Review on Ohaus Stainless Overhead Mechanical Balance by Patrick Matin

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Poor quality in tests, measurements and inspections

I am disappointed with the quality of this scale. Maybe I expected more from Ohaus products and maybe it's just a sign of our times, but the control department must have been asleep when it was finished. I have understood. Products today are mostly made of plastic, and there are quite a few of these scales. Add in the poor alignment issues and attention to detail, I have to wonder how accurate the scale will be a year from now. It all started with a simple sticker. If you can't do the little things right, then why should I believe that everything else should be right? What worries me the most is the balance display. As you can see in the picture, nothing is square. Yes, everything will be fine if I take all measurements from the same position, but I don't need it. Not for money. I bought it to top up but am sending it to the brewery. I'd rather ruin a beer than a bullet. I would give it four stars but this scale is average at best.

Pros
  • Tests, measurements and inspections
Cons
  • High price
