The best bang for the buck in a household digital scale
I've owned this scale for about 4 years and use it mostly in the kitchen to weigh ingredients.
The Zero function is indespensible. You can place a bowl or other container on the scale and zero the scale then weigh each ingredient as you add it to the bowl, zeroing between ingredients.
The scale even remembers to subtract the weight of the bowl and any contents added before the last time you zeroed it. You can remove the bowl to add ingredients and place the bowl back on the scale and the scale will only show the weight of the new ingredient.
I have a digital scale from another manufacturer, which has a zero function but does not remember the zero value if you remove the container and place it back on the scale. It's a pain.
Ohaus has a long tradition of accuracy. Their triple beam analog scales have been used in scientific laboratories for years. This scale is very accurate and repeatable and stays accurate over time. In the 4 or so years I've owned it I have only had to replace the batteries 2 or 3 times, and I use it every day.
