650 X 0.1 Gram Digital Pocket Scale

I purchased the WeighMax 500g x 0.1 Digital Pocket scale for use as a portable food scale. As someone who is watching portion sizes both at home and while eating out, I've found the WeighMax scale to be very handy. Accuracy in food measurements is a crucial element of effective weight loss when combined with calorie counting, and the WeighMax was portable enough to allow me to take this to cookouts, restaurants, etc. It's about the size of an index card and the thickness of a finger. It fits easily in my purse or pocket. I would highly recommend this as a food scale.

I used this to weigh my 1982 pennies for my coin collection. In that year they were made from mostly copper like older pennies to mostly zinc like modern ones. Best "way" to tell them apart is to get the weight. This works great for that task. Only problems have been that batteries don't seem to last as long as I think they should for such a simple thing, and my pennies have scratched the metal. But I'm very happy with it overall.

The product is OK for the price you pay but the quality was just not great, was expecting something better.

I sorta understand why it's not calibrated as the batteries aren't connected till you pull the safety tab. This makes sense cause otherwise, batteries will be drained while the product is on the shelves. I just wish they shipped a 500g weight cause now I have to go back and purchase a weight and wait for it to be shipped to me. *SIGH*. The scale itself is decent. Small enough to fit in a pocket. The cover is handy and protects the scale. The display is bright. The calibration is off (I tried a few coins to check) by .2 grams. The scale is not very sensitive either. You can drop a few grains of sand on it and the display would not change. Not too big of a deal if you're not interested in being that accurate. I give it minus a star because no weight was included, nor a mention that the weight would be needed, and the fact that otherwise, it's not calibrated and I have to wait for my weight. Editted 5/16/12 Been about a year now and the scale has worked perfectly.

Stopped scaling correctly after about a month. Kept it in a location with nothing magnetic or electronic, perfectly calibrated. Just poor quality i guess.

these guys are way too light and it begs me to question myself if these things are getting the measurements correct. As it turns out, they measure very well with items that are above a gram but gets very inaccurate once you try to measure things that weigh under .5 grams. Thus, it's a complete waste for me because I bought it to measure very light items and these guys are just not getting the job done...

I really love this gram digital pocket scale. It measures accurately and is easy to use. Small size makes it easy to store.

I received my scale in very good packaging, the scale came with batteries and a very easy to follow step by step operational Manuel. I've use the scale to weigh couple of items that I knew the weight of and was surprise to see that the scale is 99.9% accurate for the price. Love it and i'm very happy with it, I will recommend tis product to anyone.
