Does this scale have a 'memory' where it will only show greater fluctuations, or will it accurately show every 0.2 lb change, up or down?

I have not experienced this scale exhibit memory that affects subsequent results.

Yes, indeed it does. There is a switch on the back that changes the unit of measure from lbs to kgs. (and, I must say, I totally recommend this scale!)

I have no way to verify accuracy since I don't have nist traceable standard weights. Precision seems OK. I have noticed that the scale sometimes doesn't want to zero. I'll turn it on and it moves away from zero (I have seen it go higher and lower). When it does this the zero may wander as much as 10 lbs. Eventually the scale stabilizes. I have not contacted the mfg. I find this annoying but am willing to live with it since it rarely happens.

I returned mine due to inaccuracy, but I remember reading about the switch in the user's manual. I think it selects whether the weight displayed is the instantaneous weight or the maximum weight over a period of time. Check the manual if you've got it.

Seems to be very accurate and consistent. It measures in the tenths of a pound, though, and will take a few seconds to "settle" on a number, very sensitive to any movement while standing on it. We use it at our TOPS (Take Off Pounds Sensibly) meetings, and so far have not had anyone "blame the scale".. :)

From my experience, it doesn't matter how many times you move the scale. You will always get the same result. It's been an excellent scale!

No. It responds quickly to weight changes. you might raise the object up and use the tare. that way you could see the display.

It can measure accurately. However, the displayed number can disappear in the middle of weighing. The display often goes "blank", so you have to re do the weighing. If you weigh more than one item and try to add another, you will lose count if the display goes blank. If you only weigh one item, you can just reweigh that particular item. I hope this helps.

Mine does the same...intermittently. I don't know why. I have ascertained that it is NOT BROKEN. Just stuck. I keep tapping my foot lightly in the center of the scale until it shows 3 zeros. 00.0 Then I am able to weigh myself and get a proper reading. I weigh myself twice to be certain. Good luck. It is moody but, A great scale in general.

No it doesn't. It will display lbs in decimals so you can roughly work it out from that if needed. Wouldn't recommend if you needed precision at the level of ounces.

The scale auto-calibrates when it is picked up, moved or changed batteries so it adds 8+ pounds for the first weight. You just have to step off, and step back on and it will show your true weight.

Each time it's turned on, it starts at zero for whatever unit of measure you have chosen. I haven't found this to be a problem and really like the scale.

Unfortunately - no. It is so accurate because it is so sensitive. You need to find a flat place to keep it permanently - although it can be reset whenever you move it. It seems like a drag, but the other wonderful aspects of this scale far outweigh this one inconvenience.

It does show the previous result in green; but apparently it also rounds off readings to previously-measured values rather than admitting small variations. To test this I weighed myself, then weighed myself with a cup of water, then weighted myself with half a cup of water over and over. Rather than giving a result somewhere between the first two measurements it would always give one or other of the first measurements. Then I weighed my wife, and then I weighed myself with half a cup of water again, and I got a different result.

It's always faster to measure than I am. But I'm using it to weight for postage. For a quick tap, I dont know and suspect you are looking at the wrong scale. It's meant for packages. Even if it read the quick tap and your software grabed only the max entry, not sure how accurate it would be. Do know that as you press on the scale, you can see the weight change on the PC. I'm using Shipworks. Hope that helps you out.

Yes, it will display a negative result if something is removed from the scale after taring. Because the sensors keep reading the weight of the items on the platform. Please keep in mind to make sure the screen show '0' before you weigh an item, if it doesn't show '0', you may touch the TARE key to clear the result and reset it to Zero.

Yes, there is a switch on the bottom of the scale that changes between lbs and kgs
