattern and doesn't rust, but also has natural antibacterial properties. And although this scale is large enough for anyone to stand on easily (its surface is slightly larger than a vinyl record album cover) and can accommodate up to 400 pounds, it's only an inch and a half thick, so it can easily tuck a lot of cabinets, or you could put a laundry hamper on it.

Similarly, who says bathroom scales have to be big and clunky, or ugly, or hard to read (especially without your glasses on)? The platform of the elegant looking Model B200 Sleek Glass Bathroom Scale are made of high quality, impact-resistant ultra-thin colored tempered glass, with square contours. It has a large digital display (with numbers over an inch and a half high) right on the end where it's easiest to see, and couldn't be any easier to operate: simply stand on it, and it comes on and measures instantly, and shuts itself off a few seconds after you step off.

One of the main reasons people use bathroom scales, of course, is to monitor whether their weight is within a healthy range for their size or condition, and the Escali Model BMI150R Body Mass Index Calculating Scale with Easy Remote Display Operation can certainly help with that.

In fact, this large capacity scale (which is suitable for users up to 330 lbs or 150 kg) has several useful features for those watching their weight (whether to lose or gain it*) or those who may have trouble seeing down to their feet -- including pregnant women. It measures not only weight, of course (in increments of 0.2 lbs or 0.1 kg), but can also calculate one's BMI after you've entering the user's height, and it can be programmed to do so for up to 10 users.

The BMI150R Model has a large platform (13 inches long and across) to stand on, but is slim enough to tuck away easily. It's very easy to use (with tap-on technology that allows you to start it with your foot, and it has an auto-shutoff feature), and holds readings, if you want to read them there at the base when you step off the scale. Its display can even be read right at eye level, since the screen is detachable, and can be wall mounted* (it communicates with the scale via infrared technology), where it can also be used to display the time and date.

* People tend to assume that weight gain is bad, and weight loss is good, but it's not so simple, since one's height is another factor: taller people will have a higher healthy weight than shorter people, so it cannot be determined by weight alone whether one is in a healthy range or not. Your body mass index (BMI) is a percentage value derived from both your height and weight, and while you can calculate it on your own, this Escali scale does it for you -- no need to fiddle with a calculator or pencils and paper.

** The Infrared Remote Receiver is removable from the platform, and can be mounted on the wall like a clock (which it doubles as) for easy reading (just by hanging it on two screws, 40 mm apart; a set of screws and drywall anchors is included). (Just ensure that there is an unobstructed line of site between the sending point on the scale and the infrared receiving point before mounting; instructions are included in the product manual.)

The BMI150R scale and its infrared operation display use 4 AAA and 2 lithium batteries between them. The dimensions for its main platform are: 13.5 x 13 x 1 inches (34 x 33 x 3 cm).

Finally, the Goal-Tracking Body Composition Scale (Model USHM180G-2) is another Escali scale which is equipped to calculate your BMI for you. This is a beautiful black, elegant looking tempered glass scale with sophisticated stainless steel feet and a large backlit display that can be helpful for anyone with specific health goals, including athletes. This smart scale measures all of the necessary areas of concern, displaying percentages of body fat, muscle mass, hydration, and, of course, weight. In addition to providing those detailed percentages, the scale can store the statistics for up to ten separate users, whom it will automatically and instantly recognize as soon as they step on, once their profiles have been entered. The durable and lightweight thin (less than an inch high) design allows for convenient storage (and represents less of a threat to stubbing your toes!). Warning: Do not use this device if you have a pacemaker or other internal electronic device within your person.
