Typical Joseph Joseph quality, good functionality with detachable bowl & soft touch buttons. BUT: Sadly they missed a trick by not angling the display further up to make it more easily read. Have to duck down to read it correctly. Will definitely keep it and it also looks great on the worktop.
Looked around at many kitchen scales, this one is exactly what I liked and wanted. The separate top bit is good for weighing and emptying into a saucepan bowl etc as it is oval in shape, and because it is oval, it turns upside down and fits on the scale for storage. Also like the fact that can use the scale with your own bowls, and can reset the scale to cancel the weight of my bowl, so only weights what you put in it and not the bowl.
I would have given these scales 5 gold stars overall except for one thing – I find the bowl a bit small when weighing flour or sugar. Otherwise an excellent product.
These are the best scales I have ever owned. Having just rekindled my love of baking I needed new scales that were large numbers , easy to read & removable bowl this ticked all the boxes & is very stylish
I’m a big fan of the Joseph Joseph products. I have recently added this to my collection and I think it works great! Easy to use and to change the settings.
Easy to clean and store. The readout is very easy to read on the scales I have. The readout is on the side so you just need to stand back a little when weighing out you ingredients. Not such a difficulty
Look grea
Battery goes quick. Boyfriend was complaining that I could have had cheaper scales. But so far he has various biscuits like ginger biscuits and pineapple cake so he is smiling. It’s accurate and easy to use.
I’ve had these scales for two weeks and used them daily to.weigh for recipes and weighing my food (diet!)
I can’t fault them. Others say the display doesn’t last long but I’ve not found that at all. I have to turn mine off. What I likeis you only need a gentle touch to go back to O or change weight measures. No matter how big plate or bowl you can see the display, you may need to look under but that’s hardly a chore!
I like the fact you just flip the top over and you have a bowl. Can’t fault it. Well done Joseph and Joseph!
I love this little set of scales, and it matches the rest of my kitchens utensils. The only problem is that the screen can be a little hard to read unless you crouch down so it is almost at eye level.
This set of digital scales replaced an old analogue scale that I have had for nearly two decades. The J&J scale is really well thought out, well made and easy to use. This is very typical of the J&J brand to be honest.
Great scales except the display is hard to read in bright sunlight and from a full standing position. Love the fact you only need to brush the buttons to change units or zero it. Very sensitive, so accurate weights can be achieved. Easy to clean.
I returned my scales and purchased the ‘Salter Aquatronico Glass Platform Electronic Kitchen Scales’

which I much preferred. However, these Joseph Joseph scales are a perfect addition to any kitchen. The ability to use the built in bowl or use your own bowls is very practical and the scales are very accurate. As a keen calorie counter they easy to use interface and clear display made working out calories easy.
The reason I returned my product is because I didn’t need the built in bowl and found that the ‘touch’ buttons weren’t as responsive as proper physical buttons. This is personal preference, however, and may not be an issue for you.
I would definitely recommend this product to anyone interested in an easy to use, accurate set of scales.
I have a little side line of making cakes but not totally confident to bake without scales. I was using a electronic scales before and a friend had the other oval shaped scales which was fantastic so it was easy to go for this product. Sadly, on the day I was going to use the scales the batteries were dead and had to run out to the shops to replace what came with the scales. This would have got 5 stars as I have an on-going affair with jj.
So word to the wise, have batteries on standby.
