Food scale HELP!

aeloine

I have this super adorable bamboo scale from Walmart. $19, has both empirical and metric measurements and switches from grams to kgs and from oz to lbs automatically.

I think that your budget is going to be affected pretty much only by MAX weight you want on the scale. Mine only goes up to 11 pounds, but that's all that I need. I have a floor scale if I need to weigh anything over 11lbs.

This one is $13, stainless steel, 11 lbs max, and "professional" grade digital scale.

I honestly think that scales have been around for so long, and that weights are so standardized, it's really not going to matter too much which one you go with for anything other than max weight.

I have this one:

$9.99 delivered in two days.

I tested it with a measuring cup. Put the empty cup on and pressed Tare to zero it and then weighed a few different measures of water and they were all accurate. A lot of them use one of a handful of chips that do weight sensing and they are extremely accurate.

I like the OXO they have a pull out display so you can see it when you have bigger dishes on it. . They come in 5lb 11 lb and i think 23 not sure. I have the 11 and i love it for weighing full crock pots and pans for recipes.
