📦 ultraship U2 60 lb Black Scale by My Weigh SCMULTRA2-60 055 Review

piece of junk, you really do get what you pay for - btw I found the listing a bit misleading, didn't know it didn't include a power supply like every other electronics sold on the face of the earth, instead it comes with a USB cable only. brought this to the seller's attention and he said he would send the power supply as soon as possible but he never did. I ended up using the one I had hidden in my desk drawer, same specs as on their website, a lot of good things I did, the LCD failed after a…

I bought this scale because it was Michael Ruhlman's first choice and holds more weight than your average kitchen scale. However, they are slightly larger than a typical kitchen scale and can be difficult to clean. They come with some bloody stupid instructions on how to hook them up to a computer and do something, I have no idea what, with software written in horrible English. . If they threw away those instructions, that functionality and just gave me batteries instead, I would have given…

Ultraship is a great scale for small business. I like how you can customize what is shown in the top and bottom rows. I've set the top line to show pounds as I mostly ship via FedEx. Then the bottom line will show pounds and ounces if I'm shipping with USPS. You can power the meter with a USB cable, batteries or a separate plug (not included). The software, as others have mentioned, is useless. It will not properly transfer back to the FedEx software or the Stamps.com software. It's easier to…

I prefer to praise than to criticize. That's why I usually give good grades. But I don't want to lie. Therefore I can only give 1 star. I ordered 2 kitchen scales. Another "Etekcity" is based on reviews and descriptions by Revain, and I ordered this one at the recommendation of Michael Ruhlman's "Ratio" app. I thought it would be reliable, but it isn't. (I will not buy your book again, Michael Ruhlman. Revain reviews are far, far more reliable.) This is an impractical scale. It only seems good,

This is an upgrade for us from the 35lb model we previously had. That's great as it weighs up to 60 pounds, which is good for suitcases, boxes and other things we have. The detachable front cover with a long extension allows you to place large items on the scale while still being able to see the weight and touch the controls. The mail accessory works well too, but I usually use the main scale for parcels. Various weight measurements were good for international shipping. It's small enough to be…

USB doesn't work for weight input because the company changed the internals. At least not for me. The company uses a serial chip internally that converts to USB, but apparently that doesn't work very well for this device. Certainly this is a step backwards. The old ones had a USB chip. Why did they change? Maybe to save 25 cents per item. I can't get my Mac's USB input software to work. I tried to use SendIT for Mac mail software. It worked on older devices and should work on newer ones if…

I would rate this scale 5 out of 5 if the downloadable shipping software for Windows and installation guide offered for this unit by the MY-WEIGH scale were not the MOST would be the WORST software I have come across in my 20+ years in tech. Not only is this software useless and incompatible with most of the latest Windows OS (XP, Vista, Win7) based systems (Heads are plugged in there for you. You know who you are. Guess who Serial to USB -Converter used, COM port configures settings "How many…

Haven't used this scale for a long time, so I can't say anything about durability. I can't comment on the USB connection either as I haven't tried and don't intend to use this feature. It turned out that the scale had been bought and returned earlier. I don't think it was packaged properly for a thin electronic device - the outer box just fit in two dimensions and the padding was only on one side. Overall, the scale looks pretty decent for the price. It weighs consistently and at least fairly…

GOOD: - Large capacity. The large 60lb capacity is more than other 50/55lb scales from the same manufacturer at a comparable price. - USB connection. It has a USB port that can be used to power the scale. So if you have a USB cable and power plug lying around (and who doesn't?), you now have a FREE power outlet. This was a huge plus for me as other models have a proprietary AC connector that is sold separately. Very accurate. I have compared this scale to my smaller, more accurate kitchen scale
