Aria or Withings?

Reposting from Ontario forum.  Does anyone out there use an Aria or Withings digital scale with wifi?  I'm a huge "gadgets" person, and I've recently started using a Fitbit Flex band (I love it!).  I had been using a Jawbone Up band previously but it didn't sync wirelessly like the Fitbit Flex now does.  

To track my weight loss on a weekly basis, I want to get a fairly high tech scale that does body composition analysis and also outputs the data wirelessly so that I can save and compile it.  Since my trainer and I are planning progressive strength training into my post recovery plan, it's important to have a scale that does composition analysis too.  

I'm really tempted by the Aria because it will sync up with my FitBit dashboard and work in tandem with my Flex band.  But the Withings looks like it has a few more features for basically the same price.  So I'm hoping to hear from those of you that have one or the other and how you like it in order to help me decide between the two!

I love my Withings scale, and I love Trendweight.com. But you can use Trendweight with the Aria and if I already had a FitBit, I'd suggest keeping within that ecosystem and doing the Aria scale.

My neighbor has the FitBit/Aria/MFP hookup and every time her cleaning lady comes over she weighs herself and throws off her charts... LOLOLOL.

My cleaning person has weighed himself on my scale a few times too.  I don't think he knows I can see it!  Luckily, it's easy to delete so it doesn't throw my graphs off.
