Now I Get Incorrect Readings
The media could not be loaded.  UPDATED REVIEW: Things started well but now the scale randomly changes readings by itself (see video). Sometimes by as much as 5grams. I’ve only had it for 5 months. Don’t recommend it at all. What a waste of money.Original Review———I really liked the scale.Awesome scale. No battery issues for me. Make sure auto off is on/active when you get it. I was going to go through the hassle of deactivating the beeping sound but it’s not that annoying to me.

Great scale
I am buying this to replace an Ozeri scale. This one lacks the ability to do milliliters, but aside from that I love this scale so much more. The display is bright and easy to read. Best of all NO "FAKE" BUTTONS! I don't know the term for it, but my old scale had buttons with no real feel; you just put your finger on it and it does its thing. This scales buttons actually press and make a nice tactile click. I hated the "electronic" buttons because half the time the !@#% thing didn't register it.I could do without the beeping, but that is not hard to disable if you have a modicum of handiness. Oh, and I also like how the scale platform is defined rather than those other kitchen scales where the platform and the interface/LCD are in one smooth piece. No question about whether or not something is too close to the controls to not be registering.The only things I wish it had were 1. a larger scale platform and 2. detatchable display. #1 is easily mitigated by putting a larger object on the sale then zeroing it and using the object as the platform. For #2, I want remote display so a large bowl doesn't hide the numbers. Again, that's easily mitigated by putting an object on the platform and zeroing then putting bowl on object. Spaces it out for better visibility. So my complaints are easily mitigated, just would be nice if those features were built in.

Swapped power supply with inconvenient plug orientation in larger & bulky package
I was disappointed to have been sent a bulkier, horizontally aligned power adapter that is not the same as what appears in the product picture. I know which power adapter is supposed to come with the scale because I already have one from a previous purchase of the same scale.This one sent to me has prongs that are rotated 90 degrees (compared to picture). The tail of the plastic plug hangs over adjacent power receptacle due to this change in orientation. So, it can only be plugged into the end of a power strip without covering other plugs.One star due to perception of deceitful product fulfillment.

Makes the best hamburger patty press! Yes, I know it's a scale...
Okay, so I bought this to weigh out food. It works great for that! But one day I was weighing out some hamburger I bought to make into patties and I discovered a great use for the lid.I make 1/3lb hamburger patties but finding a good press for them has been like looking for the Ark of the Covenant - even Indiana Jones struggled with that one!Note: This will work for any size patties.I was looking around the kitchen for the millionth time for something round that I could use as a press when I looked down at the lid for this scale. No, it's not round but....Place a rounded ball of hamburger on a piece of wax paper, cover it with a 2nd piece of paper and then INVERT THE SCALE COVER and place it over the top wax paper sheet.Look closely and you'll see a small circle in the very center of the lid, it may also have a tiny piece of plastic (a little nub) from where it was formed in the die at the factory.Center that little circle on the center of your hamburger patty and press down evenly.Keep pressing until the patty reaches the edges of the lid and voila'! You'd got a perfectly formed patty and it's easily repeatable!!The key is to maintain equal pressure on the lid while pressing down.You can thank me later. :)BTW, great as a scale as well - accurate and the zero function works perfectly.

What sold me and what I love about this machine is a) it will measure in ...
For coffee lovers concerned about the accuracy of .5 gram vs. .1 grams in other machines: I just want to put your mind at rest, because that was the only potential downside of this machine. But I measured and found the average weight of a single bean to be .22 grams, so if you're concerned about precision down to one coffee bean, I guess you're more exacting than me. What sold me and what I love about this machine is a) it will measure in ounces as well as grams (so it can be used for cooking and postal duties), it has an AC adapter if you prefer that over batteries, and the maximum weight is higher than some (4000 grams, 141 ounces, which is over 8 pounds). I am 100% happy with this thing.

Decent Scale after Rocky Start
I originally gave it 1 star since every household item I measured that was supposed to be of a certain weight was off by 20% or so. I dug into the manual and it suggested I needed 4000 grams weight to calibrate. Great, so I need to buy calibration weights just to make this device accurate?Luckily, I came across a blog that suggested using the US mint website and get cent, dime, quarter and dollar coins, since they are made to exacting standards. The scale has a lag, but it was fairly accurate, let's say off by 1-2%, as opposed to 20% on packaged goods (my error was not to factor in the weight of the container or packaging, as the weight on most products references only the content).I made pour over coffee, and it works great, except for the annoying sound whenever you press any button.If not for the lag, and if there was an easier way to calibrate without purchasing 4000 grams (4 kilograms) calibration weight, I'd give it 5 stars.For 28 bucks, it's a decent scale for making coffee, but I won't use it to sell the family jewels.
