Excellent scale, even for double the money.The tare feature works like most others, but the three real goodies are:... the FOUR MINUTE before auto-cutoff.Not like the Taylor scale I had that cut off after one minute of nonuse.It was always cutting off on me before I was finished with it.
... and NO DEFAULT SCALE It's the same as when you last turned it off (if you were using grams, the next time you turn it on it's still in grams, OR ounces at OFF then it's ounces at ON).Tap the button to change g/oz on the fly.
... AND it holds A FULL ELEVEN pounds (5kg).I put a bag of flour on it, set tare, and scoop out until it reads xx-ounces (virtually impossible with a 6# scale).
Yeah, I was a chef for many years and more interested in utility over aesthetics in my equipment.I buy flour in 5# or 10# bags now instead of 50# or 100#.I used to have to have several scales -- one for portions and and one forweighing things like yeast and salt, and bigger ones for things like flour and meats.Now 11# is sufficient and this is still accurate enough for yeast and salt.
... Okay, so it's plastic instead of yuppie glass and chrome.It's accurate and well designed -- not heavy, temperamental, or hard to clean.It just works.
... Oh, and it doesn't use strange batteries (regular old AA batteries so you don't go into conniptions when you need replacements)
