RENPHO Smart Scale for Body Weight, FSA&HSA Eligible, Bathroom Digital Scale with BMI, Body Fat, Bluetooth Fitness Equipment Sync with Apps, Accurate for Weight Loss, Home Use, 400 lbs - Elis 1

After obsessing for weeks about whether to buy a $200+ smart scale or the RENPHO at literally one tenth of the cost of the expensive scales, I decided that I would take a chance on RENPHO. This scale did, after all, make everyone's list of best scales as the best budget option. My only reservation was that I am a Garmin Connect user, and there was no way to directly upload data from the scale to my Garmin account. So far, I am very happy with the RENPHO. Setup with the RENPHO app was super-easy, and I was recording my weight and body composition in no time, and the data seem to be accurate. As far as connecting the data to my Garmin account, I was unable to implement a free GitHub application for syncing data from RENPHO to Garmin. I have some technical skills, but implementing the app was too difficult. So, I decided to purchase a subscription to a service for syncing to Garmin. The setup for that service was not exactly straightforward, as you have to first sync the data to Fitbit and then to Garmin, and there are sometimes delays in the syncing. But it does work satisfactorily. If Garmin ever upgrades its current S2 smart scale, I may switch over, but, for now, I am quite happy with the RENPHO scale.

Connectivity has been the best part of this scale. Syncs cleanly with the Renpho app and pushes data straight into my Garmin app, which is exactly what I wanted. Cheap for what it does — most smart scales at this price point don’t play this nicely with other platforms. As for accuracy, the weight reading seems consistent, but the body fat and other body composition numbers should be taken with a grain of salt. That’s true of pretty much every consumer scale that uses bioelectrical impedance — they’re better at tracking trends than giving you a real number. Use it to spot direction, not as a medical readout. Pros: • Easy to set up • Syncs with Garmin, Apple Health, Fitbit, Google Fit, etc. • Solid value for the price • Sleek, low-profile design • Supports multiple users Cons: • Body fat / composition readings are ballpark at best • Needs bare feet on the metal sensors to read anything beyond weight • App pushes notifications you’ll probably want to mute Tips: • Weigh at the same time of day, same conditions, for consistent tracking • Watch the trend line, not the daily number • Make sure the floor is hard and flat — carpet throws it off

Love this scale and all the measurements it give you! Not only your weight but BMI, differs fat sources. Can compare to a start day or any other day. Lots of information just a click of a button using the app!

Works as advertised. Makes keeping track of your weight seamless.

easiest scale i've setup. I apprecaite the blue tooth option in place of sharing with wifi.

Once you get it to work, it's fantastic. SETUP NOTE IS BELOW. I'm coming off of a traditional, weight-only scale. I upgraded because I wanted some idea of the other biomarkers, but also because I didn't want to keep entering the data into Apple Health (not to mention, Apple Health doesn't calculate BMI automatically, so that's another like 3 steps I wanted to avoid). I know, the biomarker data I get from a ~$20-25.00 scale is not going to be 100% accurate, but it's close enough to give me an idea when comparing against other numbers. The bluetooth connectivity on this scale is top notch. Just two steps to add it to the app, and the app automatically updates Apple Health with all of the biomarkers for me. It can accomodate up to something like 400#, so good for most people. (Should be good for literally all people, so maybe some incentive if you're above that.) I found this scale consistently says I'm ~.6-1# /lighter/ than my other electronic scale did. They're both digital, it's a black box how they measure weight, but I choose to believe the old scale has been overestimating my weight for the past few years. I absolutely have privacy concerns about sharing my data with faceless companies who are aggregating it and selling it. I share as little personal data as I can, ever. So before I purchased, I downloaded the app and confirmed you can use it without an account (no account, no uploads, all data stored locally on your device). This is without a doubt THE reason I purchased this one. I already returned competitor items that didn't have local-only functionality without apology. Also, if you do create an account-- there's the option to fully delete it. HOWEVER, to get the app to work properly and measure all of the biomarkers other than weight and height, there is an involved process. I discuss that below. All in all, I think the scale is just great. Especially for the price. ===SETUP NOTES=== For some reason, when I first used the app out-of-the-box with local only ("Guest") settings, it would only take my weight (and calcualte BMI). It consistently said it could not read my other metrics. I tried everything to support conductivity between the pads and my feet to no avail. I even tried other people, same result. I finally got it working, and I'm not sure if this is the answer for everyone but this is what worked for me. 1. Download app, login to guest mode, find and install scale. 2. On the Home Screen, click the far right selector "Me" 3. Click "Settings", Set "Auto Detect Nearby Devices" to "Off" 4. Back to home screen, select scale. Stand on scale and take measurement (don't forget to put your phone down nearby) 5. After the measurement you should get all results. If you get "If impedance is not detected y the scale, certain metrics such as body fat (%) will not be measured and recorded. Click here for assistance." continue on. 6. Home Screen > "Me" > "Account" 7. Log out of Guest Account, Create new account. 8. Create an account using dummy data, login. NOTE: You do need to verify your email address, so make sure you can access whichever one you use. Maybe use a plus address for ease. 9. Return to the home screen, select scale. Stand on the scale and take a measurement. You may or may not see the impedenace alert again. Ignore it. 10. Home Screen > "Me" > "Account" 11. Settings > Delete Account 12. Confirm account deletion (IIRC there was a confirmation for that too. Maybe email, maybe password?) 13. App should auto-logout, login again as guest. You should see your previous weight only data on the app. 14. From the home screen, select scale. Stand on the scale and take a measurement. After the reading, I got a chime and all measurements were taken. Hope this helps others looking to use this fantastic scale without sending their data away.

Started Glp1 treatment and from what I read up on, sounded like a smart scale was the way to go. Didn’t want to invest a lot as I had a really good scale I was happy with. Also a little worried if it would really work or not. Must say I’ve been pleasantly surprised as it runs pretty close to my other scales number and it seems to be doing a good job with body measurements. For the price, I’m happy.

This BMI weight scale works very well for tracking weight and other body metrics in a simple, convenient way. The readings feel consistent and accurate, and the display is easy to read. Setup is straightforward, and it’s helpful for monitoring progress over time. Overall, it’s a reliable and practical scale that provides useful health tracking information at home

Good quality product 👌

I’m genuinely impressed with the RENPHO Elis 1 Body Fat Scale. For the price, it offers incredible value. Setup was a breeze - just install the app, connect via Bluetooth, and you’re good to go in under 2 minutes. What really stands out is the amount of data it provides beyond just weight - body fat %, muscle mass, water %, metabolic age, and more. It syncs effortlessly with the app and helps me track my progress over time in a very clear and visual way. It looks sleek in the bathroom, feels sturdy, and handles multiple users without confusion. If you’re serious about understanding your health metrics and want a reliable, smart scale that doesn’t break the bank, this is it.

I am a student of accredited Human Nutrition degree and we use various professional equipment for body composition readings at the university. I have tested this scale against our very expensive bio-impedance scale and they both have pretty similar readings, which only shows that this is a good quality personal body composition scale! Obviously, there will always be differences in results from various body composition methods as the perfect method wasn't discovered yet, except post mortem tissue analysis! So far, bio-impedance methods are highly accurate and good indicator of where you stand. This scale is very easy to use and the fact that you can connect it to your phone is pretty awesome! The value is also great, I can only recommend!
