Reviews for Fitbit Aria Wi-Fi Smart Scale

I am seeking to loose weight on a slow but sure program — I purchased a Fitbit Aria Scale mainly so the data would be tracked.

However, I am concerned about the accuracy of the scales — occasionally they go haywire and show with a weight that 80+ kilos above, but my main concern is the variation from repeated measures.

The details below are from multiple weighings over a 10 minute period in which there was zero reason for my weight to vary.

March 30 at 1:09PM Measurement 98.5 kg 33.3% fat
March 30 at 1:08PM Measurement 98.5 kg 33.2% fat
March 30 at 1:07PM Measurement 98.1 kg 33.2% fat
March 30 at 1:07PM Measurement 98.6 kg 33.2% fat
March 30 at 1:05PM Measurement 98.9 kg 33.0% fat
March 30 at 1:03PM Measurement 98.5 kg 32.8% fat
March 30 at 12:54PM Measurement 98.5 kg 32.8% fat
March 29 at 10:31AM Measurement 97.1 kg 32.7% fat
March 29 at 10:30AM Measurement 97.1 kg 32.7% fat
March 29 at 10:30AM Measurement 97.6 kg 32.8% fat

The 3 measures yesterday over a 2-minute period were in the range 97.1–97.6 kg

The 7 measure today over a 15-minute period are in the range 98.1–98.9 kg

The 1+kg increase over a single day when there was no specific change in diet, exercise, etc indicates inaccuracy.

The variation of 0.8 Kg in the recorded weights over a 15-minute period today also indicates inaccuracy.

Brilliant Idea, poorly executed with minute by minute variances and daily inaccuracies which make it too unreliable for serious athletes. Prior to a triathlon it was 2kg out from correct weight which lead to miscalculation of fluid and carbo loading.
Regular download problems and poor support its a gimmick for the lycra set but for authentic training get an analog scale from the pharmacy.

This is the best purchase ever! I would definitely recommend this product to friends and family! Only if those who gave it a bad review were more tech savvy they would enjoy this product too. Please seek technical help if you are having trouble with your product and don't ruin the experience for every one else. This scale is accurate and works well syncing to the website! I also love using my Fitbit zip! Won't leave home with out it! Don't for get to download the app to log your calories! Good luck on your fitness goals and I hope you all enjoy this product too!

i am using apps , i really appriciated . app is growing days by days . Great product, works right out of box
automaticly sends to computer Setup was straight forward, and tracking my body fat percentage could not be easier.

I'm very happy with my Fitbit Aria. It was easy to set up and works well. My weight is automatically logged over wifi whenever I step on it. It also knows me from others who use the scale.

It did take me 2 tries to set up, but after that it has worked flawlessly. During setup it forced me to use 3 initials for my name (even though I don't have a middle name). Fortunately I could change my name to two characters on fitbit's website and the scale automatically synced. They fitbit website is great! It lets you look at your stats in lots of different ways. Too bad the iPhone app isn't as good as the website :( I lost about 5lbs, but the graph scale is 100lbs making that 5lbs get lost in the details.

Spent several hundred USD to make it work in a professional WLAN-environment. Fitbit staff not helpful at all. Once installed scale works fine.

At first it felt like an unessecarily expencive scale but it's extra features of uploading your data, weight and bodyfat, directly onto your fitbit account has made it so much easier to keep track of my weight. It is easy to set up and uses my wireless internet at home to upload the data to my account where I also keep my activities, food intake and sleep patterns (using the fitbit tracker to record activities and sleep). Everything concerning my health and wellbeing is located on the same place easily accessed on my computer, iPad and iPhone. I love it!
