1 / 7RENPHO R-MSD02 Bathroom Scale, 550 lb Capacity
RENPHO R-MSD02 is a high-capacity bathroom scale with an extra-wide platform, backlit LCD and three selectable weight units. Its listed maximum is 249.48 kg, while the feature description also rounds capacity to 250 kg, so the exact limit is inconsistent in the listing.

What to know before buying
Listing details to confirm
Capacity details conflict: the title says 550 lb, the feature text claims 550 lb/250 kg, and the technical field lists 249.48 kg. Accuracy descriptions are also inconsistent, with +/- 0.05lb listed separately from increments of 0.1lb/0.05kg and an item highlight claiming 0.05lb. The display is called LCD in the details and backlit LCD in the feature text, but described as LED in an item highlight. Check the selected listing for the exact capacity, graduation and display description. Use only on a hard, flat floor, not carpet or soft surfaces.
