Warning: my new smart scale's body fat reading was way off

I compared it to the DEXA scan I got at my doctor's office last month, and the scale was off by almost 8%. I found this out after checking the manual's fine print about hydration levels. Has anyone else had a specific gadget's health metric be this inaccurate?

Eight percent is a huge difference, that's basically useless data. Makes you wonder why they even bother putting that feature on there. Guess I'll stick to just weighing myself.

Read that bioimpedance scales are notoriously unreliable.
