Nice Scale!
By MC1976 on Reviewed in the United States on April 7, 2025
My first Eufy P3 worked great! Until it didn't. For some reason one day to the next it said i lost 30 pounds of muscle and gained 10 pounds of fat. I don't think that is humanly possible. After a week of bad results i contact Eufy by chat. The first person i reached said some weight fluctuations are normal, yes true but not by 30 pounds!! That person wanted photos so i mentioned if i get out of this chat i will lose you. They said to just request them when i get reconnected to chat. Im thinking here we go!! Im going to get the good old run around! I got back on the chat and reached someone else. I told them what the previous person said. They told me to hold on a moment while they reconnected me to that other person. Luckily that first person was not available because the new person i was chatting with was amazing! He noticed right away that the scale was bad and said he was going to ship me out a new one and i would have to return the old one so they can run some tests on it. Great! Thank you so much!!!! I was busy at work and didn't have time to return the scale right away so i was a little disappoint not to have my smart scale to weigh myself everyday. I know it sounds crazy to weigh myself everyday but i workout hard everyday and like to see what kind of results my hard working is getting me. 3 days later theres a package at my door and it was my new Eufy scale!!! I ripped it open like a kid at Xmas! I set it up and stepped on it and back in business!! Results were accurate again!! I did ship the back the bad scale but it took me maybe two weeks to find the time to get to the US post office. Sorry for the delay Eufy but thanks again! Now the issue i have with these smart scales. Im 48 years old and in better shape then most guys half my age but this scale says I have the body of an Obese 51 year old LoL, I recently bought a 56 metric scale (different brand) that says that I have a body of an Obese 56 year old. That scale I'm in the process of returning because it works when it wants too! Problem with these scales are BMI. If you are a larger person with a lot of muscle it doesn't care, body fat or muscle it only knows weight vs height. Example Im 5’ 11” 285 pounds on the more muscular side. I work out just about everyday. According to this scale and all other smart scales I am Obese. So if the smart scale is making all its calculations off of BMI then you will not be getting an accurate reading and the scale might actually discourage someone from working out instead assist. My wife hates these scales because of it. I tell her not to take the measurements to heart and use it as a tool to help track any improvements. I will keep shopping around for another 56 metric scale. Eufy if you are in the process of developing a 56 metric scale Im in the market for one!!! I was going to give the Eufy P3 scale 4 stars but their great customer service earned them an additional star!

Don't bother with this one - calibration issues
By Andrew Feist on Reviewed in the United States on May 16, 2025
I've used this scale about 2 months and today have finally given up and will be looking for something else. It's honestly one of the most frustrating pieces of technology I've ever used. When it works, it's a decent scale with good data insights (although some of the BIA-based body measurements are questionable). I appreciate the wifi/bluetooth connectivity, and the app is easy enough to use. However, I don't have time to play around with it in the morning, and it often requires a ton of work every time just to get it functional. I shouldn't need to weigh myself multiple times every single time to get a proper reading. It constantly struggles to maintain proper calibration. If it's moved even slightly on the floor, it'll start reading 30 pounds even if nothing is on top of it. Re-calibrating requires picking it up, removing and reinstalling the batteries, and setting it back on the floor flat before it starts calibrating. If you're not quick enough, it goes back to reading a false weight value forcing you to do the calibration again. When it's recording a false reading, it's nice that it detects it under the "Guest" profile, but this behavior isn't always consistent, so it'll sometimes record a 30 pound reading to my profile. The interface to change a reading's assigned profile on the scale is terrible - it's not clear if you tap or swipe between profiles. Either one either results in it just assigning it to my profile or swiping TWICE (quickly to guest and back to me). Along with the calibration issues, I had issues where it would provide in accurate readings due to my bathroom tile. I had to be careful that the feet weren't touching the grout, as that slight change in floor height would result in calibration issues or false readings. Additionally, in one spot in my bathroom, one of the tiles it was sitting on is slightly unlevel - in this spot the scale was consistently reading 5 pounds lower than in another spot in my bathroom. I pulled out a non-smart scale I had and determined the 5 pound-lower readings were incorrect. A scale intended for home use should not be this sensitive to very small variations in floor height. Additionally, there's not enough sensitivity for it to ready when you're trying to turn it on. The instructions state that you should press your foot in the center and wait for it to read 0.0 before stepping on the scale. I've found that I basically need to stand in the center before it'll turn on, but that's too much pressure because (you guessed it), doing so will cause it to calibrate incorrectly and provide a false reading. Overall, a pretty terrible and frustrating product that I will be replacing. I enjoy the automatic syncing of ratings to the app/Apple Health, but luckily this isn't the only scale on the market that will do that.
