Tool and tape work as intended. ignore the provided bodyfat chart.
I think the tape measure starts at 2 because its supposed to clip into the other side of the tape after you wrap it around your belly/waist. The space in between the two slots is about two inches so it makes sense. Disregard those other reviews about it. They just didnt understand why its designed like that.
The body fat chart is complete nonsense though. I measured myself three times and calculated it online with several different calculators and methods and got 18%bf. The chart they provide told me im 29% 😂

The plastic measuring tool is extremely lightweight and honestly a little flimsy. It does work as intended and will give you a measurement but it does not feel very sturdy in your hands. The handle that is used to press down can flex quite a bit and it could produce inaccuracies in measurements if pressed in too much. I would definitely use this to get ballpark measurements rather than highly accurate data. Overall, I like that this was pretty affordable and came with a retractable tape measure and information chart. I would have like to see an improvement in quality, but at this price point it's an okay deal. I don't expect longevity from this product.
Update: on closer inspection of the tape measure, the tape measure starts at 2 inches instead of 0 inches. I think this is a defect in production and would be cautious when ordering for yourself.

I bought this caliper to track my workout progress. I had to break it in, but it works okay. When I first tried it, the result said I was at the lean end of the "ideal" range.
Gentle reader, I assure you I am not.
Once I had used the caliper a couple of times, it gave me a more reasonable result. I think it still tells me I'm a bit leaner than I am, but as long as it gives me consistent readings it will be useful to track changes.
The caliper is straightforward and easy to use. Based on my reading, electronic meters for body fat are less accurate and much more expensive. The device with the tape measure is a little harder to use without a helper, but it's manageable.
