 I took about £4 out of Sooty's bottom Member 685, 8719 posts SQ 225, BP 150, DL 290665.0 kgs @ 93kgs UnEq | Looking to get some really good quality scales for our works gym.I'm thinking mechanical rather than digital and they really need to be robust because A) we have some morbidly obese f**kers on our site who might get on and B) they will no doubt be treated with zero respect by everyone else. | ||

Our old ones would be 1-2kg out at 70kg, but 5kg out at 100kg. 8kg out at 115kg etc. I'd personally go with Salter, or use the ones that charge 20p or so to use so they don't get abused 50 million times a day. Digital ones will need their batteries replacing every couple of weeks due to CONSTANT use by easily pleased idiots who find it novel, and will weigh themselves 3-4 times in one session, often 2-3 times within one minute. | ||
