Can I store the scale upright (on one of its sides)?

I have not tried to do that but I see no reason it cannot be stored this way.

That should not be a problem at all - I have not stored mine that way, but I did read in some of the reviews that others have and have not had a problem! I love this scale.

We keep ours stored 'this way' in the bathroom... it slightly is leaning between the wall and a cabinet. This also keeps it stationary and from tipping over... so far this way hasn't been a problem.

Only if you lean it up against a wall or dresser or... The outer edge of the scale is a ~3/8" piece of glass that is the platform you step on. The framing for the floor "weighing" foundation is attached inside the glass platform about 1" from the edges. Leaning could slip since it is only the edge holding it up and on hardwood, the movement of the boards when walking neat the scale might send it down. On carpet, it would not be a problem. With hardwood, you would probably want to creat a base to keep it from slipping down. Hope this helps...

Does this need to be re-calibrated when you move it before you weigh yourself?

I bought one a couple months ago and keep it stored upright without a problem.

I have stored mine on its side and so far I have had no problem. I've had mine almost 5 months.

Yes, mine is standing vertical, but it wouldn't be sturdy enough to stack another unit on top.

I have one and also keep it on its side. I just love it. You won't be disappointed

No. just one side. But you don't want to store on both sides anyway.... they would get too mixed up, and come off of the magnetic sheet.

I use mine vertically - have the top half packed full of records and only a handful on bottom and its held just fine. Go for it!

Yes you can. I prefer to use the stand this way. I find when I use it as a 6 tier stand it can be a little unstable.

I have always left it upright. Should be a sealed system and can be stored lying down, but I would not.

Yes, you should be able to. I would just be careful because the front of the scale is actually glass.

You'd have to lay it on its side. The top trays can be adjusted for length only.

I guess it could be stored upright but if you were going to lean it against a wall you wou have to have something heavy against it so the wheels wouldn't roll out from under it. So, not impossible but much more difficult.

You can store them in the trays laying on their sides only, but there's room in the bottom, that's where I store mine.

We store them 'side to side' (horizontally). I believe that you can certainly store vertically; but with time, the weight will debilitate the structure. We store the CD's/DVD's in these cases in individual paper bags, and when they're full, they are very heavy.

Not really... no. The shelves are not tall enough for the albums to fit upright. Of course you could stack albums on there, but I would not want to store my albums on their sides (and the albums are a little wider than the shelves are deep). Hope this helps. For what it's worth, I don't think the weight would be a problem... the shelves are very strudy.

I don't think it's stable enough to stand upright. I store it nicely in my cupboard, as I also have limited counter space.

No. You must be in a standing position since your weight is used to operate the device. It is easy, however, to store under a desk or similar small area.
