Hoffen personal and smart body scales
Hoffen's personal scales weigh up to 180 kg. The Hoffen HO-18 weighing scale for human reads in 100 g steps with high precision strain gauge sensors and a 73 x 28 mm backlit LCD, and costs ₹649–₹699. Its black model with a blue display has a 28 x 28 cm top of 5 mm glass. The Hoffen HO-27 is the lowest-priced at ₹549, and the HO-29 has the widest top, a contoured 30 x 30 cm of 6 mm glass, for ₹899. The HO-18, HO-27 and HO-29 belong to the Hoffen HO series, a Legal Metrology approved model in accuracy class III; the approved 180 kg model has Min 1 kg and e = 50 g.
Hoffen's smart body scales add readings beyond weight and send them to a phone app:
- The Hoffen HO-9 shows 25+ body metrics in an app for ₹699.
- The Hoffen HO-18 App reads 15+ body measurements through 4 metal electrodes and sends them to the free FitDays app for ₹799.
- The Hoffen HO-19 gives 14 body measurements in the free FitDays app for ₹899.
- The Hoffen HO-36 gives 14 body measurements and shows weight in 50 g steps on a colour VA screen for ₹1,499.
- The Hoffen HO-45 body composition scale weighs in 50 g steps and gives 16 readings including heart rate, which takes about 15 seconds, for ₹2,499.
Body fat, muscle and water figures from any smart scale are estimates. A 2021 study of three smart scales in JMIR mHealth and uHealth found their weights within a kilogram of a DEXA scan, while all three underestimated body fat. BMI is a simple sum: the World Health Organization defines it as weight in kilograms divided by height in metres squared. Don't use the body fat function if you have a pacemaker or another implanted electronic device, or if you are pregnant; weighing yourself is fine.
For readings you can compare, NHS England advises weighing at the same time of day, preferably in the morning, on a firm, level floor, with the same scale each time. The full Hoffen and Venus line-up is under smart weighing scale.
Hoffen kitchen and coffee scales
Hoffen kitchen scales weigh in 1 g steps and have a tare key that clears the weight of a bowl. The Hoffen KS-601 digital kitchen scale weighs up to 5 kg on black tempered glass, switches between nine units including ml and milk, turns itself off after 3 minutes, and costs ₹599.

Weigh before you pack the last items, because the limit depends on the airline. IATA states that checked baggage allowances vary by airline and route, that international guidelines recommend no checked bag over 23 kg, and that 32 kg is the maximum for a single bag in many regions.
