Overview
['The Runstar FG2015-S is a body weight scale built on a tempered glass platform with an LCD readout. It can show results in kilograms or pounds, so it suits households that switch between the two units.', 'Runstar lists a stated resolution of 0.1 kilograms or 0.2 pounds and a maximum capacity of 400 pounds, which covers most adult users. The scale itself weighs about 2.95 pounds, so it is easy to slide out of the way after use.', 'At roughly 150 dollars it sits well above typical bathroom scales, which is the main thing to weigh against its solid build and clean display. As with any scale, it is a tool for tracking your weight trend rather than a medical instrument.']
