- It has a plug in option
- Easy to read display (optional blue backlight can be turned off)
- Measures in 0.1g increments, and is extremely easy to use
- The bowl comes in handy to keep the actual scale plate clean and helps protect when weighing possibly magnetized items (such as PC screws)
- The functions make it very simple to pickup on (There are dwt, g, oz, and calibration options to select from - very easy to calibrate)
- Can work with batteries AND/OR house plug, making it very flexible.
- The lid stays connected, ensuring you do not lose it. It also covers the actual scale mechanism when closed, making it more secure and less likely to break if lightly damaged. Simply recalibrate and it should work (Im not suggesting smashing this thing off of a floor and trying to use it, but I like the protection aspect). Great for travel if you are collecting samples in the field or simply watching your dietary intake on a trip/at work.
CON's
- Some may think it is too large. Depending on the use, it might be, but then again, you most likely should be worrying about other hidden items if you are worried about trying to hide this device on you. It is what it is.. a precise kitchen scale. I rather call it a household scale.
- With the top not detaching, you must consider the lid when deploying the scale. It flips backward and must have enough room for it when open.
- It does not come with any calibration equipment, even though they are cheap to purchase... it is a pain when you need to buy an "add-on item" for less than $5, but can't unless you get to the Amazon limit. So it would be nice to have the option.
THOUGHTS
- I think this scale is amazing, and I love the plug function. It takes 4 AA batteries if I remember correctly, and is very easy to use. I also like that it is at least accurate beyond a gram, as I use it for measuring small pieces from PC parts, powders for paint mixtures (such as flake) and mixing correct ratios of powdered chemicals. It has been very reliable and I would recommend it to others over other scales in an instant.
Not true. It is a limited warranty. Call up AWS. My scale broke after 14 months. I had only used it about 5-8 times and had put it away and two weeks ago tried to use it again and it was dead. Since it had a "powerful" warranty, I contacted Amazon who were great on the phone [I love their customer service!] and was told since it wasn't their product and it broke after the 30 days, I would need to contact AWS. However, Amazon issued me spending credit for the shipping to send it back, they called up AWS for me and gave me their number as well....so the product's warranty wasn't as powerful as I thought but Amazon made good on their advertisement.
I think they should change the wording on their description. If this scale breaks, the customer has to pay one way shipping. All that is required is the receipt showing I had it less than 10 years. Thank you Amazon for reimbursing me for the shipping and I am very happy with the results. Thank you AWS for a hassle free return! I sent it back and within a week they sent me a brand new one. All they wanted back was the scale so now I have two bowls :-) My returned scale was tested and sure enough it was dead.
I gave it 5 stars because of customer service from AWS...they were perfect, painless and quick in replacing the unit. If there was a way to give stars for Amazon I would have given Amazon 5 stars as well. I received my new scale today and it works... I actually love this scale because it was very accurate with .1g accuracy. I use it for measuring powder clay materials and require a scale that is accurate to the .1 gram.
I had the same scale before 2012 that I bought in 1999 and it lasted 13 years. Both the one from 1999 and 2012 broke after using the power AC supply. The scale has the option for batteries [included] and I was too lazy to look for the batteries so I used the power cord supplied. I will say it is a learning lesson and even though the new scale has a AC power cord, I would never take a chance and use it. Next time I will just change the batteries.
Thank you AWS for sending me a new scale in a very quick fashion and especially to the rep at Amazon who followed through and called me three times to follow up to see if I had problems returning it and then called two days later to ask if I had problems mailing it. She is planning on calling me soon to see if I received it. She went beyond the call of duty. She is absolutely amazing! They should give her a promotion and a hefty raise. I am very pleased with Amazon.
it is a good scale and if you can get it on sale even better!!

It is small and the 0.1 gram accuracy is great for blueprinting and engine to make sure all the pistons and connecting rods weight the same.
