Title: Ankle breaker, dangerous, caveat emptor..
Product review: In spite of very good performance, this model has a fatal flaw. When you step on it, it can very suddenly flip up resulting in a twisted or broken ankle. I would never give this to an elderly person or anyone without quick reflexes. In fact, I would never give this or recommend it to anyone at all. For the do it your selfers out there and those that insist on living dangerously, I would highly recommend attaching a rubber or vinyl self adhesive door bumper on the underside, both sides. Since this is an electronic scale and not mechanical, doing so won't interfere with the performance. If this isn't an option, always step on the middle first and slowly shuffle your feet to the contact pads. I'd also recommend holding on to a safety bar when using this. Better yet, don't buy this at all.
