I recetly gave this kitche scale a one star review ad reading the other reviews of the same level it seems that my complaint was not unsual ie wildly inaccurate weighing.I received a message from the company apologising and offering to replace my set of scales, an offer which I accepted, as i dislike giving low reviews but I really had no choice in this case though I did wonder if I had been sent a dud.New scales arrived and I have used them a lot in the last two days to test them out and make sure they are working and are accurate. I have weighed the ingredients for the same cake I baked before when the weights were off the scale. This time all is well and with other things also.So I am happy to edit my original review which I leave below as it seems to chime with other customers but thank the company for their customer serviceA nice neat kitchen scale bought to replace an old one. Clear instructions etc nothing to complain about. But I soon found that the measurements and weights were wildly out. I was making a sponge cake the other day and it told me I had only put 4 oz butter on the scales when my eyes told me there was much more. I dragged out my old fashioned, large scales which then confirmed my eyes and I had 8 oz butter.Reset scales, went back to the digital and tried again, this time with flour. I put 1lb of flour on the scale as an experiment and it came back as 2 ozs. all other ingredients were also wildly out of balance.The scales were new and so were the batteries which were supplied by the seller.I tested it over and over again with different items and the weight was wrong every single time. Now I may have been unlucky and just got a dud one but it has now been returned and I am back to using my good old well used scales which may not look beautiful and may take up space, but are accurate.

Great price

This is the second Duronic scales I have bought, I have to admit the first are still working well but require flat batteries x2 this new one AA ‘s. The reason I bought replacement standby is very occasionally misbehaves and my husband is “suggesting “ he cleans the “ insides” I don’t want to be left without scales!

First of all, let me just say that I never thought I would be reviewing a kitchen scale. Nevertheless, here I am, and it's simply because this product is so good, it really deserves all the good reviews it can get.This scale has been brilliant so far! Here's why: it is very accurate in its measures (I have weighed all sorts of ingredients for baking purposes, both dry and liquid, and the small scale immediately detects weight changes (even the tiniest amounts!). The other (and rather unexpected) reason why I am so impressed with this scale, is that my other half managed to drench the scale in water by placing wet dishes on top of it. The scale suffered water damage as it would not switch on after the incident, and there were visible air bubbles forming thanks to water-buildup inside of the display screen. Nonetheless, the next day, the scale worked. And it still works brilliantly!Look no further for a great scale at a bargain price. It comes well packaged, is small and easy to stow away, and is perfect for weighing ingredients and parcels alike.Please let me know if you found my review helpful by indicating below. Thanks for reading!

Having struggled by with some traditional type scales for years, with its imperial weights, I needed something more accurate and reliable. Having read the reviews I found this product at a great price and meeting my needs. It arrived promptly in its compact package. It was even smaller than I expected but only aids its easy storage - you could pop it in your cutlery drawer ! Battery life is good with batteries cheap and easily accessible at low cost. put your bowl or any container suitable to hold the item you wish to weigh on the scales then switch them on. The weight of the container is then ignored. You can chose from oz, ml, grms, even mid weighing. Due to their compact size you just need to chose your container to put your ingredients in carefully so you dont end up covering the digital screen showing the weight. display is very clear. scales weigh down to 0.01 of oz / 1grm so they are very accurate. I use them to even weight letters which may be too heavy for the standard 1st class post. I pop them down the side of the cupboard making them easily accessible. They are really great. Just remember, they do switch of automatically after about 30 seconds which is good as it saves the battery, but I dont find it a problem what so ever. cant recommend them enough

Impressed with these scales. No problems after months of use, and they appear to be very accurate. Easy to switch from ml/g/oz, and to zero between additions of ingredients. Simple operation and just need a wipe clean. I have had these for some months and haven't needed to change the batteries yet. My only minor gripe is that they turn themselves off quite quickly, so if you are in the middle of adding an ingredient to a bowl and have to hunt in a cupboard for something, they'll have probably turned off and they'll need turning back on again before adding the new ingredients. Once or twice i've forgotten to hit the 'on' button when this has happened without me realising, and so I've not been able to measure how much has been going in because the scales have been off. My fault, perhaps, but having them stay 'on' for a bit longer before automatic switch off would be useful.
