I was so excited to get this fat analyzer thinking that it would give me accurate information for me and my body size. I input the data regarding my height, weight and age just as it asked, I held on to the handles and it gave me a reading. I agreed with the reading because I know just about where my BMI is for my size. Then I decided to input my ideal height, weight and age as guest #9, just for grins and giggles. So I put these figures in and held on to the handles. I was thinking that it would error out, or something, because surely the "electrical current" would find me out to be a liar. It didn't. It gave me an ideal BMI and body fat percentage for the data I inputted. This machine is nothing more than a calculator. Don't waste your money. I saw a BMI/fat analyzer at my local grocery store for $7.99. I bet it's the same thing as this one, only without handles.

The key to getting consistent results with this device is to measure under the same hydration conditions. My suggestion: wake up, urinate, and then weigh and body fat analyze yourself using this device. While it's true that this is your most dehydrated state of the day (thus resulting in your lowest possible body fat percentage) at least this way you can track your progress consistently. My body fat percentage goes up like 3% after I've rehydrated myself in the morning (I drink a lot of water).
While I can't testify to its exact accuracy, it definitely gets the trend correct. As I've lost fat (as measured by looking in the mirror, weighing myself and strength gains/maintenance in the gym during weight lifting), the analyzer shows a decrease in % body fat. The device also picked up periods when I've lost muscle (as measured by loss of strength in the gym during weight lifting). It feels pretty accurate at picking up small real changes.
I have a set of calipers, and I find them to be kinda useless because I'm not trained in using them and you can only reach some sites of measurement. The Omron device is much more useful to me than the calipers.

This is the only device I have to measure my body fat so I am not sure how accurate it is, however I can say that the there is sometimes wide variances in what it reads. One day it kept reading 11% body fat. I know I am definately not in that range at all. Most of the time it reads in the 14's which I think is about right. This is a good tool to track decreases in body fat. If you see the number it gives you steadily going down over a time period then you know you are losing body fat. However the number it tells you may not be what your body fat is.

I have owned the Omron HBF-306 Body Fat Analyzer for a few years now and find it a useful monitoring fitness tool, but a question I had when I bought the device now becomes an issue.
The athletic age mode stops at 60 years of age and the Normal age mode ends at 80 years. So the question is what happens if you are still using the analyzer and you are 61+ or 81+.
Does Omron have any adjustment to the analyzer once someone exceeds the programmed age limits?

Used the Omron Body Fat Analyzer then had the calipers done at the gym. The numbers were the same. It is much easier and less time consuming than the calipers. The company this came from was prompt and would get my business again anytime.
