This scale works perfectly for what I needed it for. It is pretty small and not too thick which is great for fitting into a small drawer, or cabinet where there isn’t much space.
It’s a great looking scale, and works how it should. The buttons are easy to press and the screen is easy to read. This is a pretty basic scale, there isn’t anything fancy about it, but it’s perfect if that’s what you’re looking for. I just use it to measure my baby’s formula and it works great for that.
It only measures to the whole number, so if you want something with decimals, you’d be better with another scale. If you want something that works and is easy to use, this product is for you.

For an $11.49 kitchen scale that includes batteries, this is a solid buy. It’s been accurate for all my baking needs, and I haven’t had any issues with measurements. My desserts have turned out great because of its precision, so in terms of functionality, it does what it’s supposed to do.
That being said, the automatic timeout is frustrating. It shuts off after about two minutes, which is way too short if you’re following a recipe, grabbing another ingredient, or referring to a video. This is especially annoying if you’ve just tared your bowl and are in the middle of measuring. Once it turns off, you have to start over, which can slow things down and get really frustrating.
All in all, if you move quickly in the kitchen, this scale is a great deal. It’s affordable, accurate, and even comes with batteries, which was a nice bonus. But if you take your time measuring ingredients and don’t want to deal with the constant shutoff, you might want to look for a scale with a longer auto-off period.

This simple tool makes baking so much more accurate! This scale is sleek looking, simple to operate and works great. It seems to be quite sensitive to the smallest amounts and likely accurate since my bread has come out wonderful!
I never realized how much extra flour I was using by using measuring cups. It’s so much more accurate and convenient to measure flour: Turn on the scale, press “unit” until “g” shows, place the bowl, press “tare” and add the ingredient until you reach your desired weight. I also had no idea how much 80g of cilantro could be, since it is sold by the bunch not weight – and it was very easy to use this scale to find out.
Loving it. Great value, really does the trick, no need for a more fancy scale here!

This is my first time using a kitchen scale, and this one really is a very simple yet very effective machine. It takes really very little space, and the thing I loved about it is that the most is you can keep a plate on top of it and measure as you put the food in

Works amazingly well. Super simple to use, has a very sleek look, and is super great quality for the price. I’ve been using it for both weighing packages and weighing food and it’s been great for both!
