Very strong glass on these, ours has had a few accidents but never broke.
But they only tell you the Pounds.
No display of Stones.
Its just a niggle but Yes I know you can convert.

Seem pretty accurate when I compare to a 'health point' that I use at work.

I've had these for a few years with no issues - good deal at £10
'I notice the number of negative reviews and I have some sympathy with these reviews: the main problem with the Salter 9141 is that it requires an absolutely flat and stable surface to work on. Bathroom lino will not, in my experience, work. Any surface that has even slight compression - and lino does have compression movement if only by a mm or so - will not work accurately. A wooden floor is ideal but, even then, it needs to be a floor without floorboard grooves.
If you do not have a flat and compression free floor surface then it's best to pass on this scale despite the tempting price. Four plastic feet for use on a carpet are included in the box but, having tested the feet, I have to say the results (although improved) are far from accurate. If however you do have a flat and compression free floor surface then this scale is definitely worth checking out.'

Not trying to be negative, but how does it read on body fat and body water? Is it just an estimate based on weight or is there some kind of sensor?

There are metal sensors you stand on, therefore you have to be barefoot. A small current is put through your body which works out the body fat and water retention.
Hope this helps.

Should still be in stock in stores as there was lots available in the Derby branch.
