Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Salter 5-Pound Microtronic Kitchen Scale, WhiteCustomer Review: Yes, a battery hog Summary: 2 Stars
This scale is a battery hog, wrote Jason. Yes it is.
It uses two CR2032 button cells. Each cell is rated at 240 mAh from 3V (new) down to 2V. The scale is poorly designed in that it quits working, and starts flashing the battery icon, while the series voltage is still above 5.36V. If it were properly designed it would work all the way from 6V down to 4V.
I bought new batteries today. They cost $4.89 for the pair.
Customer Review: salter digital scales Summary: 4 Stars
the perfect solution when baking with both u.s. and european receipes as i have learned to convert all measurements to weight and don't have to guess how many teaspoons of yeast to use, for i just do everything in grams. my products consistently turn out as designed and this scales have saved the day for me. the only improvement i can think of would be an on/off switch to enhance battery life. i highly reccomend this product.
Customer Review: Good for everyday use. Summary: 5 Stars
I find we are weighing more now than ever before.
With this handy scale right on the counter, it makes it easy to keep our portions in line.
Great for the teenagers learning how to cook and not being able to tell what the measurement is just by looking.
So far we haven't found anthing we don't like about it.
Would (and probably will) buy again (for gifts).
Customer Review: Good Basic Scale Summary: 4 Stars
I bought this scale for a diet that I was on and it worked great. I since have gone off of the diet, but find I use it more and more for everyday cooking and baking. The only reason why I didn't give it 5 stars is that it is very light weight and I am afraid if I dropped it it would break. That being said the no skid bottom holds it in perfect place on my kitchen counter.
Customer Review: I save enough time to enjoy my meals! Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this because I was spending so much time measuring food and washing the measuring tools that I would have to rush through eating. It is wonderful to make a salad, add my protein, croutons, dressing - all without dirty anything but my salad bowl. It measures both grams and ounces so I can be as accurate as I want to be. A must for dieters and so compact!
