by Christine (Scottsdale, AZ) 1 review Very necessary tool for diabetics when eating out! Love that we can zero out conveniently to measure many items quickly - (very important for a hungry child!) The small size is also ideal for travel. Agree that there can be trouble with the batteries - adjusting the prongs tighter helps to keep them in place...
by Kerén (San Antonio, TX) 1 review Due to dietary considerations, I need to be able to weigh out portions of food even when eating out. This little scale has really helped take the guesswork out of my meals which can be extremely stressful. Don't let the pictures fool you, the scale can handle up to about 250g which is more than enough for the average serving of food.
by Janet (Houston, TX) 1 review I like the portability, but it's too small for my purposes. It's hard to see the numbers when I have something on it that overlaps.
by Eric-Brandon (Cooper City, FL) 1 review This little scale does just what it says it'll do and does it well. You can weigh directly on the scale pad (for lack of a better term) itself and if an item is too large/messy/unwieldy for this method you can use the cover as a tray to help get an accurate measurement. I've not had any problems with this scale using it in this manner, and it gets added points for truly being portable (can definitely fit it in your pocket if there is no other option)and having a relatively sleek design that doesn't leave you hesitant to use it while dining in public. All in all this is a good purchase.
