Two ninety-eight point six! (n/t) by Phoon2007-03-04 20:56:56
  *throws his scale out the window* by Phoon2007-03-04 21:03:44
    Electronic, I assume? by ag_wyvern 2007-03-04 21:53:59
Ours is wonky that way.

I slide it over by catching the top with my toe (which turns it on at the same time). Take measurement. Let scale turn off, turn back on with a tap, take measurement again: +3kg (just under 7 pounds). Repeat. Same value.

For whatever reason, I need to go through the first reset to get a consistent measurement.

Also... make sure you have the scale in the same location each time you take a measurement. We have a rough tile floor which causes the scale to sit *slightly* differently in different locations, with a corresponding 'wobble' to the measured weight.
