Everyone's already said this, but I got mine at Sams's and it's horrible. It's not even relatively correct. I mean, sometimes my BF measures with calipers with a higher number and the scale says a lower number or vice versa. Mine says my BF is 27% and my BF measures with calipers between 16 and 17%.
This article says in order for them to be accurate you cant excercise 12 hrs before and cant eat for 4 hours before. so that basically means they are never accurate
