Lakeland Add & Weigh Scale

I absolutely love these scales, i have had may digital scales in the past and i always find that they don't weigh things properly. But when i saw these i thought i would give them a try, from the first time i used them i loved them. i am old fashioned i dont use grams i use oz, so these are perfect for me. the oz side is so easy to read, the grams side is harder to read but i never use grams so it doesn't bother me at all. the bowl is a very decent size so its perfect for weighing large amounts. these are the best scales ive had and im never going back to digital scales again

I have to agree with the previous reviewer- very difficult to read, also the marker appears to be slanted so I don't know which bit I should be looking at. The surface on which the bowl stands doesn't seem flush either (a definite incline).

This review is for an older version of this product

These scales have a large bowl, which is good and it's a great feature that by twisting the lower part you can put the scales back to zero if you want to add more ingredients. However, I wouldn't recommend these scales as it is extremely hard to read the weight. I ended up screwing up my eyes, guessing and hoping that the quantity was correct.

I also bought these, but did not use them straight away and it is only recently i have started using them and i cannot read the scales and have also found the bowl has gone old looking after only using it half a dozen times or so, quite disappointed and wouldn't recommend these scales. I did like the way the scales could be turned round.

The scales work well apart from the bowl.....Mine was used for the first time today and when I put fruit into it the plastic seemed to start to melt. The citrus juice in the orange I was using cut into the plastic and I was unable to clean it off. I can't understand how the bowl can be diswasher safe when this happened from using the scales for measuring out ingredients which it is supposed to be used for.I have shopped at Lakeland for many years and been happy with past products, this is the first time I have had a problem with a lakeland product and was dissapointed.
