It drives me nuts that my scale is not accurate! I get on and it says 360 and I reset it and get back on and it says 345 etc etc. I put my daughter on and it says E and then reset it and put her back on and it weighs her as 167 then reset it and put her back on and E again. What specific brand etc is a reliably accurate scale to buy that will weigh up to 400 lbs?

What is the "E"  - Is it error? Do you need to change your battery?

Yes, I'm assuming it's error

I bought a $30 digital from Walmart and it works perfectly. Maybe you should change the batteries and see if that helps. If it doesn't then take it back and get a new one.

I bought a scale from livingxl.com it weighs up to 550lbs and was on sale for 59.00 I think...its pretty accurate but the difference btween my scale and the drs is that mine weighs 4lbs heavier so I just subtract the difference

I purchased a Eat Smart Precision Digital Bathroom Scale from Amazon.com

I can honestly say it is the most consistently accurate scale I have ever had. Check out the reviews on Amazon.

I got mine from Target, the Taylor brand. It weighs the exact the same as the PCP's- I checked the last time I went, checked at home and then when I got on their scale, even to the ounce. It also happens to be who makes my food scale. They rock and are reasonably priced.

Be careful with the Biggest Loser ones though!!!! I bought it and after 2 weeks it started telling me I weigh 139, and I most assuredly do not.
