- It's beauty, BUT
It's a beautiful looking scale. I only wish that was easier to switch between lbs/ounces and grams. With my older digital scale (different brand) there was an easy to access button on the display panel. You simply pressed the button and the unit converted the weight. However, with this unit you have to take the back panel off, take a small screwdriver and move the calibration dial. Not so great if your not the only one that is going to use the scale.

- Great scale, but it turns itself off automatically.
This scale is easy to use and measures accurately. I've had this scale for several weeks now and use it for baking/cooking.

The only thing I didn't like about this scale is that I was measuring some honey into a bowl. I had the honey in a bowl sitting on the scale while I was trying to calculate my measurement in ounces. When I return to continue where I left off (only a minute) the scale automaticlaly shut off. This caused me to remeasure the honey by emptying the bowl and starting all over...this scale will shut itself off if there is a period of inactivity.

Other than that, everything about this scale is perfect. I've been using it for baking and I like the fact that I don't need to use a lot of measuring spoons and measuring cups, leveling, packing, etc. I just weight each ingredient into a large bowl, one ingredient at a time and the same recipe comes out perfect everytime. This method is so much faster and more accurate.

- The widget that I didn't know I needed.
I never thought that I needed this scale, but love it! I like that it has a larger weight capacity, 11lbs and I will purchase several more for gifts. A must for foodies.
