Fantastic Scale, Fantastic Company,
By Ken G (Ocoee, FL) - See all my reviews
This review is from: EatSmart Digital Nutrition Scale - Professional Food and Nutrient Calculator
I researched all the available nutrtion scales on the market and decided on the EatSmart. And what a good choice it's been. It's truly a great product and performs exactly as advertised, providing extensive nutritional information that's not available from any other scale. You'll be amazed at the discrepancies when you compare the actual weight of some foods with what's listed on the nutrition information printed on the package. For example, the information printed for spoon-sized shredded wheat is for a one-cup serving (52 grams). If you weigh the cereal, though, 52 grams is a lot closer to being 3/4 of a cup, not a full cup. Same for potato chips, pretzels and other irregularly shaped foods. And regarding the company that makes the scale: The scale that arrived didn't function properly. I e-mailed the company and within 20 minutes got a phone call from the vice president, who had me do some tests and quickly determined that the scale was defective. He said he'd send a replacement immediately. Sure enough, a new scale arrived as promised and it works perfectly. That's customer service. At any rate, I can't say enough good things about the scale. Like me, I'm sure you'll be pleased if you buy one.

EatSmart Digital Nutrition Scale: Good & not so good,
By Mimi (St Paul, MN) - See all my reviews
This review is from: EatSmart Digital Nutrition Scale - Professional Food and Nutrient Calculator
I looked at many digital nutrition scales online before purchasing this one. Having Type I Diabetes and being a "carb" counter, it was time for an update and I kept going back to this one and was looking forward to using it. I thought I wanted all the bells and whistles it has to offer. While I like the general size and design for weighing, especially the ease of the tare feature, from then on it goes downhill for me. Visually, I am having great difficulty and my husband, who has excellent eye sight agrees - it is tough to read the LCD display which is considerably smaller than it appears online. Also, it gives so much information that I have found I'm having to ignore what isn't essential for me and fccus on what information I mostly need - carbs plus calories and fats or protein plus calories and fats, etc. You have to go through a progression of button pushing and data entry to get data beyond calories - i.e. carbs and fats. And, feedback is given via different window "groups" of 4 you have to scroll through to get what you want. It just takes so long my food is getting cold or my family impatient while I'm trying to get the information I need for dosing and recordkeeping. I find myself getting frustrated by the whole method as it is, for me, more laborious than I ever anticipated. Then, there is the option of entering information from the food label - one of the aspects I was especially interested in. Maybe it will get easier. That was a big selling point for me and I find the marketing misleading as I thought once I entered all the information from the nutrition label, it would add it to the memory "up to 99". Well, that is not how it works. It will keep items in its memory for counting for a day or week. But, it doesn't keep those products permanently in its memory that I can figure out. So, it's okay but not as user friendly as I thought it would be from all the positive reviews I read - and I do read them.

Great tool for the kitchen of all people touched by diabetes,

This review is from: EatSmart Digital Nutrition Scale - Professional Food and Nutrient Calculator
The two modes of operation (normal scale and calculate -where it determines the nutrition facts for a food based on the Nutrition Facts on the package) make this one a very versatile food scale.
