Anyone using Garmin Index Smart Scales?

Am tempted to buy some, but wondered if anyone had any comments about accuracy, connectivity etc. Also do you find the data useful?

I'm a Venu 2/ Connect user already if that's relevant.

Thank you.

Hi fellow Venu 2 user!

DH got some with a voucher from work he had earlier in the year.
They’re just fancy scales, in my view!
It can sense which user you are when you step on, once you’ve paired it with your devices. Sends info straight through which saves a job doing it manually.
The body composition stuff is interesting I guess, depends if that’s something you’re tracking.
It also tells you the temperature outside at the time. Which is… weird.
They’re fine but I don’t know that I would have bothered had we not had the voucher. DH likes the extra info but he’s a bit more into the breakdown of things.
Hope that’s of use!

Thank you @Cryingbutstilltrying ! I'm not sure we'd really use all the extra data, once the novelty had worn off, but it does intrigue me.

As for the weather.. well how bizarre lol

Good to know it works though.. I wondered if it really did work as well with Connect as it sounds.
