 Exactly what I was looking for! November 3, 2009
R. Desir (Boston, MA)
I received this scale just last week, and I am happy to report that it is everything I expected. I was sick of spending money on expensive digital (inconsistent) models, that stopped working after only a year or so of use. This unit provides consistent readings at eye level. It was simple to complete assembly of the two main pieces shipped in the box, and was simple to balance (and rebalance as necessary if the scale is moved).
 Reliable with easy setup August 6, 2009

Scale arrived quickly and setup was very easy.
Setup:
1. unwrap two parts
2. Connect two parts using 6 large screws
3. Attach hook on the bottom - Done
I've had the scale about a week and it is reliable and consistant.

I was tired of the uncertainty of several electronic scales I used, and wanted to get back to something that was mechanical and certain. And made in the USA. Thus the Detecto 337. I purchased it through Amazon.com (and their agent, Wholesale Point). When I got it, I failed to examine closely one aspect of the assembly, and as a result, mangled the "draft rod" ... both Detecto (thanks, Charlie!) and Wholesale Point (thanks, Lisa!) were very responsive, and in relatively short order I received a new part and got the scale assembled. One neat thing I discovered is that on the Detecto.com website they have a video from the "How it is Made" TV series, and you can actually view a #337 being manufactured and calibrated. And, it is made in Web City MO ... outstanding product!!
Assembly problem March 13, 2008

This product comes in 2 parts held together with 4 screws. Unfortunately, one of the screw holes was not threaded and I had to tap it out with a 1/4-20 tap. I suppose someone got distracted on the assembly line. I don't think many people would have a tap set on hand to fix this themselves. I suppose I would have simply had to leave one screw off if I didn't cut the threads in the hole. Once I got it together, it worked fine. I prefer digital scales, but home digital scales just don't seem to last more than 6 months. This balance bar scale should last forever.
Great scale September 6, 2007

The seller of this item ships for free and they are quite fast getting them out the door. I was worried about installation and the column seemed slightly flimsy at first, but assembly was a snap in spite of not reading the directions very careful, and it seems quite sturdy once assembled.
The accuracy itself seems to be great. Like all balances, the accuracy is phenomenal. No stepping on and off and getting wildly different results like with most scales I have had.
Definitely worth the price if you are serious about watching your weight.
