GREAT NUTRITION SCALE - All you'll EVER Need.
So Much More than a Kitchen Scale - A "Nutrition" Scale.I bought this scale - not to lose weight...although it could be used for that - quite effectively, but to track my Sodium, Calories, Fats, Sugars and overall Daily "LIMITS" levels from the Food I consume.Nothing could work better. ALL the Nutrition DATA is on EVERY product LABEL...from Calories..ALL the way down to mcg. of Vitamins...Potassium..Fiber..etc. the "Killer App" of this scale is that you can SCAN the UPC..."price code" and say 90+% of the time, the EXACT product is found, and uploaded. From then on...take a week to upload your "repeat" food, and anything you add to your diet. If a product is NOT FOUND..you can "create food" and add the nutrition numbers in...it's easy. You can even load a "Taco Bell" Burrito...the nutrition facts are online...easy to find.Ok...Things to note:- You have to "ADD" products to get them in the database...BUT they are easy to DELETE...they say 'swipe right or left" Iphone or Android...but do this instead..."PUSH DOWN" on item...gives you delete.- You can Also add "MEALS"...just make a list of a meal you eat, and click on ... and "Add as a meal"...name it..and it becomes a choice...like a potato.- You can add grams, oz, ml. etc of food 2 ways..A. Just tare a bowl..weigh food, enter weight..B. "LIVE" weight....choose a food from your list...with scale ON...and weight/cal..ALL categories "fill in"...save..and it's recorded. Cool Feature Really.- You can search food by typing it in - search database (if not in your data)..or it searches your food so no scrolling.- Sort alphabetically or by "recent" most used..- bummer it doesn't keep your last search criteria.- You can add your age..height weight gender AND DIET you choose...I did DASH..and it gives you Kcal per day...Calories...- BUT..you can go to SETTINGS..and enter your Calorie limit/goal...AND Add limits to EACH category...- ie..I put in the LIMITS daily for DASH...2300 mg SODIUM...Down to 15 mcg Vitamin D..- Given all this...You can..And I do..MEET ALL your limits per day by entering Breakfast lunch dinner snacks...and as the day goes on..you can "customize" dinner..snacks etc. if you are going to go over a limit. (The one exception is SUGARS..I think this scale counts FRUIT sugars equal to added sugars in processed food IMHO)...watch for that.- Lastly...NUTRITION INFORMATION gives you a rundown of numbers vs limits...and some verbiage on what to do if you blow a limit....green is good..red is over.- Lastly lastly...lll 3 bars gives you daily, weekly, monthly histograms of calories per meal, and Carbs protein fats per day week month breakdown.It's entirely possible to enter EVERYTHING you Eat...but it takes a bit of time commitment. Even if you don't enter everything...or skip days...using it a few times correctly gives you an idea of what you are eating "Numerically".Great product...sturdy..sleek..easy to use...Get One. I bought one for each of my kids.Customer Cool 4/26/2025

Easy to use, has tare function
Baking usually requires exact measurements and this scale is perfect for that.I can tare the weight between ingredients so I don’t have to do math beyond halving or doubling a recipe. It has imperial or metric options and a clear, bright display with an easy learning curve for use. I love that it has an auto shut off function.It’s slim for easy storage, and is very light, but can stand up to triple batch weights. It wipes clean easily. Battery life is excellent, and best of all - it doesn’t have an annoying beeping sound when the buttons are pressed.Love it!

Easy to Use, Great for Diet and Meal Prep
I purchased the Etekcity Food Kitchen Scale to help me accurately measure food portions as part of a New Year's diet. Trying to eyeball portion sizes can be tricky, so using the weight measurements from food labels and this scale makes calorie tracking much more precise.While I don't have another scale to verify its accuracy, the weight measurements seem consistent and reliable for my needs. The scale is incredibly easy to operate with a single button for on/off and a dedicated tare function that works almost instantly.Cleaning is a breeze thanks to the stainless steel surface – it simply wipes clean. The LCD display is clear and easy to read. My only minor wish is that it was extendable, as large bowls can sometimes obstruct the view. However, for such an affordable, entry-level scale, this is a minor inconvenience, and you can find models with that feature for a slightly higher price if it's a necessity.I appreciate the automatic shut-off feature, which prevents accidental battery drain if I forget to turn it off after use. This is my first dedicated kitchen scale, so I don't have a comparison point, but I can say that this Etekcity scale does exactly what I need it to do. It provides accurate weights for my food portions and was very reasonably priced. It's a basic but effective tool that perfectly fulfills its purpose for my dietary needs.

Solid Little Scale - Accurate & Convenient (But a Few Minor Quirks)
I recently purchased this Food Kitchen Scale to help with portion control and baking, and overall, I'm pretty happy with it. For the price, it's a great little helper in the kitchen.One of the things I immediately appreciated is how light and compact it is. It doesn't take up much counter space at all, and it's easy to store away in a drawer when I'm not using it. The stainless steel platform is easy to wipe clean, which is a definite plus after dealing with sticky ingredients.The accuracy seems pretty decent. I've tested it against some known weights, and while it's not perfect, it's certainly accurate enough for my needs. The tare function works well, allowing me to easily weigh ingredients in bowls without having to do any math. I’ve found it particularly useful for measuring ingredients for bread making.However, there are a couple of things that prevent me from giving it a full 5 stars. First, the display, while clear, can be a little difficult to read in certain lighting conditions. Also, I am not really liking buttons, sometimes, it doesn't register my press, which can be a bit frustrating when I'm trying to quickly tare the scale or switch units. The scale is okay, it gets the job done.Ultimately, this Food Kitchen Scale is a good value for the money. It's accurate enough for most home cooking and baking needs, it's compact and easy to store, and the tare function is a time-saver. Just be aware of the slightly fussy buttons and potentially tricky display in certain lighting. Still a worthwhile purchase if you're looking for an affordable and functional kitchen scale.
