Maintaining a fit and healthy body is more than just about weight. Here are the benefits for tracking your total body composition with an Omron Full Body Sensor. | | |  | | |  | | | What is the Bioelectrical Impedance Method?
Bioelectrical Impedance (BI) is considered one of the most accurate and accessible methods of screening body fat and other body composition measurements in the privacy of your own home. Within seconds, BI sends an extremely weak signal to measure the inside of your body. Muscle, blood, bone and body tissue have high water content, which means they conduct the BI signal easily. Body fat, however, stores no water, so the BI signal is blocked or impeded from easily traveling throughout the body. The blocked signal (or high impedance) indicates the presence of more body fat. | | | Power and Dimensions

Customer Reviews
A good body fat monitor/ scale -- 2010-08-29
Works great, love all the functions. Bought it to motivate myself to improve my fitness/body weight. Has been a great tool. Wished Omron had model HBF-362 in the US which has similar functions but better looking display/graphics. Noticed HBF-362 is only available in asian market.
useful and compact -- 2010-08-28
it has functions that fits to your expectations, such as BMI - body fat - muscle rate - body age etc.. and easy to use..
I totally suggest this product.
Great scale buy it! -- 2010-08-25
This scale is a great buy. The extra 10-20 dollars is worth it for such a good scale with measurements the other scales don't have.
Not for any sort of athletes -- 2010-08-18
Unfortunately after spending a couple hours trying to find the right body fat monitor I came away very disappointed with this one. It measured me at 22% body fat percent and a body age of 55 (whatever that means) which blew me away and even bummed me out. So I decided to step it up and get the professional hydrostatic test done at a local gym. These are far more accurate and I came away with a 7.7% body fat. That's a huge difference! Now I like to stay active and all but I had no idea there would be this much of a gap.
Piece of junk -- 2010-08-15
I had such high hopes for this product, and am extremely disappointed. I believe it to be be very inaccurate. Here's why:
I bought this product 6 months ago, and 3 months ago went on a diet and exercise plan. I cut my saturated fat intake by 80% and replaced it with unsaturated fats (but less fat, overall). I started to run and lift weights, never taking more than 1 day rest per week on average. 45 minutes a day of exercise on average.
People who haven't seen me in that entire period of time couldn't believe how much more muscular I look, how trim I am now. I can see myself as well. There's a notable difference.
Yet, here's the kicker, this thing doesn't reflect the changes at all.
Compared to 3 months ago:
Apparently I have lost 2 pounds (this, I can believe due to less caloric/fat intake and more cardio, but still gaining some muscle mass to make sure I compensated for the fat loss somewhat). But, I have also apparently gained 3% body fat and lost 2% muscle mass in that time and I am about twice my actual age (per their calculations).
Seriously? This has to be a joke! More fat, less lean muscle, and "older" than when I started to exercise. I know someone with a big beer belly who has as much body fat as I do! According to their calculations, for my height, weight, age, I am classified as obese. No joke.
Don't buy this junk. Save yourself the money. It has been nothing but a huge letdown to me (and psychologically it can do damages to your exercise routine).
