The technology you get when you buy a home scale is based on the same advanced technology found in our professional body composition analyzers used by doctors, medical centers, professional athletic teams, fitness clubs and personal trainers. And we continue to focus on meeting your needs with more styles, models and more personalized features.

Cleared by the FDA - Tanita monitors have undergone the stringent tests and measures required by the FDA to ensure that our customers receive the highest quality products on the market. Your confidence is our priority.

Proper hydration is essential for life, and so is maintaining a healthy body fat %. Maintaining a healthy body water % and body fat % improves overall health and keeps you feeling energized and operating at peak performance.Tanita's BF-683W Body Fat / Body Water Monitor uses Bioelectric Impedance Analysis (BIA). Low level electrical signal passes freely through the body's fluids contained in muscle tissue, but it encounters difficulty when passing through fat tissue, which contains little water. By using the impedance reading, gender, height, and weight, the scale can quickly and reliably calculate body fat and total body water percentages.

Tanita's BF-680W Body Fat / Body Water Monitor features weight and body fat recall and two-person memory. It provides greater control over monitoring and improving health and fitness, as well as, essential information for you to use while setting goals, for staying healthy and living a more active, vital life.

Tanita's Body Fat / Body Water Monitors use a method of bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA), a highly reliable method of analyzing body composition that can be done at home in a matter of seconds. BIA is based on a person's height, weight and the strength and speed at which a safe, low-level electrical signal passes through the muscle and fat in the body. Electrodes built into the patented "foot-pads" sends the signal through the body.

Body fat monitoring is an essential tool for precisely measuring your body's inner health. Tanita Body Fat Monitors provide vital in-depth information, that allows you to accurately observe the impact of a diet and fitness program.

Do you want to lose weight or improve your total health and fitness? Then a Tanita BF-679W Body Fat / Body Water Monitor is the right addition to your routine. A weight scale alone is not enough. This monitor calculates body fat and body water levels using bioelectric impedance analysis (BIA); sending a safe, low-level electrical signal through the body.

Tanita UM-081 Body Fat / Body Water Monitor uses Bioelectric Impedance Analysis (BIA), the same accurate technology found in our professional body composition analyzers used by doctors, medical centers, professional athletic teams, fitness clubs, and personal trainers. Electrodes in the foot sensor pads send a low, safe signal through the body. The signal passes with less resistance through the fluids contained in muscle tissue, but encounters more resistance when passing through fat tissue, which contains little water. By using the impedance reading, gender, height, and weight, the scale can quickly and reliably calculate body fat and total body water percentages.

Keep tabs on your weight and your body fat with the UM-028 Body Fat Monitor. It has a 1.4" display and a memory for two users. Measures weight in increments of .2 and measures body fat in 1% increments. The auto recognition feature allows you to simply input your user information once, and the scale will automatically recognize you as the appropriate user. 300-pound weight capacity. Uses 4 AA batteries (included).
