The Detecto Model 437/439 (the 439 has the height measuring rod)balance beam scale is virtually idential to what you are used toseeing in a doctor's office. I need to check the next time I'm inmy doctor's office but the 437/439 may be of lighter construction(but perfectly adequate for the typical home environment).In the several weeks that I have had the 439 (I ordered the Model437 but the box contained the Model 439) I have been impressed at : a.) How repeatable the measurements are b.) How the scale's calibration stays the same even when the scale is moved.The scale arrived in a very rugged cardboard box and the onlyassembly was to attach the vertical upright portion of thescale to the floor assembly (that you stand on).I think that there could be a slight weakness in the design inthe way the two pieces attach as there might be a problem withmetal fatigue if the scale was dragged around a lot by it'svertical member.The floor assembly has two metal 'tabs' that project up and itis over those 'tabs' that the vertical member is placed and thensecured with four screws on the back and two on the front. Thevertical member exhibits good stiffness when exposed to front-backpressure but it shows less resistance to side-to-side pressuresbecause there are no securing elements in those directions.Long-term I may buy some small metal angle-brackets and mount themto the left and right of the vertical member to provide support inthat plane (but I may never get around to it because in my householdthe scale will not be abused and so will probably never have aproblem).My overall evaluation of the product is that it's a bargain for thecouple of hundred dollars that I paid for mine through NorthShoreSupply (and the people there seem like nice folks).

Having been on a diet over the last nine weeks and after being weighed weekly at the clinic I was using, I decided that I needed an accurate scale. It became obvious that it was an absolute necessity to continue the diet and to control my weight. My previous experience has been with standard bathroom scales either electronic or spring. They all have their limitations from being downright inaccurate to a pain to keep in batteries. Since my doctor had been weighing me on a balance beam scale and that the scale could accurately measure within a quarter pound I decided that was what I needed. After doing some research and just happening on a How It's Made program featuring a Detecto 437 I came to Amazon and purchased one. It came as a complete suprise to me that a balance beam scale was very reasonable priced for what you get. The assembly was a breese and the calibration was fast and easy. When I stepped on the scale it was within a half pound of the scale I had been on at the doctor's the previous day. I was sold! If you need an accurate and reliable sale look no further than the 437. And it is made in the USA!

After having numerous store-bought scales, always thinking, Geez, I don't weigh that much or WOW,I lost a few,only to find out the scale was the culprit. The adjusting wheel would only "Zero" the dial, and not correct the problem. The Detecto "physicians scale"Detecto 437 Balance Beam Doctor/Physician Scale, 400 lbs, Made in the USAis just what I was looking for. After an easy assembly and adjustment I checked the accuracy by putting various weights on the platform, from 25#s to 250#s and it was "right on". I wish I would have bought this sooner, and it's "Made in the USA" !!!!
