This electronic scale from Taylor is one that will be so comfortable and easy to use. The oversized platform is robust and slightly curved for the best foot position, plus it is treated with a rubberized finish which provides a soft feel on the foot. To top off the design, silver accents highlight the rubberized platform. In addition, this scale reaches an ultra high 440 lb capacity yet still measures in 0.2 lb increments. The extra large 1.8� readout is very easy to see from a distance. Instant on� just step on the scale to get the weight reading, no waiting or �tapping� needed. Runs on long life lithium batteries, which are included.
