New 600 Gram Digital Lab Scale Chemical Balance 0.01 Ounce Opinions - The large steel platform and durable, clear plastic expansion tray are the perfect size for weighing things like science specimen, lab chemicals (powders, liquids, oils, acids, flakes), scrap jewelry, coins & coin rolls, crystals, gemstones & more! The Ounce mode is great for postal shipments. The Grain mode is commonly used for weighing archery arrows and gunpowder for reloading. The Carat mode is great to weigh loose, rough or cut, gemstones & other lapidary materials. This electronic pocket scale is perfect for virtually any small item you can think of, and has been used within the home as well as by professionals. The Tare button allows you to reset the scale to 0. The easily washable, clear plastic cover protects the scale's platform and doubles as an expansion tray when needed. The bright blue, high-contrast LCD display makes it very easy to read in any setting.


Cons Review
Misleading photo and low quality equipment . I bought this scale because it looked like it was more accurate than others in the price range. Unfortunately, I didn't notice that this one listed ounces and the others listed grams. It is a .1 gram scale like the others.

Although pictured with a calibration weight, it does not come with one. The description doesn't list one, but I was still a bit surprised. This is made worse by the fact that the directions require that you have a calibration weight to set up the scale. So, I'm stuck using the factory calibration and hoping for the best. The calibration issue is made even worse by the fact that it "uncalibrates" itself if you pick it up. You can pick it up and set it back down, and the empty scale may read 3.8 grams. Right now, I'm simply taring it each time to bring it back to 0.0.

Finally, the directions said nothing about how to open the display. It looked to me like it slid out. So, I slid it out--and broke the mechanism. You are supposed to push on the side for the display to pop out. I'll probably remove the spring and turn it into a sliding display since it won't stay shut from where I opened it.

In sum, this scale is no more accurate than the others, would cost more if I added in the price of the calibration weight, comes with poor instructions, and is unable to hold its calibration with even minor handling. I plan to keep it simply because I don't want to bother with shipping it back and only need it for some very basic high school chemistry experiments and the occasional weighing of a letter. But, I wouldn't count on it for anything related to jewelry, etc.
Excellent little digital scale . Very pleased with this digital scale. It seems very accurate. It's intuitive and seems durable. Easy and accurate to tare.
