Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Salter 1450 Digital Nutritional Scale
Customer Review: Slater 1450
Summary: 4 Stars
Product delivers as advertised. Takes a bit of getting used to to operate quickly and without starting over mutiple times. Not magic though. You must have the discipline to use it. If you don't have the discipline don't waste your money.Customer Review: W-A-Y too much work
Summary: 3 Stars
Perhaps had I not previously owned a Salter 1400 I would have liked the 1450. I much prefer entering a simple number for a food (e.g. apple is #205) on the 1400 than to type out the food name on a keypad (pressing the number 5 three times to type an "L"). Being able to customize the 1450 scale is fabulous, but I just wouldn't use it that often. It's a good product, just cumbersome. I returned it to Amazon and purchased another 1400 and am very happy.Customer Review: Wonderful for diabetics
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this 1 year ago to help with the food weight for a 3 year old diabetic child in my child care. It was quite a bit of work to figure out how to use it. I guess I was intimidated! Once I sat down for an hour or so and really read over the book and figured out how it worked - I LOVED IT! I have not and will not put favorite recipes in it but I do use it to weigh all her fruit. It does remember the ones you have used and you can scroll through the list. I also LOVE to use it to weigh servings. Ie - I can put a bowl on the scale and zero it out. I add dry pasta for instance or dry cereal until I get to the amount of grams that is 1 serving. You can also change it to ML and LB/OZ as well as G. I probably use it at least 3 times a day for all her meals. I no longer use the 1 cup is a serving method. I use the grams per serving since this scale is so accurate. It has made my life and her insulin portions go much smoother and much more accurate.Customer Review: dissatisfied
Summary: 1 Stars
i returned this product for refund. it is much too time consuming to enter the food that is being weighed, i.e. "peanuts": once the scale recognizes the basic word, it scrolls through all sorts of peanut containing foods before actually getting to basic peanuts. it does not recognize small amounts well: i placed 4 small tomatoes on it and it kept registering 0 until i put an entire pound of tomatoes on it, and then removed one after the other until i had only 4 - and it registered their weight then. i don't have that kind of time or patience. since i am now out of pocket for shipping charges, both ways, i am extremely dissatisfied.Customer Review: no0t to happy
Summary: 2 Stars
the salter 1450 seemed to work just fine until I got to making up my own recipt part,when I added the first few items it worked fine but when I entered the next item it would tack on maybe a 1000calories when it should have been 50, I could'nt figure out if it was the scales or I just couldn't figure out how to do it.
I finally sent it back because it was just to complicated and time consuming for me,I didn't like the keyboard arrangment,
it just took to long using the numbers for letters
I think it is a good product just not for me.
