Amit: I had a huge expectation with "mayo tape" that a person can take his own measurement but I still don't feel it shows accurate reading after the measurement is taken because as soon as i release the tape's other end then it kind of goes inside the main box, hence giving an error margin of several inches.Hence if you want to take your measurement accurately with this then you've to keep it tied to your body and hence it makes it as difficult as the normal tape.

I have these body tape and Fat Caliper for arond 3 years. I bought these, when I started going to gym. I think these are the inexpensive tools out there to get accurate measurements.
The Fat Caliper gives you accurate fat %, provided you know how to perform the measurement. I have the digital fat % monitor as well. The tests results on both varies by a very little margin. The key is to use the caliper at the exact same place of the skin fold every time, to see progress over time.
Durability: After about a year of use, the caliper lock got loose and does not stay in place but it still gets the work done.
The MyoTape is simple retracting plastic tape. The end has a notch attached to it that attaches to the ratchet box. This provides a great help measuring biceps, forearms, thighs and calves. The tape clicks every 3/4 inchs.
Durability: The notch attached to the end of the tape came off after 3 months of use. I guess, I was new to bodybuilding and obsessed with taking measurements. However, I remove the tape from the rachet and use it as a regular tape.
P.S - Though the tape and fat caliper are made of cheap plastic but will get the work...

I just started the Slow Carb Diet from Tim Ferris' book, The Four Hour Body, and needed something to help me track my body. The tape measure is as simple as can be, and I'm happy to report that I'm using less and less of it each time I measure myself ;)
I have a little while to go before I can start using the fat calipers, but will try to update this review more when I use them.
This is a great combo at a great price. If you're serious about losing weight, you need to measure things, because what gets measured, gets done, and this set is perfect for that!

This tape is easy to use and makes taking body measurements so much more accurate. I used to struggle with holding the tape and wonder whether I was lining it up the same as the last time. When you are working to lose, every 1/8th of an inch seems to count for something!
I got a similar device with my scale, but it was poor quality, this one is much better and I use it often.

I'll be honest -- I got this because it was pretty cheap.
So I did not have lofty aspirations. I'm always amused by people that spend a couple of bucks and expect a product to change the world.
It looks like cheap plastic in the photo, and that's exactly what it is.
But cheap plastic aside, it's pretty functional. I use the tape to measure myself, which is pretty straightforward, but the caliper I'm not sure I'm using it right -- although there are instructions.
If you want a serious, heavy-duty product, then you will have to invest in a serious price and possibly the personal trainer to guide you to use it efficiently as well.
For my purposes, which is sporadic use whenever I remember, it's ideal.
P.S.... The tape is also useful and portable for other purposes. I used it when I was shopping for my HDTV to make sure it would fit the dimensions of the shelf space in my room. Always good to have a multi-functional device :)

C Melby: These are a great way to evaluate your progress. Are they absolutely accurate? Not likely. The difference in how you use them is likely to change from day to day regardless of how consistent you try to be. And evaluating your body fat percentage is an excersize is guessing.
That being said, they do shine in showing differences over time. When you see your belly fat measurement go from 15mm to 8 mm, and you can deffinitely see the same results in the mirror, there's a sense of "I must be doing something right".
The Body Tape makes it so much easier to measure body parts (biceps, thighs, waist, chest, shoulder, etc.). Measuring the growth or reduction can help you determine if you're losing fat and building muscle. Because if you're doing both, you won't necessarily see a difference in the weight scale.
Overall, great tools for quantifying change over time. And in time you'll probably be able to get a good idea of your body fat percentage +/-
