My Weigh KD-8000 Digital Food Scale, Stainless Steel, Silver

Love this ! It plugs in, no more batteries. This is the best scales I've ever had. Wish I would of bought this years ago. Don't waste money on the rechargeable ones , that never last. (purchased 4 in the past) Never again, the best thing about it, it plugs in and all the features is a big plus . It is worth every penny. Fits perfectly on my counter ready to use, it has a background light to turn on or off. Its very accurate. and you can turn the beep off or on. I love how it stays on ounces after use as that's what I use most and don't have to reset units each time like the battery ones. Give me common sense plug in , not this short term battery junk. I LOVE THIS !!!

My wife LOVES this scale for making sour dough bread. It's very accurate, and she loves the Hold button feature.

Works well and feels like a quality unit. It's not a light piece of plastic junk.

Simple to use. Accurate as claimed when checked against calibrated weights. Good weight range up to 8kg

I This scale was recommended in a baking group I am in. I couldn't be more pleased. First of all, I checked the calibration with a nickel - Just FYI, it should weigh 5 grams and did! I removed the cover over the buttons, I am weighing dry ingredients and don't need it. I use it plugged in, programmed it so that it is on until I turn it off. LOVE that feature, my battery operated scale, turned off after a certain amount of inactivity, nothing worse than getting interrupted while weighing ingredients to come back to a scale that has turned off. The 2nd thing I love, because the readout in angled, you can put a large mixing bowl on the scale and see the readout. #3.The on/off, tare, units are all separate buttons another massive improvement over the typical 2 button scales I have had in the past. #4 - the plate you weigh on just lifts off, making it really easy to clean. #5 No need for a battery, but have the option. The scale comes with a power cord, that by the way is pretty long, just incase you don't have an outlet close to where you want to use it. So far I have not found one thing I would change. It is pricier than a lot of kitchen scales, but if it lasts the way my baker friends claim, I will be money ahead in the long run. I have replaced the "cheapy" several times. I think this guy is in it for the long haul! I couldn't be more pleased. 1 year later…MINUS 1 STAR: The power supply, which is one of the main reasons I bought a new scale, is cheaply made. The scale wouldn’t turn on, I thought maybe my outlet was tripped, so I plugged it into a different outlet and it worked. Checked my breakers they were all on, plugged something else into the outlet, it worked. So I figured there must be a short in the power supply, sure enough I see that the wires are exposed, the piece that is supposed to deter that from happening is so stiff, it created the issue. A replacement is $15-$16 for a scale that is less than a year old and has been used by a hobby baker.

This scale does everything as advertised. I am an executive chef in a high end tea shop that has a huge focus on baking. Scones, crumpets, fresh in house made bread and English muffins, along with a signature cake that's been served at this same restaurant for 140 years that's in the James Beard classics cookbook. The scales I had were almost as old as the restaurant. Old, rusty, no metric conversion and generally not accurate enough to maintain any kind of consistency day to day. I shopped around and every other digital scale that had all of the features of this one all cost at least twice as much and my boss wouldn't give me the budget to buy a true balance bakers scale that cost $400. This scale has a pretty big platform to hold even bigger measuring vessels while still being able to see the display. The platform is also removable for easy cleaning. The display is nice and big so it's easy to read and super bright. The hinged control and display cover is a nice feature and is easily removed for cleaning. It also came with two flexible plastic control and display covers that will allow you to change display setting with it in place. I love how I can change the display from just ounces to just pounds with another setting that displays both pounds and ounces so when I'm scaling out ingredients for bread and need 5lbs of flour and then 2oz of yeast, I don't have to change the display. It also will convert to metric to grams and kilograms. Do yourself a favor and get the power cord right away. It does come with cheapo batteries which is a nice feature if you need portability but in a commercial kitchen, battery power probably won't last long. It does have an auto off feature which in my opinion is a tad short and it even turns itself off when on AC power which I'm not thrilled about but it's minor when you consider what you get for the money. I might be able to disable the auto off feature but I've only been using this scale for two weeks. So far it's been perfect. The instructions recommend calibrating the scale before using it. I already had a 1oz, 1gr, 1lb, and 1kg, calibration weight set and it was dead on right out of the box. The only other thing that I wish was different was I wish it had a bit more weight to it so it stayed put a little better but now I'm nitpicking. I havent used the baking percentage feature yet as all the recipes I use already have multiple batch measurements as well as metric and standard weights listed so i can really speak for that. All in all, for what this scale costs, its awesome. Great scale for the money.

I have had this approximately 3 years and I LOVE this for my soapmaking❣️

This scale works great and is perfect for making bread. I was intimidated at first as I have never used grams. This scale is super simple. The use of the scale actually saves from having so many dishes to wash and is more accurate because you don't have residue left in your measuring cups. A great example is honey. Just squeeze right into your bowl or container. Works the same for starter if you are making sourdough.

O fato do ecra é botões ficarem protegidos e o prato se amovível para lavar são excelentes ideias que facilitam a operação e aumentarão a longevidade do equipamento. A inclinação do ecrã permite fácil leitura com recipientes maiores. Recomendo.

It was perfectly packed, and it is working fine would love to recommend to everyone in my circle

Una gran compra, sobre todo la función de porcentajes. Aunque es un poco grande, vale la pena, ya que es muy precisa y que tengas un adaptador hace la deferencia

A very useful and accurate scale that works well. I recommend buying it

Accurate scales. Well made and easy to clean. I use the tare function every time to add different amounts of ingredients during the course of making the recipe. I highly recommend these scales.
