its accurate and price is right. when ever you purchase a scale put a penny in it and you should get 2.5 grams. just a pre-test worth performing.

This is a really fantastic little scale. It's very small, light and durable. You can thrown it in a bag and use it on the go.
The display is large and easy to read. I don't imagine it's the most accurate scientific instrument you can get, but the fact that it shows ounces to three decimal places and grams to one decimal place is very helpful. Most small digital scales that cost five times as much don't show that precision. The controls are very easy to use.
It takes standard AAA batteries, which are much easier to find and cheaper than those annoying coin cells that all have non-standard codes that vary by manufacturer.
The best part is the price. It's an impressive value.
Tiny little useful wonder. It's perfect for making sure that your packages qualify for USPS First Class Mail February 24, 2010

I purchased this scale so I could weigh small packages/envelopes and print out USPS First Class Mail (FCM) shipping labels with exact weight in ounces. I'm glad to say that this scale has not disappointed me.
If you print out your own USPS FCM labels online then you get free Delivery Confirmation so this scale has already paid for itself at least 3 times over. Before I was going to my local post office and purchasing Delivery Confirmation for .90 cents for each package but now with this little wonder I can weigh my own packages and save cash. If you mail several small packages every week via FCM then the savings really do add up.
Despite it small size (2 1/2" wide x 3 1/2" long) it can weigh large envelopes because the cover also acts as a supporting tray. If you mail 8" x 13" bubble wrap envelopes frequently like I do then this scale will be perfect.
I'm very happy with my purchase and I would highly recommend this item to anyone who is looking for a quality scale at an economical price to determine if their packages qualify for USPS FCM.

I bought this scale to weigh coins - mostly pennies. It is a GREAT scale. Came already calibrated so don't recalibrate it. Works fine. Does shut off quickly but I am ok with that since it is saving the battery. Arrived QUICKLY from the seller.
It's a handy little device April 18, 2009

It's very accurate and small enough to carry anywhere. The tray acts as a cover when not in use. It's well designed and easy to use. A+
