Well, apparently it's been almost 8 years since I bought this thing. I just replaced the batteries, don't think I've done so previously but maybe once (I don't use it but a couple times a week, with long stretches of "not at all"); the expiration date on the outgoing batteries indicate's they're around that old. It still works fine. Sensitive enough to respond to a single noodle being added to a bowl.
The one thing that has literally never worked is the battery indicator on the display. Just says empty even with a brand new set of Duracells.
There is a newer model of this item:

Real life review of the kitchenaid glass surface digital scale
Mark Volzer
I bought this scale years ago, but I still use it EVERY day. Still the best scale of all that I've encountered. I previously owned a Salter-made one was totally inaccurate and have used a bunch of other scales in friends' kitchens, all of which were either thoughtlessly considered or were inaccurate as well. This OXO scale is accurate up to about 2 grams—sometimes it oscillates between grams, but it shouldn't be that big of a deal unless you're like, measuring out precious stones or something. I usually calibrate and check the scale using my husband's ring, which is 8 grams according to the jewelry store we bought it from, to check that the scale is still accurate. To this date, the scale still reads the ring as being 8 grams.Love the pull-out option of this scale should you place a larger mixing bowl atop it. The lighting option is also wonderful, but I've probably used it once or twice in all these years I've had this scale. If you leave something on it for a long time, the scale will turn off, but if you turn it back on, it'll still display the weight that was last recorded. DO NOTE that, if you add additional weight while it's off, it won't document that weight. I've run into the problem of putting extra weight onto the scale RIGHT as it turned off, knocking off the original measurement. I found the best way to keep the scale on while you're waiting to add more weight to it is to press between the unit of measurement.I'm attaching pics of my scale of many years of daily use. Still looks great, despite the superficial scratches on the stainless-steel surface. I'm not bothered by it.
