Need to buy a new scale -- recommendations?

I have been struggling with my weight creeping up (and up) since my late 30s (darn that metabolism change!), and would really like to buy a decent digital scale for once. I'd love to find one in the $15-$20 range, if that's even possible, but really would like an accurate, reliable one. Suggestions?

 

OH! And it cannot be the kind that has you stand on it in bare feet so that it can also measure BMI (or whatever it's doing). One family member has an electrical implant that would interfere, and I want one that everyone can use.

 

Thanks so much!

We bought the Weight Watchers one.

It's glass or plastic or something. It is light green

and looks like a thin slab of glass, so it's pretty. You just

tap it, then when it reads 00000 you stand on it

and read your weight.

It is excellent. No frills, just weight. It is sturdy

and looks good.

I don't know how much it cost but it can't have

been much -- DH bought it and he wouldn't have

spent much on it.

I looked it up. I think it's this one:

I bought this one last summer, the Eatsmart Precision Premium:

It doesn't give you your BMI, but you can stand on it without tapping it first. It measures your weight in .2 pound increments. It has good reviews on Amazon. I like mine and have had no problems with it.
