Sometimes the folks at Detecto don't manufacture a scale until
an order for one is placed. For that reason, it can sometimes take
2 to 3 weeks for your order of a Detecto product to arrive.
If ya need to know before ordering
exactly how long your order will take,
contact us.
I guess that's the price ya pay for getting that Detecto quality!

You can set this waist high scale to automatically turn off after your choice of up to nine minutes of inactivity, or to stay on until ya turn it off yourself. You can also program the 8437S to go to sleep if ya want to save power, but don't want the scale to shut all the way down.
Alphanumeric KeypadThis waist scale uses the Detecto MV1 MedVue indicator for weighing. This indicator has an alphanumeric keypad for entering patient ids, height and pre-tare weights.
BMI (Body Mass Index) FeatureThe 8437S can also tell you your BMI number.

Hold FeatureWith this cool feature you can weigh, press the "LOCK/RELEASE" key, and step off the scale. After you step off, the weight reading will remain on the display. This can come in handy for recording weight readings.
