Customer Reviews

Perfectly functional, highly accurate scale
This scale functions perfectly, is easy to read, reaches a reading quickly, switches readily to the desired graduation or to tare with just one or a few button pushes, and is EXTREMELY accurate--I tested it against a laboratory balance. Its error was under 0.5 gram at 250 grams, or less than 0.2%. Two things to watch for: 1. The instructions say it must be stored horizontally with nothing on it, so it takes up more space than I had planned; 2. The auto-off occurs after one minute of no activity, which is sometimes inconveniently quick. However, you can simply tap on it to keep it going for another minute. Just a note--the CR2032 batteries are a one of the very common lithium coin cells and you can find them quite cheaply on eBay, often with free shipping. I haven't had the scale long enough to determine what the battery life might be.

Kintrex Scale is a delight to use
The Kintrex scale more than meets my expectations. I work as a cook and use a kitchen scale daily. I was wondering how the electronic scale would handle tare weights? Couldn't be simpler. Just place the container on the scale before turning it on and the scale subtracts the container weight and zeroes itself automatically. Switching from grams to pounds/ounces is equally easy. At this price, the Kintrex scale is an incredible bargain.

Works well.
I have had it for about a month and used it 3-4 times. I like it so far.

What I like:
* It is skinny and is about the the size of a book. I actually keep it with my cookbooks. (You have to be somewhat careful because the touch sensitive buttons could turn the unit on if the button area pushes against another book).

* It has a seamless glass plate on top. It makes it very easy to clean when you spill flour or anything that can get in crevices.

* The tare function is very nice.

* Accurate for my use (mostly baking)

What I don't like:
* The auto off feature is a bit annoying. After I tare a bowl and start adding stuff in it, the unit turns off in a minute or so if there is no activity. So you have to finish weighing before it turns off. If you don't, then you lose all the tare setup. Now you have to dump out the contents, tare again and start adding the ingredients. I hope there is a way to overcome this annoyance. I tried calling their customer service one day and got a voicemail. Didn't leave a message. I haven't called back to see if there is a workaround.
