Very nice, but not perfect...

For what it's worth: This scale does a great job of doing exactly what it advertises: measuring the weight of small items within an accuracy of 0.1g (0.01 lbs). For that, it should get 5 stars. However, for some reason, it will not register really small weights (under 0.5g). For example, if you put 0.2g of salt on the scale, it will read 0.0g. Even if you continue to add salt, it will continue to read 0.0g until you get to 0.5g of salt at which point the scale will suddenly read 0.5g. From then on, it will accurately increase the displayed number as you continue to add weight.

Interestingly, this lack of display seems to be intention (that is, not a problem with the sensor detecting very small weights). For example, if you place a 53.6g cup on the scale and then add 0.2g of salt, the scale will correctly read 53.8g. However, if you instead place that same cup on the scale and tare it to 0.0g, then add 0.2g of salt, you will see 0.0g on the screen! This will continue until you add a total of at least 0.5g of salt, just like before.

So in summary, the scale is quite accurate, but you can't rely on it if the weight to be measured is very small and/or you have tared the scale such that the weight difference to be displayed is very small. Keep in mind that you can still measure really small weights by not taring and doing some math, although that is slightly annoying, hence the 4 stars.

Seems like a good product

I do like this scale my only complaint is that it doesn't come with a lid or case of any kind which makes it hard to carry around in my briefcase.

Scale for Building Stop Motion Puppets

I needed this scale to measure silicone and resin for molding the skeletal parts for my stop motion puppets. I have since covered the thing in these materials so it looks beat up from just a little use. However, it has served it's purpose. My only complaint would be that sometimes it doesn't like to register small amounts of the materials I'm weighing until I let it sit for a moment or two. But it's a good product.
