    Any one will do. They all do the same job. (Which is weigh food) Just like bathroom scales. I would rather go for digital than analog though, they are more accurate.

    Just make sure it weighs in ounces and grams and has a tare feature.

    Get one that is digital; has a tare function; has at least a 11 lb. (5kg) maximum limit so you can weigh cooked foods in the pot/pan; and looks good enough to sit out on the counter because you will probably use it for every meal.

    This. Doesn't have to be fancy or expensive. Just needs these few features.

    I bought this one from Target. I like it because it's flat and can hold dishes of many sizes. It looks good on the counter, and it has several measurements.
