Customer Review: Don't waste your money
Summary: 1 Stars
I purchased this scale after receiving many recommendations about Salter's quality. However, after not using it for the past three months, I turned it on and I received an error. I called Salter and they said not to worry and that they'd fix or replace it. They gave me an address to send the scale to. So I pay to mail it back to the address I was given and upon checking the delivery confirmation status after finding the slip, I read that the package was undeliverable. So I was given the wrong address by their service representative and one of two things will now happen: I'll receive the scale back (although unlikely, as it's been quite some time since it was refused) and I'll have to AGAIN pay to ship it to them to fix hoping they give me the right address, OR it's lost in the mail and I have to buy a new scale entirely. I am thoroughly disappointed.
Description of Salter 5-Pound Microtronic Kitchen Scale, White
The Microtronic Kitchen Scale weighs in both pounds and kilos and measures in precise 1/8 ounce increments. This easy to read 5-pound compact scale automatically adjusts for use with most bowls or containers or can weigh directly onto the platform. It is highly resistant to staining or flavor carry over and has an add weigh feature for convenience of adding individual ingredients using the same bowl while its on the scale. The auto shut off and auto zero feature, an easy to read 0.4" LCD display, 10 year warranty make this scale ideal for dietary or general use.English manufacturer Salter understands that the best cooking requires impeccable standards in precision. A slight measurement difference between two and four ounces of minced jalapeno pepper in a recipe can mean disaster. To avoid such mishaps, Salter created this microtronic scale. With its compact size and simple design, users profit by easy storage whether on a countertop or a drawer.
The scale features a round 5-3/4-inch diameter plate upon which to place ingredients. Its careful construction maintains standards in both appearance and flavor, combating residual stains and flavors from previous use. With a handy conversion switch, ingredients may be measured in either the metric or imperial system, enabling cooks to prepare recipes from overseas without rummaging for a calculator. The scale handles quantities weighing up to 5 pounds, marked by the LCD display in 1/8-ounce increments. For the metric system mode, the scale measures with 2-gram increases with up to 2 kilograms capacity. For measurement with bowls or other containers, users need only place the empty container on the scale and press the power button to set the measurement to zero for isolated ingredient weights. The scale also features an automatic zero setting and shutdown, extending the long life of the replaceable lithium batteries. For the best care, wipe down the scale with a damp cloth or a gentle cleanser. Batteries are included with this scale. Salter offers a ten-year warranty on this product. The scale measures 6-3/4 by 7-1/2 by 1-1/2 inches. --Jessica Reuling
