According to our personal scale expert
The Inventum PW720BG is made for people who want to know all there is to know about their bodies. This scale measures (almost) everything. If you want to know your fat percentage, muscle mass, hydration level, bone mass, the Inventum PW720BG will tell you. The clearly legible LCD display shows your weight. The scale can immediately recognize who you are when stepping onto it, because it can 'remember' 8 people.
Note: using a scale with body analysis may lead to health risks for certain people such as pregnant women, children, or people that use medical electronic devices. Before use, check the manual for the safety measures and to see whether the scale is suitable for you.Body analysis | ||

At first glance, the Inventum PW720BG looks quite solid. It is nice and flat and is very stable on its non-slip studs. The keys lie below the surface and operate by touch. That makes it easy to clean. The weighing surface is tempered glass and has safe rounded corners. At the bottom is a button with which you can set the desired weight unit (kg, lb or st). The display has beautiful blue backlit characters.
The scale switches on automatically when you step on it, and then switches off automatically. What is very nice is that the scale (after you have created profiles for you and any family members) recognizes who is on it by weight. That saves you manually selecting your profile every time. Of course, if there are several profiles with approximately the same weight, you still have to select manually. It is also nice that the results are repeated on the display three times after the body analysis, so that you have time to write them down. The scale is very user-friendly and entering your data (gender, age, height, active or not) to create a profile is very simple.
The Inventum PW720BG indicates a lower weight than my old scale, but does so fairly consistently. Of course I don't know which of the two scales is right. The Inventum PW720BG also gives very different results of the body analysis than my old scale. Again, of course, I don't know which of the two scales is closest to the truth, but my old scale was consistent. Unfortunately, the Inventum PW720BG does not. When I have the Inventum perform a body analysis ten times in a row, it shows ten times a different result for fat, muscle and moisture percentage. The differences can even be 1.7%. It is striking that sometimes even the bone mass can differ by 100 or 200 grams. Of course the Inventum PW720BG is not intended for professional use and the results are purely indicative, but that also applies to my old scales.
This is a nice scale for those who want to weigh themselves weekly or less often, but for those who want to weigh themselves daily and keep track of everything accurately, I would not recommend the Inventum PW720BG because it is not very accurate, which makes the results unreliable.

This scale is very easy to use. Once you have entered your personal details (age, size, etc.) you can immediately have him calculate a complete analysis of fat, bone and muscle mass. This is very fast and the result is very accurate (I have made the comparison with the results of a recent doctor's examination).

The Iventum turns out to be a real cat in the bag!!! *The design: is sleek, but the scale can not be in the bathroom because it is not allowed in a humid environment. In addition, the silver-colored ring immediately deflates after the first weighing and you can no longer get it "clean", i.e. without stains. *Then the weightings: the only consequence is the display of bone mass.
-The various measurements of fat, water content, muscle mass and bone are really ridiculously inaccurate and inconsistent. Because the reading is not easy, I weighed and "measured" several times in succession at THE SAME TIME AND UNDER THE SAME CONDITIONS, whereby the weight varied, but especially the measurements of fat content, muscle mass and moisture content. Since I noticed this, I have repeated this at other times with the same inconsistencies as a result.
In fact, this is of no use to you if you purchase this scale to get started with it seriously. My 45 year old conventional scale is miles above this quality! Waste of money.
