It has many virtues. It's accurate. It can weigh in grams, ounces or pounds+ounces at the push of a button and can switch between them while weighing. It has a large, easy to read LCD display. It can weigh up to 11 pounds. It has a generous auto-shutoff that resets its timer if the weight changes, so it will never cut off in the middle of weighing something. It can work with negative weight, so you can zero the scale with a container full of something and then remove the amount you want. It can measure to the nearest 0.05 ounce, so if you want 2 3/4 ounces, you can get 2.75 instead of 2.6 or 2.7 ounces like many other food scales. It runs on ordinary AA batteries and you can use rechargeables if you like. It is quite durable. Mine is 3 years old and going strong.
I see that some folks are saying that you have to use small plates on the scale's platform so as not to block the readout, but I find that it's very easy to use a dinner plate and just slide it back until I can see the LCD. The Escali's weighing platform is large enough that the plate won't topple over. Another complaint I see here is that it's hard to turn off. That's "user error," I think. You turn it off by pressing and HOLDING the on/off button for a couple of seconds. It will turn off. However, if you've just zeroed the scale a second ago by pressing briefly on the on/off and then try this procedure, it won't. I think that's where the confusion comes from.
The issue described in the number one review concerning the scale automatically resetting its zero-point if you add very small increments of weight very slowly after setting it to zero is correct. If I "tare" the scale and then keep adding one popcorn kernel every few seconds, I can sneak several grams of them on to the scale without it registering a weight change. In practice I've never found this to be a problem. Once the weight is non-zero, this no longer occurs. So, if you wanted to weigh out, say, 25 grams of popcorn, you would begin by pouring 10 or 15 grams worth on to the scale to start, and from there, you're fine. You can then add one kernel at a time (if you are very patient) and you'll eventually get to a completely accurate 25 grams.
It cleans up well, but you can't wash it in the sink. It isn't waterproof and if you run water on the thing it will get into the electronics and it won't turn on anymore. However, I did this once and found that if I just let it sit and dry out for a few days, it came back to life, as good as always!
Dieting is hard. The Escali is not. Highly recommended.
The device is very simple. It's also very lightweight. It comes with two Duracell AA batteries that you pop into the battery compartment in the back. That's all the setup it requires. There are two buttons: An on/tare/off button, and a g/oz button (to shift between grams or ounces). You can put a plate/ bowl etc. on the platform (which is the size of a small saucer) and then press the "on/tare/off" button, and it will be set to zero; you can then add food on the plate and will give you only the food's weight. You can press the button each time you want to reset it to zero and measure a new ingredients separately. You have to hold the button for several seconds for it to turn off, but it does auto-shut off after a couple of minutes.
The "grams/ oz" button allows you to switch between grams, total ounces, or lbs + ounces (for example, 17 ounces would be displayed as 1 lb 1 oz.) It also remembers your previous setting; if you place it on "ounces" and turn it off, it will turn on displaying ounces.
The scale has a precision of 1 or two grams. When I placed a nickel on it, it displayed the proper 5 grams; 2 nickels yielded 10 grams. However, sometimes it seems to waver between displays, but only by a gram or two (for example, one time it couldn't decide between 6 or 7 grams). Also, a quarter coin is 5.67 grams, and the display read 5 grams. This may be a problem for the stricter dieters, but I really doubt it would make a difference in most cases.
The biggest problem (for me) is the small platform; if you place a plate or similar container on the platform, it will obscure the reading on the display. This can be remedied by placing the plate further back on the platform, so long as it doesn't fall off. Also, if the platform were bigger, it follows that the scale would be bigger, and take up more valuable counter space.
Also--and I don't know if this is true for all digital scales--don't place this near a microwave, as the reading will be way off. I was quite shocked when weighing something, and the display of numbers was going haywire. I finally realized the microwave was on, and moved it to a place nearby; the display was fine again. Again, this may be simple common knowledge, but in case you didn't know, now you do!
Overall, this is a great, affordable kitchen scale which I would recommend to anybody.
