A must buy for curious kiddos!
Bought this for my curious ten year old son who is weighing and comparing everything he possibly can. Liquid, candies, small items... He's thrilled! They abuse the set has taken, id say it is holding up extremely well.

Great first balance for young learners
This is a great first balance. We are using it for some Kindergarten math and it works very well to see what weighs more. The clear plastic containers are removable.

Great for young kids
I liked this scale for small kids. The buckets come out so they can be cleaned or filled. They are clear so you can see through them. This makes it fun and exciting to compare items - are bear counters heaver than car counters. How many drops can you put in the scale to match the weight of a domino? Which apple weighs more, red, green or yellow? It was awesome fun for the kids.

As advertised
I used it to help teach more than and less than to preschoolers. They really enjoyed using this especially when they got to pick up the buckets and dump them out. It’s also easy to clean, holds together pretty well since mine got shoved off a table on accident. All in all I’d say it’s a good product.

Excellent for comparing many things
This tool is great for comparing many different physical objects and amounts. Its great for comparing similar objects when working math with little kids. it works great even with liquids.

Does the job for a preschool class
I bought this for our child care center as our old one had broken. Met all my expectations and the kids love it. It can be a bit tricky for the kids to level out on their own but they don’t mind.

Not a bad purchase.
I like this product, good quality. It’s a great toy to teach the concept of balance but I wish it had a bit more height for range of motion when balancing. It’s mostly good for balancing small items.
