Love the new version of this scale! The numbers are lit the whole time, no problem seeing or guessing. The weight doesn’t jump after a few seconds either like the old version did. Excellent job revising the scale.
Love this scale - it allows me to measure large meals all at once. Being able to pull the display out is great too for when I have to place a wide item on the scale.
Being able to switch between ounces/grams is great too, because sometimes the serving size on the box is in oz and sometimes it's in grams :-)
I have used this scale for a couple of years now and have relied on it being accurate. Today I discovered that when weighing very small quantities, this scale does not always display the accurate measure. My baguette recipe calls for 3g of instant yeast. My usual method is to place a condiment dish on the scale and tare to zero, then pour yeast into the dish until the scale reads 3g. Today when measuring yeast the scale continued to read 0 until I had poured an unusually large amount of yeast into the dish. I questioned this amount and noted on the internet that 1/2 tsp of yeast should weigh 2.8g. I tried an experiment with the OXO scale. I spooned out 1/2 tsp of yeast and poured it into the zeroed dish (which weighs 75g) and the scale indicated 2g. Adding a small additional amount of yeast yielded a reading of 3g. I then emptied the dish and reset the scale and proceeded to pour the yeast from the jar. The scale displayed 0g. I waited and poured additional yeast and the scale continued to display 0g. I then lifted the dish from the scale and the display read -79g. A difference of 4g from the initial weight of the dish. I placed the dish back on the scale and the display read 0g. Thinking that the scale platter somehow got stuck I repeated the process. The results were identical. When I measured the yeast with a spoon and poured the entire contents into the dish at once the scale measured correctly, however, when I slowly poured the yeast from the jar the scale mismeasured the yeast by a significant amount. It appears that I cannot trust this scale to be accurate at small weights when slowly adding the ingredient.
