1000g x 0.01g Precision Balance - Let me start by saying I am an expert on balances. I have been working with them for many years in a professional setting. I have worked with every one of the top manufacturers and have purchased systems up to 6 places and costing over $100k . This is an amazing deal, and it over delivered in performance. I had low expectations when I bought it, but for the money, it was worth a shot. I am more than pleased. If this is suited to your application, don't hesitate to buy it. Out of the box, after warm-up and initial calibration, the results were outstanding. Using a calibrated weight set, readings were taken at 2g 10g 20 g 100g 200g 500g and 1000g. The results showed accuracy to be within .01g and .01g for repeatability. It has a moderate response time and is quick to settle and read. It does not have any options to change the speed of response or stability, but you would not expect that at this price, and for most applications, it is not needed.Don't listen to the negative response of the guy who thinks he knows what he is talking about because he absolutely does not. He states out of the box, it wasn't accurate. Well, you need to let it sit and acclimate to the environment for 15-30 minutes ( all balances need to do this ) then you need to do calibration using the included weight. You need to calibrate any time you move it and you may have to recalibrate at times should the environmental conditions change. Thats why you should check it every morning before you use and if it is not right on, recalibrate. If he did that, it would have been right on. Next, he states he is having trouble seeing changes when adding .01g of mass. If that's the accuracy he needs, then this is not the balance for him. He needs a .001 threes place balance. Not the balance fault. It is his for not understanding what he needs. Next, he states it was sent with the wrong weight. It needs 200g but sent 500g. Wrong again, you can use many different weights as it auto-senses and calibrates off the weight. For a 1000g balance, 500g is a good choice and was included. Finally, he states the bubble sensor is off and that is not the case again. He added some line levels to the case and said it doesn't match up to the bubble. he is assuming the case was manufactured and installed level to the load cell which it probably wasn't. Why would it be? You have a bubble level that was installed level to the loadcell so, use it. The only accurate statement in his review was that it was not the right accuracy for his application. This is not the fault of the balance. This balance performs to spec. He needed and different balance entirely. The product should have got 5 stars and his review should get one star.I have not been paid or coerced into providing this review. In fact, I have never talked to the company. I don't do many reviews but this was just so good and the value so strong I felt it was worth my time to pass on my experience.

The weighing plate does not fit into the base making it very unstable as a result defying the purpose of the balance. I contacted the company to see if they had a solution to the problem. They did not offer a solution instead pointed fingers to say that we did not put the correct weighing plate on the balance. The balance was new in the box with only 1 weighing. Unsure where they invented the second weighing plate from. At the end I returned it back. Was a waste of our time.

Definitely worth the money!FYI it has to be plugged in, it doesn't take batteries but that would be cool. Even so its definitely worth it.

The original product and replacement weighing tray did not fit the spud on the scale. I wrote a negative review. As life would have it--Fristaden's shipment of a replacement scale was a bit slower (probably due to the condition of the world) that my review. This is to set the record straight: Fristaden completely made good on replacing the product and I am pleased to announce that the scale works perfectly and the accuracy is incredible. Thanks!

I've tried for many many years to get a consistent and good cup of coffee in the morning. The coffee sites all agree one absolutely must weigh the coffee grounds before brewing to get repeatedly that perfect cup of coffee. So tare the filter holder with a filter in it to zero, add ground coffee, stop adding at the proper weight. For me it's 45gm coffee, 36 oz water. Perfect coffee every day. Wow!

accurate and easy to use.

Plastic body does not feel particularly durable. Calibrated with a set, accurate to +-0.01, as advertised. Given the price, it appears to be a quality product.
