Does anyone know how the new detailed scales are...

I am getting one of the new bathroom scales for Christmas... it is suppose to measure body weight, body fat, hydration, bone mass and muscle mass.. I was just wondering if any of you have one or one that is similar and if so do they work good or do you like it.... 

I am not sure how it will work or what it will say with all this extra skin.. will it read it as fat.. I know it is not muscle so I am not sure how it will read it.. I am looking forward to using the scale and hoping it will help me to know when I am getting dehydrated and when I am gaining fat and/or when I am gaining muscle..

Sure hope they work.. Hubby was excited to buy me one.. and I am excited and can hardly wait till Christmas to try it..

Any info would be appreciated...

Huggs..

I don't think it will read the extra skin as fat or muscles. From what I understand (when I bought mine) for the body fat % is that it sends a really low electrical current and measures the resistance, and can determine % from that. The other categories i'm not too sure but probably something similar(and I can't really vouch for where I got this info...lol).

I haven't used mine much - and just generally use it as a regular scale.

Thanks for the info.. I am going to try to study up on them with as much as I can find on internet.. but I thought OH was the best place to start for info...
I appreciate the responce and I am glad it wont read skin as fat... now if I could just figure out how for it not to read skin as weight. lol...
