ASIN‏: ‎B07XZKBSDJ - Zibet Food Scale, 33lb Rechargeable Digital Kitchen Scale, 1g/0.1oz Precise Graduation, Waterproof Stainless Steel and Tempered Glass Surface. Sold by Next LLC and shipped by Amazon. Paid $23.99I ordered this digital kitchen food scale on Nov 6th, 2023 and it was delivered 4 days later on 11/4/23 even though check out provided a 2 day delivery.The previous digital scale I had, I purchased at a BB&B retail store and it lasted over 10 years. It did what I needed it to do but my biggest pet peeve was its weight capacity which was limited to 22 lbs. It made it difficult to measure large volume of ingredients and weigh them all using one bowl because it would always error out. I rely heavily on my digital scale and use it every day multiple times a day. I have an elderly parent who I care for so it makes it easier to prepare his daily meals when I can measure out single serving portions ahead of time and store them in 8oz deli containers for easy access and quick preparation. I also make large batches of meatloaves and meatballs where equal size is important for baking. I then Saran Wrap them individually and use a large Ziploc freezer bag to freeze them.So this Zibet Digital Food Scale has checked most of my boxes and so far, I am very happy with my new digital scale. The simple, compact and flat design can be left on your counter or stored easily in a drawer. It has a 1g/0.1oz graduation and offers 5 measurement you can cycle through to select either g/kg/lb/oz/fl.oz and ml, and I truly use them all. It has a stainless steel base with a tempered glass surface top which has been easy to clean. It claims to be waterproof but I would never recommend putting any digital scale under running water regardless of what the seller claims because you don’t know how good that waterproof seal really is. I Just wipe it down with a kitchen sponge and dry it off with a paper towel. I found that if you don’t dry it off and let it air dry, it leaves behind a smoky film on the tempered surface which is very apparent on the digital display. It was also important that it is USB charging and its primary source of power and battery as its back-up. I also wanted it to use a standard AA or AAA because 3V Lithium coin batteries are expensive and sometimes difficult to find. The USB charging will allow helps to save on the cost for batteries and so far, after one initial USB charge, I haven’t had to recharge it yet and it’s been more than one month using it every day several times a day. The digital display was placed in the fore front of the scale and it does not interfere with my view to read the weight even when using a large bowl or plate. I really like this scale and would recommend it to others. Great buy!

Very accurate scale.

Light, fits in small place for storage and turns off automatically. Weight is great as I need to weight thread.

I've used a lot of food scales over the years. This one is my favorite but has some disadvantages to other scales.I purchased this one specifically for the back light. Other scales would be hard to read where I kept it due to low light and/or glare. Not a problem here. That is well worth it to me.It is quick and accurate which I can say of most (but sadly not all) scales I've had.It doesn't make any beeps. For me, that's a draw back. For others its probably plus. I use scales at every meal, that is to say multiple times a day. I'm not always looking at it, and knowing a button press was registered without looking would be nice.The reason for the loss of a star - button sensitivity. The buttons don't register a press when I think they should. I have to often press a button multiple times to get it to be accepted. Very annoying.

This was shipped from the Troutdale, Oregon Amazon warehouse to Bend, overnight. The packaging is very secure, with two layers of air bubble pack holding the product box securely in place. The product box had the scale laying in a closed cell foam retainer that we will use for storing the scale when it is not in use. There is a blue protective film that must be removed, revealing a blue tempered glass layer. We left the attractive tempered glass layer in place, and only removed the protective film with the !! triangle icon. Apparently, the scale comes in several colors, besides blue.I used my 100g, 50g, 10g analytical weights and found that the balance is spot-on for these larger weights. The instructions say that 2-3g of mass is required for the balance to measure the weight. For example, 1g or 2g gave zero reading, however when the 100g weight was added to the 1g, the result was 101g (1+100). Having the dual power source is a nice feature. The internal LiPO battery is said to fully charge in 2 hrs.This is a very nice product and we would purchase it again if needed.

Great investment easy to use love the "tare" option and being able to switch between different units of measurement

The scale works great. It's level and appears to measure accurately! Digital display is nice and lights up well.The finish is polished and smooth. Comes with USB rechargeable lithium batteries. Nice little food scale.

Easy to use. Big numbers to see
