Does the job but I doubt the accuracy

I like it because it's small and thin and the price is good. However, I constantly doubt the correctness. First, it doesn't weigh light objects - they won't register unless you weigh close to 1lb (or more). So don't plan to use this for small mail. I like the different features as they came in handy a few times. In terms of accuracy, I can weigh the same box multiple times and get slightly different results. They're usually all within 0.1 or 0.2 pounds of each other, but there really shouldn't be any difference. A few examples: * 2 items advertised as 4lbs, I weigh them individually and they are 4.0 but together they are 8.1. It might round, so I won't lose sleep over that. Still. just questions me. *Item 1 weighs 2.0. Point 2 weighs 1.2. Both weighed together gives 3.3*. I weighed myself on the scale and out of 5 weighments I got 5 scales increasing - a difference of 0.8 pounds. In general, the accuracy leaves a lot to be desired. I'm disappointed because I wanted to use it to weigh outbound shipments. I have a feeling it's close, but I might end up buying something with more accuracy.

Pros
  • Fingers crossed
Cons
  • There are flaws
