Pros: - Size is nice, fit easily in pocket - Measure to 0.1g - Seems accurate - Comes with a pouch - As a TARE function - You can select the unit you want to use : g/oz/ozt/dwt/ct - Screen is very readable - Uses 2xAAA batteries (easyier to replace then button cells)
Cons: None that I have found yet.
Bottomline: Very nice scale for a very nice price. Really pleased
Pros: This is a fantastic small compact digital weighing device (scale). It includes a pouch which is nice, seems to help protect it as I have dropped it on my floor and it still works. I use this for many different things such as weighing out postal letters/boxes, weighing food ingredients, pet medication dosing. It is also fun to weigh random things around the house. I have used scales that were specifically sold as "food scales" and this one from dx works the same for a lot less money.
Cons: The cons would be similar as to any small scale, batteries may die quick if they are cheap. When the batteries are running out it sometimes gives different measurements. This should be no big deal if you simply use decent batteries that have power in them.
Other Thoughts: This is a great buy, i bet it would be a challenge to find a comparable product for any cheaper.
Bottomline: Had it for 2+ years and it works just the same as the day i got it.
Pros: I have owned my scale since November 2007, and it has not let me down once. Not only that, its still using the same batteries since install. Ive used it in my kitchen as its great for weighing out spices and the like. Ive used it for precise measurements for my jewelery designs,as anyone that has worked with gold or fine silver knows how careful you have to be when your working with precious metals. And my two younger sons have even used this scale to share out candy so that everybody gets equal shares.
Cons: Not a one.Absolutely nothing I can think of.
Other Thoughts: Its got a funky backlight, my toddler likes to weigh his lego bits just to see the light. So it also doubles as entertainment for the little ones.
Bottomline: Get one, its great.Even if its just to keep the kids amused. Its fabulous in the kitchen. Its great in my design room. And its stopped many arguments about who has the biggest piece of chocolate fudge.
Pros: Good sizeNice little screen with blue backlitCan measure to 0.1gComes with a pouch
Cons: Maybe feels a bit light/cheapUses AAA batteries.
Other Thoughts: Overall a very nice little package. I was expecting much worse so Im very happy with it. Not too sure how accurate it is so far. Did a couple measurements and it seemed ok - will need to test it more.
Bottomline: Definitely recommend to anyone look for a portable digital scale. Im thinking of buying a couple more to leave around, Comes in handy as sometimes I need to weigh light objects.
