The Oxo is a great scale.

Of you’re looking to accurately weight single gram mounts like letters, no kitchen scale is going to work great. Scales only work well in small ranges, kitchen scales are great for tens or hundreds of grams, but aren’t gram accurate. You need a separate small scale if gram accurately is important, no single scale at a reasonable price is going to work well for both.

I prefer Taylor scales. That’s their specialty.

Thanks for the recommendation. Which models do you recommend for a kitchen scale that goes up to about 11-12 pounds?

We have an OXO kitchen scale and really like it!! Last year we had an issue with the scale and the digital screen no longer showed the weight. We reached out to OXO and told them about the issue. They replaced the scale with just a few questions answered and we no longer had the receipt.

Good to hear. So they must have a lifetime warranty like their other non-electric products, huh?

I have a scale from accuteck. It has a 110 pound capacity, graduation if 0.1oz, it can read in pounds and ounces, ounces, and grams. It can be plugged into an outlet or run on a battery. What is really nice is that it doesn't turn off automatically like other scales.

I use it for a business I work with, but it works like a dream in the kitchen too

Thanks for the recommendation!

Taylor and KitchenAid both appear to make dual platform kitchen scales. If I was trying to buy a nice one and was willing to spend Oxo money on it, that's what I'd get. I've used a number of 1g-5kg (11lb) kitchen scales and I always find them to be inaccurate on the 1-15g side. Having a dual platform scale lets them use the second smaller platform to measure in .1g increments, which makes the ~5g specific increments baking recipes sometimes come in easier to keep to.
