Popularity1.7/5
150 owner reviews, fewer than most models here
The overall score is owner satisfaction weighted by how many reviews back it, so a high rating from few reviews counts for less. The bars below show where this model stands against the other home health monitors: bathroom scales, blood pressure monitors, pregnancy and ovulation tests, thermometers, body composition monitors, stethoscopes, glucose monitors and pulse oximeters we track in this category on price, popularity and size. Context, not marks against it, and our read of the data, not a lab test.
Overview
['The Urby SCALE-Plus is designed around a 660 pound capacity, one of the highest in this group. It uses a stainless steel platform and an LCD display, with accuracy listed as plus or minus 0.5 percent rather than a fixed fraction of a pound.', 'Stainless steel construction sets it apart from the glass and plastic builds common at this price, and it suggests a focus on durability. The measurement type is listed as pounds, so the emphasis is on a clear, straightforward weight reading.', 'There is no smart syncing or body fat estimate here, just weight on a high capacity platform. If your priority is range and a sturdy surface, this fits. For any health related questions, a healthcare professional remains the right resource.']

Performance notes
Urby lists the SCALE-Plus with an LCD display, weight readings in pounds, a stainless steel build, and a 660 pound capacity. Accuracy is given as plus or minus 0.5 percent, which means the tolerance scales with the reading rather than staying fixed. Bodyweight is noted as a feature. These figures reflect the manufacturer's listing.
What buyers say
At 4.2 stars across about 150 ratings, response is generally positive but from a smaller sample. That count is enough to show a trend rather than a fluke, though a lower score and modest base mean it is worth reading recent reviews before deciding.

Frequently asked questions
What is the maximum capacity of the Urby SCALE-Plus?
Urby lists a 660 pound maximum, which is among the highest in this category. That makes it a candidate when standard 400 pound scales feel too limited.
How is its accuracy described?
The listing gives accuracy as plus or minus 0.5 percent rather than a fixed fraction of a pound. With a percentage based figure, the absolute margin in pounds increases as the displayed weight rises.
Does it track body fat or connect to an app?
No. It is described as a weight scale with a bodyweight feature and no body composition or app connectivity. Choose a body composition scale if you want those extra metrics.
