Title: Misadvertised maximum weight capacity.
Product review: This scale has 4 sensors at each of the feet which hook into the main computer; it averages the weights of these scales to determine the users weight however the rigid glass construction does not allow for even distribution of weight among the sensors which causes one or more of them to go over-weight and error out. Below 380 pounds the scale is accurate but over that it craps out. Unless you are perfectly balanced you will not get an accurate reading.I purchased this model to replace a Tanita HD351 which worked up to 460 pounds; I have gone from 550 down to near 400 and have weighted myself on everything from Gym scales to the industrial kind you find in a warehouse to doctors office scales. What makes the Tanita work is the large platform; you place your feet near the center and the metal top distributes the weight evenly amongst the 4 sensors; it's the difference between balancing on a metal ball and a balloon.
