This heavy-duty dial scale uses Taylor's exclusive ProHelixrack-and-pinion system for accuracy. It's so sensitive, the needlevibrates slightly with the pulse in your foot. Any change in yourweight is sure to register, for better or worse. If you monitor yourpounds over time for any reason, there are color-coded tabs to trackyour weight. The numbers on the dial are easy to read, and go up to 330pounds. This scale does not show kilograms. At 12 by 18 inches, this isnot a discreet scale you can slip under a bathmat, but its sleek,slightly retro design and white finish look good in any bathroom.Because of its durable construction, this is also a good scale forhigh-use areas, such as medical offices or gyms. If you like to weighyourself when you get out of the shower, the platform is covered with aslip-resistant mat. --Laura Cuthbert ... Read more

Registers different weight every time
Each time we use this scale we weigh something different.When stepping off it doesn't return to 0.Even if you 0 the scale before each use, it shows you a different weight.

This scale was broken when I took it out of the box. I stepped on it, the pointer went to 180, and stayed there. Now I have send it back, and buy something different. I wasted alot of time and effort.

Just not a quality scale
I bought this scale because the weight max. went up to 330 but, the scale has not been accurate at any weight and not even close when weighing over 300.For people under 300 it weighed about 5 pounds over, but for people over 300 it was a shot in the dark.Sometimes weighing over by 10 pounds. It's bulky and not accurate, and definitaly not worth the 50 bucks they ask for it!!

Big Enough to hold a random number generator
I bought the scale because of it's retro look and the advertized precision mechanism.I use it, but I don't like it.It is bigger than my bathroom (so it resides under my bed), and the weight varies by about 6 lbs.I usually stand on it about 4 times and take an average in my head... okay, I take the low number.So what!Afterall, it's not that low.

Bridget Jones has one of these scales
I bought this scale because I saw it in the Bridget Jones movie, only hers had numbers equal to stones [each stone is 14 american pounds]. I loved it in the movie. I have one and I love it because it is the only scale I can find with accurate information and the price is good.I have bought scales in the past that have cost over $100 and are worth two-pennies now.I love the points you can use to track your weight and put one at the desirable weight you want to be at, for me it's 150 pounds. ...

I had to visit a hospital
The nurse used this on me and the cuff felt like a balloon or floatie. It felt funny against my skin like a hug.

Excellent Little Kit
I bought this kit to practice for an EMT class I'm taking.The stethoscope has a clear sound, and there the soft ear buds make for a more comfortable fit than the standard hard plastic ones.
For use in the field, I'd probably buy a better -scope, but this suits the needs of one needing something for home/class use. ... Read more

Like Sleeping on cotton
we bought this for our guest bed since my mother in law usually sleeps there, she is allergic to dust mites and has other issues.I asked her how she slept and she said she slept fine but noticed that they vinyl cover we used was not on the bed. She was happy to learn that I used this product and is going to buy it for her own home.

breathable and waterproof
I could't believe this item at this price, but it works. I spilled red wine on it to try it out, and the wine didn't leak onto my mattrass. Very comfortable to sleep on; my wife and I didn't sweat like we did with the vinyl mattrass protector we used to have. A really wonderful product!!!!!!!!!!!!!

very comfortable and effective
my child is training to sleep thru the night without a pull up, i use to use a vinyl pad, but he would wake up wet with sweat.This mattress cover is excellent.Child wakes up like he is sleeping on cotton, after a recent accident mattress was totally dry, nothing went thur the cover.I highly recommend. ...

