What's the best way to measure body fat at home?

For someone wanting to check body fat every couple days at home, what's the most reliable method?

Calipers. For the cost, they're surprisingly accurate. The only question mark is your consistency in how you use them.

Any recommended calipers? fat calipers - Google Product Search

I know nothing about them and hate to get a pair that don't work at all.... Does one need to spend a few hundred dollars to get a decent pair?

All you'll need... and for about $15. Even comes with the percentage conversion chart. Easy to use too. You'll see what I mean about using them consistently... just by altering my grip slightly, I can add/subtract 2%. But, once you got the hang of it, piece of cake.
