The absolute most reliable way to measure your bodyfat is to have it done using water immersion. It costs money, but is pinpoint accurate. The second best way is to use bodyfat calipers and do the 7 point skinfold test. Electrical measurements are totally unreliable and inaccurate. Those scales with the bodyfat % measurement are worthless. Hope that helps.
By the way, you can buy calipers very cheap (around $10-$15) online or at your local health store. Hope that helps.
