Product Description
Handy for monitoring the progress of dieting and exercise, this device measures body fat by emitting a beam of infrared light. Because muscle absorbs light and fat reflects it, the monitor records the amount of the light reflected back, calculates the percentage of fat in the body part being scrutinized, and instantly displays the result on a LCD screen. It will also recall from its memory a user's previous reading. Programmable by age, height, weight, and gender, the monitor compares a user's results to the standard minimum/maximum range of body fat for others with those factors. It operates on one 9-volt battery (included), weighs just 2.9 ounces, measures 4 by 2 by 1.6 inches, comes in a padded travel/storage case, and carries a one-year warranty against defects. --Fred Brack

Rating
This device is an aid to anyone wanting to keep track of their body fat. I got it because I need to lose some serious body fat
What I like:
++ You can measure individual sections of your body
++ It’s much more accurate that body fat scales
++ It has a “history” so you can access your previous readings
What I don’t like:
++ It’s a little hard to get used to holding it in the beginning, but you can get the hang of it if you practice!
Overall: I’d say, if you are concerned about your body fat, make the investment.
