Withings’ luxury weighing scale is amazing, if inessential
My first impression is that it looks like someone glued Withings’ cheaper Body Comp scale to its own weighted base and it feels wonderfully solid. So too does the grip, which you’ll need to do any of the fancy body-analysis tests during your morning weigh-in. It’s held in place with a thin but sturdy-looking braided tension-reel cable that I’m sure will survive a lot but, that said, I’m not going to leave it in the vicinity of my children.
Not that there’s much to learn: Get on the scale, hold the grab at pelvis height and wait 90 seconds for it to do its thang. It’ll run the gamut of tests measuring your weight, body fat, muscle mass, visceral fat, ECG, Pulse Wave Velocity, vascular age and nerve health. It’ll then relay those data points to you in a big, bright, bold and easy-to read manner, followed by the day’s weather and an indicator about the local air quality .
It’s early days, but there’s been nothing on the analysis that feels like it’s wrong, although it’ll need a lot of calibration testing to prove that definitively. The segmented body composition is certainly spot on, highlighting the areas of my body that are carrying the most timber. And it’s nice, easy to understand, and sobering to see the healthy and unhealthy parts of my body.
There is the problem that all of this data may not be taken very seriously by your physician if you rush in asking for help. A medical practitioner in the UK, who asked not to be named, said that while the inclusion of a six-lead ECG in a bathroom scale was impressive, they wouldn’t be swayed by the results it produced. Instead, they would look at the symptoms the patient was presenting, their medical history, and would run their own ECG before making any judgment.
