5.0 out of 5 stars Handy and Easy, February 10, 2007

By	Sheila R. Raymond (Marysville, WA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I really like this model. When not in use, the bowl turns upside down and pretty much encases the unit. You can go back and forth from grams to ounces with the push of a button.

3.0 out of 5 stars It works but it's a little persnickety..., August 20, 2007

I really can't entirely complain about this item since it ultimately does what it's supposed to do but with an item that has so few functions that need to work properly I was a little dissapointed that the tare/zero button seemed to be rather fickle. It takes about six or seven presses of the button for me to get it to actually zero out otherwise it generally skates above zero enough to throw off my readings. This probably won't matter for most casual kitchen use but I use this to weigh out brewing ingredients and for the sake of consistancy in my homebrewing getting the correct weights is something that I value.

In summary, it's a decent scale and the price was right. Perhaps I'm a little spoiled since I work in a lab and have some really fantastic scales. This model should work for most people's everday use but it isn't the best solution for the hobbiest needing precise measurements.

4.0 out of 5 stars A good and inexpensive scale, March 16, 2007

By	Nichole Zinken "Internet Guru" (Somewhere over the rainbow) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I really like this scale, it's easy to store and not too heavy. It measures perfectly and the bowl on top is a great addition.
