Best scales I ever brought. Comes with a steel bowl witch is awesome but the best thing is that use can use others plates. Also battery last for ages
Decent sized bowl. Easy to reset to zero when adding multiple ingredients
Bought this for my mum who is a great baker but has poor eyesight
She loves the bright screen and large bowl and has recommended it to friends
These scales are amazing. Bought for my mum who has trouble seeing the metrics and measurement. The digits are big and great illuminatio
I was initially surprised how compact the scale was. I am delighted with my purchase though. The scale seems to measure very accurately. The stainless steel bowl is good quality. However, my favourite feature is the display. I am partially sighted and have struggled to read other scales. The display is bigger than normal and the back-light makes it much easier for me to read.
Delivered promptly and on time after my previous purchase was lost and undelivered. Works amazingly well.
Very happy with these scales. I bake a lot and this is so easy to clean and then weigh more ingredients. The zero function is helpful too.
Usually I don’t leave review, but this product deserve one. I purchased this scale 5 years ago and it’s still going strong, still working, very easy to use. I use it for everything it’s a must in every kitchen.
I have it since 2017 and it’s still as new. I am using it very often, every second day.
I had a slim digital scales before this one and what a difference, this is way better. I’ve just ordered another for the garage for the dog food. It comes with a lovely big bowl that’s destine for the kitchen though.
Beautiful large digital display, with every type of weight measurement. Up to 5kg or 11lb perfect scales.
You can put a plate on these scales and you’re still able to read the display which you can’t with other scales. Great scales, would highly recommend
Scales a Christmas gift , as my daughter has bad eyesight, she was thrilled , can now measure ingredients without a magnifying glass
These scales are a great buy. I like the way you can use any bowl to weigh the ingredients which saves on washing up. Very pleased with my purchase
Great well made kitchen scale, this is my 3rd scale purchase this year, my last two had design and general build quality issues, this scale is on a whole other level of quality and design. Highly recommended produc
I love the design and sleek look. I use it all the time. Most of all I love the big screen as my vision is not what it used to be and the backlit screen makes it so much easier to read. I would recomment this scale to anyone.
The product did not work with enclosed batteries but as soon as I changed them for Duracell batteries it worked fine. I am very pleased with these scales which are so easy & handy to use. I have had thiis model before several years ago & had to have a new one as numbers on scale kept changing as I watched it.
No doubt these scales will last me for several years again.
Purchased these scales for my grandmother who is visually impaired. The scales were really easy to set up and to use with very large display numbers with a blue back light, which I thought would be perfect. However, she was unable to make the numbers out clearly and could only see the light.
I have had my Duronic for over a year now and I cannot imagine any other design could be better, at least for my purpose of breadmaking. It is not only the excellent scales and bowl but the brilliant boxing which acts as a well-designed storage for the unit. It is very low maintainance and just needs a dry cloth to wipe and polish the bowl after use with dry ingredients. I give it ten out of ten for one of my favourite gadgets.
In general, I’m very happy with the set of scales, as far as I can tell it’s as accurate as it needs to be. My only bugbear, and the reason for docking a point, is that it will switch itself off after about 1 minute, and you can’t adjust it or stop it from doing that, so if you get distracted part way through weighing, you may need to start again.
After reading the reviews I decided to purchase these mainly for the easy buttons and the fact they take AAA batteries and not the fiddly flat ones.
Absolutely love them! They’re simple to use even my hubby was happy as they have 2 or 3 buttons and none of the extra buttons you tend to get on others.
The screen is bigger than I expected which is great if you have sight problems, the numbers are large and well lit up.
Easy, simple and basic scales just what I was looking for.
I needed a new set of scales and saw these come up when I was searching for Kitchen scales.
Well these have certainly exceeded my expectations by so much! The display is clear and easy to read, the platform (from 1 gram upwards) reads beautifully and accurately. (Tested with 1g weight, 5g weight, 25g weight, 50g weight and a 500g weight and combinations of them all). Extremely accurate, You can use almost anything as the container for the scales, as well as without a container if you so desire for small items. The bowl which comes with the scales is a very nice stainless steel bowl which comfortably holds liquids and powders (flour, sugar etc).
The modes are brilliant too, measuring in ml, floz, grams and oz’s. So whether you’re metric or imperial, you’re good to go at the push of a button. The zeroing function is also brilliant, just switch on the scales, put your container of choice on the scales, and hit the zero/power button to zero the measure. Great if you want to put multiple ingredients into a mix without trying to work out if you have added enough, just zero each time before you add the next ingredient.
Not much more I can say, seriously, you can’t go wrong with these scales! LOVE THEM!
The main reason I bought the scales was that the display is out on a ‘foot’ and I can weigh things on a relatively large plate. If the plate overhangs the display the back-lighting ensures it’s still visible.
Accuracy seems to be OK. There’s sometimes a drift of +- a gram, but, honestly, if that’s going to be an issue you probably need scales design to weigh <10gm accurately, and not these.
Dropped a star because the scales switch off fairly rapidly to preserve the battery. It would have been helpful if the back light went off but the scales stayed on for a bit longer. Then, when weighing/preparing lots of stuff, I would have the time to get to a cupboard and back a couple of times before adding something else.
No opinions on lifetime, I've not had it long enough.
These scales looked good on-screen and so I decided to make an order. They were delivered on time and I’m very pleased with them.
They are accurate and have a beautifully, clear and bright, electric blue display. To conserve battery life, the display auto turns off, but gives ample time to weigh/ adjust quantities etc. Some reviewers have said that the “timer cut out” on the display is too short; I can confirm that this is NOT true.
The stainless steel bowl is an additional bonus and matches the high quality of the scales. If I were to be critical, it would be to suggest the addition of a spout to help when emptying. However, as I use these scales for bread making, the ingredients slip nicely from bowl to machine without spillage. I haven’t taken off a star for this reason because they definitely deserve the 5 star rating.
I can confidently recommend these scales to anyone who takes their baking/ cooking seriously.
I’ve been buying the flat metal or glass style of digital scale for years and while they certainly look stylish, they do not seem to be either robust or reliable. These Duronic scales are satisfyingly robust, the weight is really clear and if you put the bowl in a cupboard the scales don’t take up any more counter space than the flat kind. And in fact they are now less stylish in their own way! So far the weight is completely reliable – i.e. they give the same weight for the same item each time and if left for a moment, the weight doesn’t creep up or down (which has been the biggest problem with other scales I’ve bought). I like the stainless steel bowl as well – it’s a handy size and good quality. I’ve only had this Duronic scale a couple of weeks, so I cannot yet comment on whether they will still be reliable in a few months. If I have problems down the line, I’ll come back and edit this review.
