Has anyone invested in any weight scales they track body composition, % fat, visceral fat, lean muscle mass etc

I am seeing a lot of ads for Hume body pod (scale), and their comparison to DEXA body scan accuracy but reviews are mixed.

What about going for a DEXA scan ? Is it BS ? I’ve been thinking about doing it to track progress from working out. Mostly, I want to see my % of visceral fat .

DEXA is not BS but the machine needs constant and correct calibration in order to produce an accurate estimate. I have seen the results 2 of my friends whose estimates were over 5% off, one too high and the other too low, done with the same machine on the same day. I've also seen several examples on the internet which were inaccurate.

I have been interested in these for a very long time and accurate measurements other than weight has always been in question. Many articles and reviews suggest looking at the trend rather than the number itself. I recently bought a Taylor model at Costco as I needed a scale anyway. For the first two months I logged my stats every Monday morning and the numbers were very consistent. So now I have a base line and look at how my fat and muscle mass % fluctuate, are they going up or down?

Those are semi accurate. Weight alone isn't enough to indicate health since BMI is useless. At least these take into consideration your muscle mass, water, fat, etc.

After much reading and research and speaking to a friend who has a Hume body scale, I realize that these scales are gadgets and not an accurate measure of body fat or visceral fat.
