I've seen a calibration tip of turning on the scale and letting it turn off on it's own 2-3 times before actually weighing yourself if you have to move it before use, so maybe that would help. Also making sure that you are putting it in the same place each time, as uneven flooring could be a part of the problem.\r\n\r\n[This is the scale I use.](https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00F3J9G1W/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8\u0026amp;psc=1) It's inexpensive and seems accurate.
