Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Escali Primo Digital Multifunctional Scale
Customer Review: A must have!
Summary: 5 Stars
The only thing I can think of to improve this device is to add a slot or hole on the bottom so you can hang it up. It's big and flat so it takes up a lot of real estate in a kitchen drawer.
Also, the instructions fail to mention that you can turn off the device if you hold the on/off button down for about 5 seconds.
Customer Review: Accurate Kitchen Scale - Highly Recommended!
Summary: 5 Stars
We have used the Escali Primo Digital Scale for well over a year now and have nothing but good things to say about it. We will likely replace it with the same model when it comes time to replace this one but there is no sign of this being needed anytime soon. Here are my observations:
+ Fairly Small Footprint
+ Very Accurate
+ Easy to Tare
+ 11lb Weight Capacity
+ Easy to Read Digital Display
This is a great scale for everyday use in the kitchen and we have also used it for our kid's science projects as well.
Highly Recommended!

Customer Review: Accurate and Easy to Use
Summary: 5 Stars
I just decided to test the scales accuracy. I placed my wrist watch on it and then went to work and placed my watch on a scientific (accurate to the 4th decimal) laboratory scale. The Home scale read 140 grams the lab scale read 140.2 grams. That's more good enough for me!
In terms of use I found the scale to be extremely intuitive and easy to use. It runs on two AA batteries and has an automatic shutoff that clicks in after 4 minutes.
All in all well worth the price.
Customer Review: Accurate and convenient

Here it is. You have found it. You are reading this review because you are looking for a good digital kitchen scale, you have been shopping around, checking your options...but here is the one you need.
A scale is necessary for any serious work in the kitchen, especially for baking when accuracy is essential. I looked all over for just the right one, in both its ability to hold decent weights, in accuracy and over-all design. This little fellow is absolutely perfect, and once I found it my search was over.
There are some that are a lot cooler looking, and if you never want to actually use it but just have a fancy decoration for your kitchen, you might want to try one of those glass-and-chrome numbers. There are some with a lot of extra features and whistles and bells that you will use once for fun and then never again. But for those who are actually doing some work in their kitchen, this functional little fellow has exactly what you need.
The "tare" feature lets you zero out the weight of the container for when you are measuring in bowls and such. It is compact, which is important if your kitchen isn't huge. Durable which means it is going to do its job for a long time. And accurate enough to measure sacks of flower or tiny weights of spice.
Customer Review: Average Product
Summary: 3 Stars
It works, but not that accurately. The gram's smallest unit is a single digit (no decimals). The ounce goes up to the first decimal.
I don't think it's an accurate scale. I put a container on it, tared it, and added mineral makeup gradually. After 2 tablespoons i still didn't get a reading (LCD stayed at 0 grams). So I took it off and the scale went to -8 grams. I tared it again and added mineral all at once, the scale registered the weight, but it doesn't seem accurate 'cause I keep getting differing weights.
It looks nice in the picture with the lighting but most of it is plastic. Since it does weigh occasionally I gave it a 3. It might be the standard quality for a scale this price, disappointing though.
