Digital Kitchen Scale (2 Pack)

Update; After 586 days the scale has finally given up the ghost. I should have tried to get it replaced while it was under warranty because it was always a bit wonky. About 3-4 months ago (3 months or so past the 12 month warranty) it really started acting up. I could say it was possessed by a mean spirited little sh|t that liked screwing with my head and would pass a polygraph 9/10 times. It's a sad day since I'll be outta juice before I can buy a replacement. I wish the quality control was better because I really liked the design, too bad I've had a couple. While the first AMIR scale was off by .05g, it was easy enough to adjust my measurements and I was cool with that because it was still more accurate than a .1g scale and it was priced well. That scale, exact same one as my Oct 10th 2018 purchase, it lasted just over 1 year before it decided to go off to stay with it's uncle, on his big farm. I figured it was for the best, on the farm it would have all the room to run and play, oh crap that's where the dog went, not the scale. The scale found it's way into file 13 AKA the trash. Since I've had 2 of these now and neither one making it to the 2 year mark I'm gonna have to drop it another star & I may have to try another brand or type of scale that reads .01g x 500g or .001g x 200g if I can find one at a decent price or I'll get a .001gx 100g and make smaller batches of juice, more frequently. Sory AMIR it was fun while it lasted, I'm sure you'll find the right guy for you, it's just not gonna be me. Dammit that's what I told the "real" blonde Brittany last month. Real blondes don't have brown drapes, right? Anyways I must say so long to my fairweather friend AMIR, it's been real &^ maybe we can try hanging out again once the weather gets nicer or you start making scales with better parts or quality control but, until then BYE BYE sorry about dropping you to 2 stars. If I buy another AMIR and it's accurate I'll bump you back up to 4 or 5 stars. I purchased this scale for making my own e-juice and it does so so to okay. It started off pretty close giving me readings that were + or - .01 different than the beaker that I use as a tare. After 20 or so uses the .01 grew to + or -.01-.03 which I could still work with by figuring that into the calculations but now there is a different reading between the tare weight and reading before and after using the tare. Sometimes it works great and other times the .01 portion will float around, after it settles I'll pick it up and set it back down several times and it will give me upto 4 different readings. It depends on the ingredients that are in each recipe. For flavorings that are very strong a difference of one or 2 drops can make or break a recipe and the same can be said for finishers like EM, Sweeteners sour and others. For recipes that use small amounts of strong flavorings or finishers I feel more comfortable counting a few drops than depending on the scale. With other flavors that typically have much larger %'s like TFA Ripe Strawberry and other fruit flavors the close but no cigar reading is just fine, it beats counting 60 or 70 drops. I'm not trying to be knit picky because it's not that big of a deal for me and my uses. I've got a decent collection of flavors I make 30, 40,60 and 120 ml of, so I don't make many taster size recipes that accuracy down to .01 is necessary. Compared to the amount of juice I use to dump down the drain using a .01 scale and counting drop I've definitely saved enough money that this scale is paid for and have enough left over to spend $20 on a .001 scale. If you weren't confused enough before reading this, you are now. My job here is done (mic drop). But seriously, i hope this review will help the picky picky folks out there pick a $20 .00 gram scale. For all you stoners and sloppy jalopy juice makers dis scale b jus fine.;-}
