Food Scale Recommend?

RaggedyAnnazon

So I need to break down and buy a food scale. I had one once, but it was all plastic and the marker moved too easily and I wicked hated it. I'm hoping to spend no more than 25 dollars, and preferably a digital model. I've found some on amazon for very reasonable, but would like some recommendations on what to look for or which one to get.

Thank you!

Hi

I started my journey with the scale type you do not like. A plastic one that I got at the supermarket for 5 $. It has been working well for me and I still used it.

I realized I needed a better quality scale for pastries and baking goods. I found a german Soehnle digital scale for 27 $ at Williams Sonoma outlets. It works very well. I only use it for pastry preparation though.

Good luck in your healthy journey

Definitely get something with a tare function and different units of measurement. I've had an Ozeri for about a year and a half that's worked great. Got a Taylor that I've been using at work for a couple months that works well also.

I found one at Bed Bath and Beyond, a Biggest Loser brand that met everything. I plan on getting it, but if anyones heard anything bad about it please let me know.

I have a Ozeri digital kitchen scale I got from amazon for about $15... Cheap but works great.

I got a cheap one from Walmart and it has lbs, oz, grams and kg. The bowl also measures liquids, but mine came broken and I was too excited to return it so I just threw it out.
