Product Information

Most of the digital scales that we offer are pretty small and could be classed as a pocket or portable scale. We also read some editorials, owner reviews, and an article in The New York Times, and we watched a video by Alton Brown preaching the gospel of cooking by ratio. This reduces the risk, by being larger than button batteries, but if you’ve got little ones about, we'd advise storing scales that have one-step battery removal out of reach. If you’re a casual cook and occasional baker, then you can’t go wrong with these simple to use scales.

Choose from grams, pounds, fluid ounces and millilitres, and cycle through them easily using the buttons. The few that you may struggle with are the "On Balance CD Scale" or the "On Balance KB-2000 Kitchen Scale" these also feature a 3-year manufacturer warranty honoured by On Balance.Eschewing the traditional metallic or black kitchen scale design, these scales from Typhoon feature a delicate floral pattern on a pale blue background. It was an ocean to wade through, so we had to set strict rules for ourselves to determine what qualities were most important for the home cook. These scales only measure in ounces and grams, but this comes as no surprise as they’re just a simple set.

You should be able to tare repeatedly so that you can zero out the weight of whatever’s in the bowl and measure additional ingredients. Some higher end scales have additional features like body composition analysis, automatic shut-off, or Bluetooth connectivity. We ship to most countries worldwide, there may be limitations on the addresses they can be delivered based on each individual country. A 6- or 8-pound capacity might sound like plenty, but once you've taken into account the weight of the vessel you're weighing your ingredients into, you can quickly begin to.

It also failed to read anything 2 grams or lighter and wavered greatly in the 20-gram and 5-gram tests. The REM Concepts Digital Food Scale is another model that’s more or less like our top picks, but this one really struggled with accuracy at heavier weights, underestimating our kilogram weight by 2 grams.

But large, easy-to-read lettering and a vibrant backlit display are useless if you can't see the display under a large bowl.

Many kitchen scales have raised buttons or displays with unsealed edges, increasing the potential to quickly muck them up with flour and oil, so they become impossible to clean.
