 Good value for an accurate and versatile scale. Sep 17, 2009
By pixels and bits
I've been using this scale for a while now with good results. The things I like about it include the ability to remove the front piece to weigh over-sized objects and that it can handle up to 55 lbs with no problem. It has a relatively small footprint and is extremely easy to use. It also seems to be very accurate. I do wish that the auto shut-off timer were longer as I am forced to turn it back on multiple times during my shipping routine. Battery saving is good in theory but how much energy is wasted when one has to constantly re-boot the machine?
(By the way, this is the same scale as the Weighmax located at listing ID: B001EVS9HA - only with different custom/branded packaging.)

DIGITAL POSTAL SHIPPING +KITCHEN SCALE Apr 28, 2009
By Kay Stout
This is an excellent product and I would definitely recommend this product to anyone. It's not only a postal scale but food scale as well. Both work excellent. Also included with the purchase is an AC Adapter, so many others require you buy this separately.

 Get what you pay for - OK general scale, but with its flaws/quirks Apr 07, 2010
By D. Sostrom
This was a great buy in terms of a low price for a scale that can handle a lot of weight. However, some quirks that annoy me include:
1) the "hold" feature is nice in that a large box can be placed on the scale, you wait a few seconds, then remove it and the weight stays in the window for a while. However, it stays there way too long and the only way to reset it if you are in a hurry to weigh the next item is to turn the scale off and back on again. There should be a button to say "OK< I'm done now, let's move on", but there's not.
2) The accuracy is quite questionable. I ship out a lot of CDs through USPS, and sometimes the window will say "4.0 ounces" when in reality it may be 4.1 oz. Therefore, either my customer gets dinged with a "postage due" collection, or it comes back to me as postage due. I;ve learned to just round up whenever the window says X.0 ounces, just to be safe.
For the money though, there is value in this - particularly when shipping larger parcels.

A great little scale Oct 05, 2009
By J. Robert Faulkner
"Orca17"
I settled on this digital scale after reviewing several on Amazon. Some of the others were too pricey, others had too many dissatisfied customers. This one seemed to have the perfect balance of an affordable cost, a large capacity and few complaints. So far, so good. The memory function is invaluable. The first package I put on it was rather large and weighed almost 20 pounds. When I checked shipping online based upon the weight the scale gave me, it was the exact price I was given at the satellite post office (unfortunately you can't print first class postage at home from the USPS website). I am very satisfied with this purchase. The free AC adapter is a nice bonus - they cost extra with most of the other scales I looked at.

***** DEAD ON ACCURATE EVERY TIME! ***** Jan 04, 2010
By In Memory of W. G. Simms
*
This little scale is perfect if you ship a lot of packages and want to save time by doing your postage online at home.
I have checked mine against the high dollar scales at the post office numerous times and it has been dead on accurate every time!
[gave exact same reading]
TIP: When you are weighing a large item that covers the display, remember that the display will "hold" the reading for about a minute AFTER you remove your item.
