Space-saving in the kitchen
Very good product, very good functions, super price
Easy to use, takes up little space, fulfills its purpose
The handling is not so practical. You have to switch off the scales manually otherwise the battery is empty again immediately
Easy handling with practical functions such as measurement in grams, milliliters, etc. Easy to store as it is very flat
Display goes out a little too quickly. Elegant and practical to supply as it is compact.
The positive thing about the scales...stainless steel surface, measuring liquids, flat. The negative thing...initially they weighed accurately and stably. Now it weighs less and less accurately and you can't rely on the tare. Put the container on, press tare, display is "0". Remove the container and put it back on, display shows e.g. "-28" or "124", depending on the mood of the scales. If something is weighed, it does not display this at first, then the weight jumps "jerkily". Scale switches off during weighing, even after changing the battery. It's just a long time after the warranty. I am now looking for a more reliable scale.
After just one year, the kitchen scales no longer work. Although I have tried several times with different new batteries to get the scales working, the display shows "Lo". Annoying! I have now bought a new kitchen scale from Lidl
I am not at all satisfied with this scale. After not very long, the second one is already defective. Changed batteries - still LO!!! Warranty probably expired.
I am satisfied. I only need them for baking, where I measure both water and flour without any problems. With the small numbers, I am often unsure where to go down to 4 grams. But I haven't had any problems with the end result yet, so it seems to be right. It just reacts a little jerkily in the very low range, but once it has settled down, it's ok. I wouldn't have noticed the battery consumption at all, which many people criticize here. I probably use it too rarely, maybe twice a week on average, and I always switch it off immediately to put it away from the work surface in the drawer. I appreciate that it's super easy to clean. Damp cloth, done. It's my second one, the first one lasted about a year - and who keeps a receipt for around 20 francs back then? But I've had this one for a while now, it was probably a faulty appliance. Would I buy it again? Well, if it breaks, not necessarily...
