1st Scale

This is my first scale so I have nothing to compare it to. Very easy setup with the Garmin Connect app. It also communicates very quickly with the app. This gives me a good idea of where I'm heading with my weight & other metrics. I have been weighing myself at night & in the morning to stay consistent with my weigh ins. I feel like it's built decently enough & does look nice. It may be overpriced but it does fit in with the Garmin ecosystem very easy.

Garmin scale

Scale works great except for BMI calculation. I carry more muscle and scale says I am obese. My doctor laughed when I told him what the scale said and told me I would become unhealthy if if went down in weight to a level the scale said was healthy. Need to tweak the BMI numbers or get a better method of determining what is fit versus obese.

Solid Scale with lots of features

The scale is a little bit pricey but overall I am very pleased with the product. It tracks all sorts of features with your weight, BMI, and even the weather! I like to track my trends during my weight loss journey and this scale has been a great part of it.

Good features but finicky

Took multiple attempts to log multiple users. Weight isn't always accurate, can change 3-4 lbs between two weigh-ins. Touch screen isn't as sensitive as other Garmin products. Features connected to watch is great. Seeing extra data is never a bad thing.

Decent Product, Surprisingly Glitchy for Garmin

Been using the S2 for about a month and it seems to be working well. Initially, getting the scale to turn on (wake-up) was a hassle. Reset, replaced batteries, tapped and pressed in several locations, and finally after reading other reviews found a hard tap with the ball of your foot works (usually).

Pain to connect

Overall I like the scale. Setup was a pain, though. I have a decent wi-fi signal in my bathroom, but the scale couldn't pick it up. I moved the scale closer to the router (another room), and things went well. That is, until I moved the scale back into the bathroom. No signal. So...ended up moving my wifi extender closer to the bathroom. I got a signal, but had to factory reset the scale. Finally, it's up and running. After all that, the scale is pretty cool. It knows who is stepping on, based on weight. Could be an issue if 2 people weigh the same? Lots of data that integrates with the Garmin Connect app. I find it works best to weigh in at the same time each day for consistent data.

Underwhelmed for price

Cool looking scale. Neat data. Every morning it’s a battle to wake it up. I tap on the top all over and sometimes it just doesn’t turn on. I have made sure it was fully updated ect. For the price should never have the issue within a month of opening.

Beautiful design works well

I really like that both my wife and I can use the scale and it sends our measurements to our devices and apps automatically. Being myopic and not wearing my glasses in the morning, I enjoy seeing my name show up in big bold easy to read letters as a reassurance that my weight is recorded as sent to my device. When I received the scale I was impressed with the appearance and feel of the scale. The only downside is that the tow tap to activate the scale almost never works. My workaround is to lift and set down the scale with my toe, so not a huge concern.

Great Looking and Functional Scale

I have had a Garmin Index scale since they first came out. The S2 is more user friendly than the original scale. I really like the ease of use since you do the setup with the Garmin Connect App. My fitness tracker also connects to the app so I can see my health statistics all in one spot. I think being a repeat buyer says it all!

Body fat way off

I manually updated the software and entered my stats (per my previous index 1 model) and it still shows an increase of 8% of body fat within one day of difference, which is impossible. I’ve tried to reset it and update many times and the problem wont go away. Garmin please fix this!
