It depends on the scale, but most scales accurately measure somewhere between 300 and 400 pounds. The really cheap ($10) scale will measure closer to 300 pounds accurately, while scales running around $25 will measure accurately to about 400 pounds.

Are bathroom scales really accurate about a person s weight and if not then what can you use to measure your progress?
Bathroom scales are very accurate. The same scale will show the correct reading day after day, no matter what. There is no better way to measure progress than using a bathroom scale. If the scale reads "120" the first week and "120" the second week the weight standing on it is exactly the same both weeks. It will be correct every time it is used. Doctors scales, on the other hand are very bad because they get used so much (10 or twenty times Every day), so the doctors scale will not give the same number as your bathroom scale. Trust your scale what is says is what it is.

When bathroom scale shows 1 kg is it mass or weight?
Weight. Your scale measures how much force your body exerts on it, relative to the gravity on Earth. If you took your bathroom scale and used it on the Moon, it would show that you weigh a lot less! Weight. As a scale works on the principle of measuring force, and weight is composed of force acting on a mass, it should properly say Newton, not Kilogram. However, we are not accustomed to using Newtons in ordinary use, so when a scale reports a Kilogram, what it really is reporting is the equivalent to 1 kg (of mass) operating under 1 g of gravity (thus, 1 scale-reported "kilogram" = 9.8 N) The English system actually gets it right here (for a change), in that a scale registers Pounds (which are the English equivalent of Newtons, and a measure of force, not mass).
