Food Scale?

jendra11339

I am interested in buying a food scale and I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions to which ones are worth the money. I looked at target.com and they either seem to be too expensive $40+ or had bad reviews.

Thanks in advance!

I bought this one http://www.kohls.com/upgrade/webstore/product_page.jsp?PRODUCT<>prd_id=845524892616826&amp;pfx=pfx_shopcompare&amp;cid=shopping10&amp;mr:referralID=9233b704-c23b-11e0-be22-001b2166becc and I love it. It WAS $40, but I had a 30 percent off coupon and $20 Kohls cash. You can probably find similar ones for much cheaper. I like that it has both lbs/kg and the display pulls out so I can put my plate on the surface and still see the weight

I have the My Weigh KD8000 Digital Scale. It's very accurate, has tare, lbs., lbs.oz, kg, grams, and baker's math/percentage (I'm a pastry chef, so this is a fantastic option). The surface is large, it sits off the counter by about 3 inches or so which helps when using large plates/bowls. The capacity is over 17 pounds.

The LCD screen is backlit, and battery life is great. You can buy an optional AC adapter, but don't bother. It also has programmable auto-shut off and spill protective covers for the keypad. Here are the specs:

It's available on Amazon for $38 with free shipping:
