Very flexible nutritional scale,

This review is from: Escali Cibo Nutritional Scale (Kitchen)
This nutritional scale is a very easy way to measure carbohydrates (for diabetics) and other nutrition information from a wide variety of foods. The scale "zeros" out a plate (or other food), then you weigh the food, enter a code associated with that food, select the nutritional information desired, and read off the results. The booklet is very sturdy and wipes clean. Foods are sorted alphabetically, which makes them very easy to find. The booklet includes 999 foods, including both individual ingredients (e.g., milk, raw apple, white bread) and prepared foods (e.g., blueberry muffins, french fries, pizza). This is very useful when eating at a restaurant, eating prepared foods with no nutritional lables, and when you're in a hurry. Most foods we wanted were either listed or a similar food was listed. I compared the scale's estimates with those from a booklet and package nutrition, and found these estimates quite accurate. The scale is very easy to carry with you in a bag: about 2" tall and 9" diameter.
We bought this scale about a year and three months ago. It worked very well for about a year. Then, the nutrition and weight readings started degrading. These values are now very inaccurate, to the point of being useless. Low bateries does the same thing, and is not obvious (i.e., the display does not indicate low batteries). Mind you, we used this scale every day, and took it with us to numerous locations, and probably dropped it; so our scale got heavy use for one year before breaking. The competing digital nutrition scale I've examined list only raw ingredients for their 999 codes, which is only useful when cooking from scratch at home. While I wish my Escali scale lasted longer, I was satisfied enough with its performance to buy a replacement.

No Custom Foods,

This review is from: Escali Cibo Nutritional Scale (Kitchen)
This seems like an overall good scale but as far as I can see, it doesn't allow for inputing custom foods. Most others allow 99 foods to be memorized. I checked out the online manual and the manufactuer website and didn't see this feature listed. If I am wrong please let me know because this is the only reason I did not go with this scale.

I was recently diagnosed with Gestational Diabetes. This scale has made my life so much easier while trying to deal with this pregnancy complication. It works as advertised , I am so glad that we made this purchase.
