Top 5 Best Digital Bathroom Scales
Top 5 Digital Scales
Welcome to GetMojo, we do the research so you don’t have to! In this video, we’re offering our picks for the 5 best digital scales on the market.
Whether you’re hitting the gym and trying to shift some weight, or you’re just curious about how your diet is affecting you, it’s always handy to have a good scale at hand. But not all scales are created equally. So, if you’re in the market for one, we’re here to help you decide which might be best for you. To help you decide, we’ve sifted through numerous website and consumer reviews to present our 5 recommended products. Okay, first up.
The No-Nonsense Option
Greater Goods Digital Bathroom Body Scale
If you want to just hop on and hop off your scale and get an accurate measurement, then this Greater Goods set is ideal. Very affordable, and accurate to within 0.2 pounds, this scale offers a clean, modern-looking, slimline design with a glass top and a backlit display. It also has a maximum weight capacity of up to 400lbs. This is a very solid choice.
The Smart Scale
Fitbit Aria 2
Everything is ‘smart’ nowadays, including scales, with this Fitbit version allowing you to keep track of your weight over time using the Fitbit app. Essentially, this scale records your weight, body fat percentage and lean mass, and then sends that information to an app, so that you can track your progress. The app also allows you to track what food you’re eating and what exercise you’re doing alongside it. A feature we love is that multiple people in a household - up to eight in fact - can use this scale with the accompanying app, and based on your weight, the scale will know who is who.
The Other Smart Scale
Garmin Index Smart Scale
Similar in a lot of ways to Fitbit’s offering, this Garmin model is one of the most popular smart scales on the market. With the use of Wi-Fi, this scale also helps users keep track of important metrics like weight, body mass index, skeletal muscle mass and body fat through a smartphone app. Compared to the Fitbit set, it actually allows for twice as many people to be using it at one time, with up to 16 users permitted. We also like the fact that you can choose between black and white finishes too.
The Portable One
NewlineNY Lightest Step-on Super Mini Travel Bathroom Scale
If you’re a frequent traveller, or you want to use your own scale in the gym, then this travel scale is a great, affordable choice. Measuring just 8.5 inches wide and 5.5 inches long, this is about the same size as a Kindle, so it will easily fit inside a gym bag. It’s pretty basic in its operation, able to switch between units like pounds, kilograms and stones, but it does the basic things really well - and it has an impressive weight capacity of 325 pounds. Plus, there are multiple colors to choose from.
Before we reveal our final pick, here are a few other great products to consider.
Withings Body+ Smart Body Composition Digital Scale
EatSmart Precision Plus Digital Bathroom Scale

The Electro-Mechanical Pick
Ozeri Rev 400 lbs Bathroom Scale
A digital display is great, but for some people, there’s nothing quite like seeing a dial move back and forth on a scale. This set offers a great compromise by offering both digital and analog-style readouts. It’s surprisingly slimline too and offers a weight capacity of 400 pounds. As well as offering the best of both worlds, we think this is probably the best looking scale on today’s list, as it effortlessly mixes classic and new styling.
So which digital scale should you choose? Well, you’ll pay a significant premium for a smart scale. But if you think you’ll make use of its app features, then we’d recommend the Fitbit. However, if you simply want an affordable, does-the-job kind of scale, then either the Greater Goods or Ozeri would be our choice.
