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 Ovutek VWS650-BUS is a body weight scale built on a tempered glass platform with an LED display that reads digital weight. Its blue finish gives it a slightly different look from the usual black or silver scales.', 'The headline spec is a 600 pound maximum capacity, well above the 400 pound ceiling on most bathroom scales, paired with a stated 0.1 pound resolution. The scale itself weighs about 5 pounds, which is on the heavier, more substantial side.', 'At around 40 dollars it stays in the budget range while offering that extra capacity, which is a useful combination for heavier users or shared households. Remember that a home scale follows your weight trend and is not a clinical device.']

Frequently asked questions
How much weight can the Ovutek VWS650-BUS hold?
Ovutek lists a maximum capacity of 600 pounds, well above the 400 pound ceiling on most bathroom scales. That makes it a strong choice if you want extra headroom.
Is the scale heavy or hard to store?
At about 5 pounds it is heavier than most scales, which gives it a substantial feel but makes it a bit less convenient to lift and tuck away. It still sits on a standard tempered glass platform.
Does it track body composition?
The listing describes a digital weight readout and does not mention body composition features. If you want body fat or muscle estimates, look at a model that specifically lists them.
