The weight fluctuates, but you'll get a good enough reading.

so I'm able to get an accurate reading (if the are not still the numbers will changes constantly)

even so, we get consistent and accurate reading.

It is spot on for an almost perfect estimate even though they jump around I have to bribe them with a treat to keep them still enough to get a decent reading

Any minor movement causes the reading to go bonkers for a while

It was always a little off (about a pound), but that could be attributed to the way my weight was distributed while I was trying to push the button to "freeze" the reading.

and they sit long enough to get an accurate reading

As long as you can keep your pet still for 5-10 seconds you can get an accurate reading, but they really need to be completely still

It helps that she is so willing that it makes it easy for me to get a good reading.

You will be unable to get an accurate reading so if you are monitoring for medical reasons this will not help you.

The reading itself is consistent when getting them on and off a couple of times

so it is difficult to get a good reading with an animal that doesn't sit or stand still

I have large breed dogs which was still a little small for them to comfortably stand still on, but I was able to have them sit and get an accurate reading.

Plus hold the button sucks because your reaching toward the dog which makes the dog move and ruins the reading.

If you find your pet is moving around too much, you can put your crate on the scale and zero the scale out; then put your pet in the crate to get an accurate reading.

It is very "twitchy" and difficult to get a good reading, even when using it for a cat that you can hold completely still

Very important to press the hold button to get a good reading because the scale is a bit sensitive.

The cat will find the treat, and while eating it will hold still long enough for you to get a stable reading ot the cat's weight

Took extra training to get my dogs to sit on it correctly to get a good reading.

The weight display does not stay on long enough to get a proper reading and 50 gram increments is far too much

My pup is now 23 inches at the withers and weighs 60 lbs and has no problem sitting on the scale to obtain a reliable reading

It does not work as good as we would

It is also misleading as it is actually VERY SLIPPERY

It is a hard plastic with raised dots and still slick as all get out, freaking out my dogs (9 of them)
