I have not been able to find online any objective reviews of the Taylor products. User comments are at such commercial sites as Amazon.com and Epinion.com.

Here's one Amazon.com review:

This one was one of the cheapest that I considered and it works like a charm. If you want something sleek and simple, yet durable and reliable, this is a great choice.

And another:

Either I am too stupid to use this scale correctly or it is not accurate AT ALL! I have read some of the other reviews and it sounds like most people have found it to be an accurate scale so I must have gotten a dud. I weighed myself 5 times within 5 minutes after it gave inconsistent readings and I got 5 different weights.

I guess it could be argued that it was being accurate because my whole foot doesn't even fit on the thing so I tried it with my toes hanging off, my heels hanging off, on one foot...every way I could think of to get two readings the same and none of it worked. It was a gift for my girlfriend and she has found the same fluctuations. Be forwarned, if you need a consistent accurate reading, you may want to shell out a little more money or stay away from this one.
