   Bought to replace my old scales which had an encounter with a stone kitchen floor and didn’t survive.
   These arrived in no time and are great , easy to use , easy to read and appear to be accurate. Really good scales especially for the price.

   Bought this to replace an ageing set of scales that had a loose “foot” and became unreliable. I researched this model carefully and it seemed that its design wouldn’t suffer the same instability of the previous scale.

   I have to say I’m very impressed. From the all-metal rounded feel, to the nice clear display and the accuracy, this is a very impressive little set of kitchen scales.

   The scales themselves are designed to weigh much larger pots. The weigh plate on the top protrudes a little higher than the surroundings, so you CAN put on a much larger pot. This is great because the scales themselves are really compact, so they fit into a drawer or cupboard easily.

   The scales have rounded corners, so they don’t snag cables of kitchen appliances while you’re cooking, and they slide in and out of cluttered drawers easily.

   The display is very bright and clear. Very easy to read even in dimmer surroundings, with clear indications of the units and what modes are in operation.

   Due to the sealed construction, it’s pretty easy to clean. Just wipe it down, paying attention to the slight lip at the border or the weigh plate which might catch a little sticky flour or dough. I wouldn’t run it under a tap, though, just use a moistened cloth.

   The main impressive thing about this is its accuracy. Most scales vary a lot in their estimations. Trying to weigh 7g of yeast can yield anywhere from 5g to 10g, vastly changing the consistency of the bread. To get around this you normally need to reset the scales and re-weigh over and over to get an ‘average’ value. Not so with these. You pour on a professionally weighed sachet of yeast, and the display yields 7g. You pour it off and pour it back on. 7g. every time, 7g. If you use it to weigh envelopes or parcels before mailing, then even heavier weights are consistent and accurate. Take the package off and replace it, you get the exact same value to the gram that you got before. Remarkable!

   In all, I’d say these are the best kitchen scales we’ve had. A classic design, excellent accuracy and they look great.

   I wanted a simple to use and compact digital weighing scales for my kitchen and this is that. Has an on and off button and a button to change the units. Just place your own bowl on the scale and then turn it on and place anything you want to weigh into the bowl. Accurate and simple to use. Looks stylish and easy to wipe clean. Doesn’t use up much battery as I have used it so many times with the same battery for years. Recommend.
