This is the scale I use. Very reasonable price, accurate, durable. It includes Imperial and metric measurements, a "tare" or zeroing button, and can take a lot of weight and also as little as .5 ounces.

Customer Reviews

Wonderful Product
I bought this scale a few months ago, It's WONDERFUL, very easy to use, really accurate, and the numbers are very easy to read (they are big enough).The only thing that I recomend you is to be careful with the Stainless Steel Platform when you take the scale from the box, because the platform is very sharp and I got my hand hurt (dont worry about it, just be careful). I recomend this to any one. It's worth it.

Response to poor review (and help for other owners)
Just a little insight for those who purchase this product. I was a little hesitant to buy this based on the poor review I read here. Once the product arrived, I was able to replicate the results found by Jay H, in that I could get different weights based on the position of the object I was weighing. Further inspection revealed that the four legs of the flat plate were not equally seated within the scale. After fully seating the top plate (tray), the scale gave weights within .005 lbs regardless of what corner I put it on... plenty accurate for me! Hope this helps!

Kitchen scale
Nice scale, meets my needs. The only thing I didn't like is that it is battery operated and has no power cord with it. This is fine for as often as I use it, but on the other hand, having batteries in it for an extended amount of time I run the risk of them eventually leaking and ruining the scale. But, works great, easy to use,
