So my scale came and it seems to be touchy about my counters just aren’t flat enough. Has anyone had this problem? It worked perfectly the first couple times I used it. Maybe I should return it for an analog. If you have one do you like it?

I've had this one for years, and have never had any problems.

Same one I use.

Oooh, food scale envy; I like that form factor.

This is the one I bought back in 2016, does the job.

Nope. Black hehe

Actually its black for maybe few seconds right after I wash / dry it. Anytime after that it will pick up anything from dust to fingerprints to basically anything that come near it haha

Purple does the same thing. Protein powder is the worst.

Guys I’m laughing at myself! I just got home from work and was fixing my snack and fiddling with the scale and expressed my frustration with my boyfriend and he said restart it and I said “ I’m trying it keeps doing this!” (-0 —- 8) and he said, “no, like restart it, take the batteries out” it worked!

My love hate relationship with scales: I’m ok when it comes to weigh the food I eat. Not so much when I put myself on one
