Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of American Weigh AWS-100 Precision Pocket Scale 100 x 0.01g
Customer Review: Best pocket scale of its kind for the price...buy with peace of mind
Summary: 5 Stars
I scoured the internet for the most inexpensive 100-gram scale with the best possible reviews, and this is it. Consider this review your due diligence on price differentials.
First of all, shipping was lightning quick. It took three days for the scale to get here, four days before the lower end of Amazon's estimated shipping period. When I got the scale, I found that the 100g calibration weight vindicated my decision entirely. How is one to know if the scale he bought works at all if there is no standard from which to measure? The 100g weight provides peace of mind that most other ads on here don't provide. You can come to your own conclusions about that.
The scale itself was sleek, spotless, and expensive-looking. The digital read-out looks great and will always comes within .01 grams of whatever you're measuring. The directions for use are idiot proof. The scale itself weighs very little. And like I said, the most important aspect of this scale is the price. You can buy a lot of scales on ebay or Amazon but this ad simply is the most inexpensive option that will work guaranteed. Other ads offer similar items at higher prices, some ads offer lower prices without a calibration weight or any reviews whatsoever. When you factor in the free $5 calibration weight and the peace of mind, this is the best product.
Customer Review: Blue Digital
Summary: 4 Stars
Just received this product the other day. Will state right off the bat , that before you try to turn it on remove the Shrink-wrap type plastic that comes with the pre-installed batteries. I kept pushing the on/off button and was almost ready to give up on it , when I checked the batteries and noticed they were still in this post shipped plastic.
The thing I liked most was the Auto off feature , if you leave the scale on for more than about twenty seconds it automatically turns off. Next thing I liked was the blue illumination of the digital display. The 100 gram calibrating weight makes a nice Table weight for paperwork :) Actually it weighed about 100.4 to 100.3 five different samples.
There is a instruction set on the inside of the Lid which is a helpful reminder in case of forgetting directions. Third thing I like is the size , fits in the inside pocket of any coat , or the inside of desk drawer. I weighed several dollar bills = 1.0 gram to 0.98 consistently sample was ten one dollar bills. Weighed 5 nickels which are supposed to weigh five grams. 4.97 throuh 5.2 out of sample of four nickels. Can zero it with the tare feature if you are using a tray for herbs for energy drinks if you're on a diet so is very useful.
I bought for all purpose , letters , energy drinks , weighing old jewelry and such. Am very happy with it so far.

I recent purchased a scale from this seller for the purposes of using it for weighing metals as well as other materials for my chemistry class. When I received the scale, the loading cells were damaged so the scale did not work. I contacted the seller Ed Zaker within the hour and he gave me a troubleshooting tip. The tip was not successful so I contacted him and he immediately sent out a new scale which arrived the next two days. Ed Zaker gave me extraordinary customer service and I would recommend his products as well as his customer service to everyone.Customer Review: Excellent product
