Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

Ideal for use in the kitchen or small office mailroom, the Royal EX-3 digital postal scale offers a number of useful functions in one sleek package. With a maximum weight of 3 pounds, this scale includes a fold-out stand to support oversize envelopes easily. The one-touch tare function allows users to reset the scale to weigh the contents of a bowl or package without including the weight of the container, which can be especially handy in the kitchen. The hold button leaves the weight onscreen after the package has been removed, making the correct reading of weights for oversize packages particularly easy to manage. There are three weight modes on the EX-3--ounces only, pounds and ounces, or grams. Weights are measured in 0.1-ounce or 2-gram increments. A sturdy and replaceable rate chart is included, and updates may be downloaded from the manufacturer's Web site. Royal offers a one-year limited warranty.

1.0 out of 5 stars Should have looked at the reviews..., February 9, 2003

This review is from: Royal eX-3 3-Pound Digital Postal/Kitchen Scale (Office Product)

For a long time I was looking for a scale that measured less than 5 ounces accurately. I thought I found one with the Royal eX-3. When I first got it, it was acting kind of weird. What I mean by this is, when I pressed the power button, nothing would pop up on the screen. So I figured that was because the unit was new. Then I tried to turn the unit off, it wouldn't go off. This scale turns off by itself after 2-3 minutes so I had to wait for it to do that. So I turned it on again, low and behold the 0.0 that is supposed to appear came on the screen. I started weighing stuff and it was excellent. Then I didn't use the scale for a few days, the same thing that was happening to me when I first got it started happening again. UGH! Simply pressing the power button on this unit didn't do the trick. I had to press the power button again but quickly then the 0.0 would appear. This is crazy. Then something else started happening. When I would press the power button, the numbers started going up and up for no reason and there wasn't even anything being weighed on the scale.
This scale is erratic, unpredictable and a total waste of money.
Please take my and everyone else's advice on here and don't buy this scale. It's basically just a poorly made plastic toy.

This review is from: Royal eX-3 3-Pound Digital Postal/Kitchen Scale (Office Product)

Really liked mine for about 2 years until it started to get flaky. Put a new battery in, and was still flaky, in a different way... Called their customer service who said I should buy a new one.
