They work great. I have had mine over two years now and it still works great. The best part of the scale is that I can place my container on the scale and then re-set it to zero. That way I can tell the weight of what is in the bowl, not the bowl and the ingredients together. Rating: 5 / 5 I have one of these scales and I have purchased two as gifts. They work great.

I just got it in the mail and had to try it out. I love it. The ability to light the display screen when needed and the pull out digital display unit make it a unique scale. Well worth the price. Especially for my husband, who rarely uses a measuring cup, but weighs everything on a kitchen scale. He loves to bake. He even has a second cousin from Norway, who is a world class chief. We have an older model scale, by Tanita. While it works fine, it doesn't include any of the features I just mentioned that make this scale the gem that it is.

They both had the same problem. When I was weighing something out gradually, like vegetables that I slice up bit by bit, the display would turn off after a while. It shouldn't do that, because there were only a few seconds delay between putting things on the scale. <br />But worse, I would press a key to try to get the weight back, and the scale would come back with a weight of 0! Rather than saving the weight as it's supposed to. It didn't matter which key I pressed, the same thing would happen. <br />Were the batteries low? It should give me a message about low batteries. I didn't try it with my own new batteries, rather than the ones that came with it. Rating: 1 / 5 I bought this scale – twice. They both had the same problem.

I have been looking for a scale that will weigh in grams and ounces for weighing out beads and findings, or very small amounts of spices and foods. <br /> <br />This scale is very thin, the pull-out display works great, and it it easy to store. <br /> <br />Big Deal. <br /> <br />I mean, this scale is so horrible that I could not BELIEVE that everyone that reviewed this never had a problem with this scale. <br /> <br />I got out beads and tried to weigh one gram of beads. I weighed the same exact beads literally over and over about 60 times and only three times did I get the same exact weight. And that was only when the weight got up into the 10 gm range. The rest of the time the weight was wildly erratic. <br /> <br />1 gram of beads went from three small seed beads to 230 beads. It was almost inconceivable that a scale of this large price range could be so horrible to use. I have never been so disappointed in a purchase before based upon such positive reviews. <br /> <br />If I could give this NO STARS I would. <br /> <br />I am returning this piece of junk and still upset that it is so defective. I don't trust another scale again from this company after this. <br /> <br />The Tare function is erratic as well- one minute it zeros out and then the next minute it is in the negative and then it suddenly goes into the positive- all without being touched, knocked or altered in any way. <br /> <br />There has to be another scale out there for this price range that will actually be accurate and weigh things. I have visions of crying women weighing in at Weight Watchers not able to figure out how they could gain weight when they carefully weighed EVERYTHING they ate. <br /> <br />*shakes head* <br /> <br />I am really unhappy with this whole thing. <br /> <br /> Rating: 1 / 5 I was so excited when I read the reviews of the Oxo Good Grips Food Scale with Pull-Out Display here on Amazon.

There has to be another scale out there for this price range that will actually be accurate and weigh things. I have visions of crying women weighing in at Weight Watchers not able to figure out how they could gain weight when they carefully weighed EVERYTHING they ate.

*shakes head*

I am really unhappy with this whole thing.