Using air-conduction, micro-processor technology, this hearing aid significantly amplifies ambient sounds. The MagniEar fits in either the left or right ear, and features a tiny volume control tab (a fingernail works best for adjusting it). Three soft tips in different sizes allow the user to choose the best fit. Extra batteries are included, with each one lasting approximately eight hours. For prolonged life, the battery can be removed when the aid is not in use, such as at bedtime. Wax build-up is prevented by cleaning the hearing aid daily with the included brush. A 3-by-3-by-1-inch hard case with padded interior conveniently stows all parts. Some users may need several weeks to adjust to using a hearing device; those who have acute or chronic dizziness or ear pain should not use the device. MagniEar is covered by a 90-day warranty against defects. --Ann Bieri ... Read more

Nice Scale
We have had this for about a month and have had no issues.We got rid of our last scale because the accuracy was poor.To us, it looks like the accuracy of this is about plus or minus one pound (if you stand on it and it reads 150 and then stand on it five minutes later, it might read 149).The overall size makes it easy to keep in the bathroom.To use it, you tap it with your foot to turn it on and then it takes a second or two for it to calibrate.Once you stand on it, it give you your weight in a second or two.The display is easy to see. ...

Two lines????
I too had two lines on my test, although the first was very faint. The test read "not pregnant", but now I am not so sure...would not buy again.

If you are a frequent HPT taker...don't use this one!
I had an absolutely terrible time with this HPT.The assembly and everything is fine...very self explanatory.I took the test and it read negative.I then took the test stick out to throw it away and noticed two lines on the stick.I, being someone who has taken A LOT of pregnancy tests, know that two lines means pregnant.I then called the company to ask them about this problem.The woman on the phone was VERY rude and explained to me that the stick was not to be read except with the digital reader.I then asked her...well why are there two lines but it still says negative.She then proceeded to tell me that I needed to read the instructions and "somehow" we got disconnected.I still do not know if I am pregnant or not.But when I do finally test again, I will be using a regular "plus" or "minus" one from now on.

AWESOME
I used this test in the evening and within three minutes, I got the "pregnant" reading.The reading stays on for up to an hour after the test is complete.I took another one in the morning and before I even got done going to the bathroom, I had the "pregnant" reading.It is really an idiot-proof test.The test lets you know if you are doing it correctly.HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!

Great idea, but...
I used three of these tests, and each time the read-out (ten minutes later!) was "inconclusive."I then used a regular e.p.t. and got a positive result in seconds.Maybe it was user error, but I wouldn't buy this again. ... Read more

Sizing
I've just had this for a day, and it seems OK for hand fatigue so far.

FYI on sizing
Measure across your knuckles (index to pinky), on your palm.
up to 3 inches = small
3 in. up to just over 3.5 inches = medium
3.7 inches (or so) to 4+ in. = large.

avoid wearing anything like it during the day
If you wear this glove and still use your hand, you are not helping Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS) or Repetitive strain injuries.You will not be preventing yourself from furthur injury nor will you be treating your injury.If you wear this glove during the day and have CTS or repetitive strain injury you will be making your condition worse.

For a brief period of time, my doctor told me to wear one when I was sufferning from CTS.Later, I discovered that the glove was actually making my condition worse.This glove still allows one to use the hand in grasping and squeezing yet restricts one from using the muscles to keep the wrist from drooping.CTS and other repetitive strain injuries of the wrist are caused by a muscle imbalance in the wrist and fingers.Hence when a person wears a glove like this they are increasing the muscle imbalance and worsening their condition.Wear this glove at night when you are asleep, but NEVER use it during the day.

Great Product!!!
Wow!I can't believe how quickly my wrists stopped aching when I am at work.The gloves feel great, they're soft and they don't make your hands sweat.The best thing I found was that they don't restrict the motion of your hands, so it's easy and comfortable to type when they're on.I suggest trying them out for yourself.

Kinda Good
I just purchased 2 gloves, one for each hand.They were not exactly the same size, one was slightly harder to get my hand into than the other.I am still using them and think that I may start seeing improvement in the comfortability of my hands, but it remains up in the air.The looser feeling of the gloves does feel really good and make it easier to type.I would have also preferred that they use some softer or gelly like substance in the palms of the gloves instead of the bean bag type stuff they currently are using.Overall, if your hands hurt before, during, or after typing, these are definately something that you should at least try out for yourself. ...
