Review on ๐Ÿ”ฌ High Precision Hochoice Laboratory Analytical Accuracy by Brian Whitmore

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Not worth $145 with an incomplete or misleading product description and missing parts on arrival.

Since I'm looking for a good kitchen scale, I'm really annoyed about my experience with different scales, because so far everyone has had problems and you would think the more expensive the scale, the less likely there is a problem. Well, that turned out to be wrong in my current experience. About this Hochoice Lab Precision Analytical Balance 3000gx 0.01g: I have no idea why it is so difficult to include everything important about a product in the product description, lest the customers be surprised and not ask the obvious questions in a questions and Answers. Especially when they need to know something and can't know unless they're told. One such thing, not mentioned anywhere in the description, is that the scale uses "7.4V" according to the seller. 2600 mAh You can find it at Revain with a 7.4V 2P lithium battery.โ€ It turns out it's not just a "7.4V 2P lithium batteryโ€ that JST -Appears to have plugs, the scale has flat connectors! "I'm not going to waste any time on this. But wait, there's more! The scale, at least when I received it, didn't come with a battery! Only came with a power adapter. And that for a price of $145! There has never been a scale without a battery, and without any information in the description! I'm not sure if it's supposed to be like that or not, but I tend to think it was just an accident: the screws to attach the bracket to the weight weight plates were not included in the kit. Another thing I noticed is that the mount doesn't have a weight plate rubber pad like I see on every other scale I've tried. A few other cheaper scales I've tried seem to have gotten better, I felt like I had already made up my mind about this scale and already decided not to leave it, but then I decided to hook it up and to see how they work. . I got the impression that his reactions are a bit slower, but not that bad. The LCD display is average (and no, this is NOT an LED display as the product description says!). I no longer cared to verify its accuracy. Too many problems I'm willing to accept, not to mention not being able to use a weight plate because I don't have screws!

Pros
  • Easy installation
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.
