It ticks my boxes
I was done with fussy scales that required batteries and still didn’t always perform properly. I didn’t want to spend $50 on a new one either. So, for 30-something bucks including taxes, etc. I got the following:1) a scale that doesn’t need batteries2) a scale that can be reset manually with ease. If it’s one or two ticks off then I’m capable of doing the math to adjust the total.3) a scale that can handle the worst case scenario (though thankfully, no one in our family needs anything close to the max.) You never know when a chubby houseguest might need a reality check and be open to it.4) accuracy matches the one that I have now (when it chooses to measure accurately… but when it does, it’s pretty close to the doctor’s scale). I am more interested in the movement than the exact number anyway.5) nice size surface to stand on. I was concerned that my large and extra wide feet might have trouble fitting onto the scale because of other’s comments. I was happy to see that only my pinky toes extended a little beyond the edge. To put it in perspective, my feet are so wide that I often buy men’s sneakers for the wide toe-box in a size 9, & in the absolute widest shoe that they have. FYI, New Balance is the brand that usually has a wide toe-box, for any other reader so afflicted. Even 3X wide women’s shoes aren’t wide enough, and hurt my feet. My shoe wardrobe is a sad thing of mostly New Balance sneakers and Birkenstocks let out to the max almost, and painful flats and pumps for "fancy." I guess I shouldn’t have gone barefoot most of my childhood, lol. Anyway, I hope the size specs help someone else decide whether or not the surface of the scale is right for their feet.Thanks to the honest feedback of other purchasers of this product, I was prepared to take a photo of the scale reading with my phone. I can very easily see the numbers, but I agree with others that it is hard to see the little tickmarks indicating individual pounds. The photo solved that problem, easy peasy. But even without it I will be able to see pretty clearly whether the bold red hand is closer or further away from a given number.Also, thanks to others‘ comments, I will pay attention to the nice non-slip rubber. Mine appears very well attached, but I will be ready with some adhesive should I see the least bit of detachment. Hopefully I will be able to avoid that issue!Size wise, it fits neatly within our standard tiles that are 13 x 13. It should also fit very well on 12 x 12 tiles. It is annoying when a scale wobbles around a bit because of the unevenness of grout lines.

Great scale, but needs to be re-calibrated often.
The scale is a nice size. Easy to stand on. Easy to view the weight, as long as you are comfortable with a non-digital scale. My only complaint is that the scale frequently goes off by 2 or 3 pounds. (I can tell that because when no one is on it, it says the air weights 2 or 3 lbs). It's pretty easy to adjust that with the front dial. But FYI, it keeps happening. I like that it's "basic" and not a fancy expensive scale. It suits my needs just fine.

Great scale, very accurate
Accurate scale, no batteries very nice looking. the only complaint is it that the dial is a little small and a bit hard to read.

Very well made.
This replaced our attractive, but relatively short-lived scale. It is sturdy and not unattractive, but dependable. Although I don't necessarily like what it tells me, I know it's more accurate than the digital, which was always off by about 7lbs.

2.5 really
over priced for the quality, but it's ok for a basic reading. box got banged around in shipment so the clear plastic disc protecting the dial was loose in the box and then wouldn't fit back on properly. should have gotten the white dial as the black dial is a bit hard to read without really good light or you're two feet tall. reading likely isn't all that accurate but at least it doesn't need batteries.

Works great! Easy to calibrate.
I bought this after being frustrated with a digital scale that had an error of +/- 4 lbs. I figured an old school analog scale would be less prone to problems and it works great as expected. There's a knob you can use to zero it for calibration.The dial is large but when you stand on top it can be hard to read unless you have good overhead lighting, so maybe don't use it in a room that only has indirect lighting.For all the technology we have in the world this is one of those cases where the old analog way really is better. Very satisfied with the scale. It just works.

Weighing in...
Great scale, goes up to 400lbs which most of these don't. We needed this because we were sure our digital scale wasn't accurate, but we knew this one would do the trick. It is a little small for my monstrous feet, but overall it works great!

Accurate no fuss scale
The scale arrived on time. It is accurate but the numbers are difficult to read. There is no 130 just a line between 120 and 140 and it’s difficult to see.

Grossartig mit kleiner Einschränkung
Tip top mechanische Badwaage mit geradezu exzessiven Wiegerahmen von 180kg. Justierung per Stellrad ist kindereinfachDie A25 reagiert schnell ist, robust, und was auch immer hier einige Leute behaupten auch bei deutlicher Weitsichtigkeit ohne Brille gut ablesbar. Wiegegewicht entspricht dem der elektornischen Waage, man hat aber nicht das Problem des Batteriewechsels ...Es gibt wirklich nichts auszusetzen.......ausser - die Waage ist recht kompakt. Habe mit Schuhgrösse 43 1/2 schon Probleme mittig und wiegend sicher zu stehen - Leute mit Schuhgröße 45 oder mehr..... Damengrößen sind nicht betroffenHinzu kommt wenn man dann auch noch einen Bauch haben sollte, wird der Blick zur Anzeige.. eingeengtIch werde diese wohlzurückgeben (vielen Dank Amazon ) und mir eine mit etwas größerer Stehfläche für Männerflossen zulegen
