Exactly what we needed
Needed a scale to help us keep track of serving sizes, because we are calorie counters. I hate when packages say a serving is 3 oz- c'mon who knows what that is? :) well, now I know. The best part is the zero out function. You can put your plate on the scale, then zero it, and measure your food. It's exactly what we needed!

Love it. Glad I finally bought it.
This is a great scale. Lived in Europe, the scale I brought home finally died after 20 years. Tried to get by doing my cooking by volume only, finally couldn't stand it, shopped around a lot and got this. A dream come true, so easy to use, large to small amount, tares so you can zero out the weight again and add the next ingredient to the bowl. Awesome! Now it is Pinewood Derby time and I'm going to weigh the cub scout race car exactly and get a full-weight advantage! Yes!

Great Scale
I guess I didn't put the batteries in correctly the first time - or the batteries that come with it are no good...- but once it was up and running, this scale has already proven a useful addition to my kitchen/cooking. Having the ability to switch from standard to metric is helpful, and it's easy to wipe down. The pullout feature is useful - I mostly use my scale to portion meat before wrapping in foil to freeze- when the foil hangs over the screen, just pull it out! Great buy.

great scale
Bought this scale for chocolate making. Works great easy to use and clean up is simple. We have had it for about six months now and no issues.

great product
I love this scale! I got here 2 years ago from Germany and was very frustrated that I had to convert the measurements of all my recipies and they still didn't come out the way I was used to. No problem anymore with this scale, love the style, easy to clean and makes baking so much more enjoyable...

Excellent all around
This scale is great. Does exactly what a scale should no more no less.
It`s very acurate measures down to 1g. The pull out display turned out to be quite useful. Easily cleaned because the platter comes off. Tare funtion works great. It`s small compact size makes it easy to store in a small kitchen. It has changed the way I bake, using mass is much more accurate than using volume. It also helps conceptualize what a portion size really is.
I would reccomend you run out and buy one of these.

Excellent purchase!
I've been needing one of these for a long time and finally got around to it - I'm so glad I bought this one! Baking by weighed ingredients gives a more accurate recipe/finished product. I recently have started home bread baking, and weighing my dough for perfect loaves is a cinch with this digital scale! The tare feature is unbelievably handy, and I love being able to switch from metric to empirical measurements with ease. The pull-out display is genius and very handy when using large bowls that would otherwise obscure display visibility. This is a very user-friendly product and very easy to use; I only did a cursory glance at the small user manual before I began using. I highly recommend this!

GREAT TARE FEATURE
I love the tare feature. I also love that it weighs up to 6 pounds. I use it all the time.

Must Have!
I had been looking for a food scale for months - and finally found exactly what I wanted in this product! It's perfect for large or small quantities as it breaks down into 1/8th oz. I love the taring feature so that I can measure into the bowl or pan directly. This has been a great addition to my kitchen!

A must have!!
I have always had an inexpensive kitchen scale and used it occasionally. Recently, my German mother-in-law shared some treasured family recipes that contained ingredient measurements by weight rather than volume. Husband and I spent a long time converting the measurements before I realized that measuring by weight was much easier and more accurate. That's how I wound up with this scale and I don't know what I did without it! I use it nearly every day now.
It is super easy to use and the "zero" function is awesome for zeroing out the weight of whatever container you're using or before you add another ingredient to the container.
I highly recommend this first-class product!
