USB Body Mass Scale is the weight management solution for the entire family with memory storage for up to five users. Store the entire family’s daily, weekly or monthly weight and mass measurements to monitor and help keep on track! This easy-to-use health instrument also allows transferring of stored results directly to a USB flash-drive for quick, convenient uploading to computer. Once on computer, the included ION Health Suite software will help further organize and assist in tracking the health progress of the entire family.
