The user-friendly OXO Good Grips Food Scale with Pull-Out Display is perfect for weighing all ingredients. Weigh items directly on the platform, on a plate or in a bowl, and pull the display away from the base to prevent shadowing from large plates and bowls. Accurately measure ingredients when cooking and baking and stick to a diet by weighing portions. An optional backlight makes the display easier to read and a weight indicator shows the capacity left on the scale before maximum capacity is reached. Press the zero button to offset the weight of a container or to set the weight back to zero so you can add additional ingredients. The display features large, easy-to-read numbers which measure in 1/8-ounce and 1-gram increments. The stainless steel platform can be removed for cleaning but no parts are dishwasher safe. The Scale has an 11-pound capacity and 4AAA batteries are included.
Excellent scale (2009-07-02)
Love this scale. The pull-out display is very convenient and I have found it to be very accurate.
Spendy, but worth it (2009-06-15)
I love that this scale takes up hardly any space, however just read that it shouldn't be stored on its side, so that's a drawback. Also, it doesn't always turn on right away; for some reason, we have to push the lb/kg button, then the power button. Otherwise, I love it. No more guessing on what constitutes half a package of pasta! I'm looking forward to using European recipes, too, which measure by weight and not volume.

The scale works great. Easy to clean, easy to use. Very intuitive. I couldn't be happier with it.
Excellent Kitchen Food Scale (2009-06-06)
Excellent Kitchen Food Scale, great size that doesn't take up much counter space, fits in with the decor, and so easy to clean. My husband liked the fact that you can put a bowl on the scale before turning it on and it comes up 0 when turned on, you then add your food to the bowl or plate. We buy Boars Black Forest ham from the deli for lunch meat so guessing how many oz's=slices or an oz of cheese was always a hit and miss. Being able to detach the reading mechanism is helpful too, but we hardly ever detach it as it's set in a well lit place that's easy to read.

Disregard the 1 star review!!! This is an excellent food scale, providing consistent results time after time. The pull out feature is actually helpful when weighing ingriedents in a larger bowl. Something I never considered before. The zero function is quite helpful also. It is compact, so it's easy to store and use. I used to have a Cusinart scale which was larger and in 2 parts and this is so convenient and easy. I appreciate people who take the time to write a review and usually the reviews are fairly evenly weighted, so I was surprised to see one 1 star review stating that the scale gives erratic results. So I weighed and weighed ( 20+ times in a row) a can of food and each time the weight was the same, even when placing the can on different parts of the scale - center, to the sides. I weighed a letter ( 3/8 oz) about 20 times and each time - 3/8 oz! Perhaps this person got a defective scale or it got damaged in shipping somehow. This is one great scale!!
