Arboleaf Smart Food Kitchen Scale, 22lb Digital Food Scale with Nutritional Calculator, USB Rechargeable, Smart Weighing with App for Macro, Keto, Calorie, Cooking, Grams and Ounces, 0.1oz/0.5g, White

I only wanted a nice scale to weigh the coffee gound for espresso shots. This unit is not meant to fit on top of the drip tray of an espresso machine, and I did not have that task in mind for this scale. (I had bought a smaller model to perform that particular function).This Arboleaf scale is perfectly suited for my purpose in that it sits low and totally flat to the table, has near “mindless” operations for its control, a large attractive readable display, and is instantaneous in its measurement. I really wanted a simple and automatic “tare” funtion - which this unit performs masterfully on the fly.The glossy black finish is beautiful - and the display contrast is large, brilliant, and obvious. Unit selections (between oz, gram,etc.) require only a light “touch” of the finger - as do any of the desired control functions - and honestly - the well-written user manual was a true bonus. This scale is so very easy to operate - and shows you only what you want - such that it is intuitive.Reading the manual for any device is always a must - but the logical layout and simplicity of this scale is pleasantly appreciated.The Arboleaf performs fast, accurate, and is extremely easy to navigate. It is nice looking too - selling at a fair price. The dual power choice is optional - but I personally found that using the USB alone is adequate, and a single charge will probably last for months - (so the “user supplied” 5VDC wall brick is not really missed, at least not by me). I doubt I will need one.So I highly recommend this scale to anyone considering a unit of its profile and capabilities. I have selected it as the “best in class” for my personal needs, (and even returned others more expensive in cost, after a brief comparison).

1) Rating of 5. Good quality device, with helpful (unexpected) free app. App was very easy to access and use per the provided QR code. Suggest more recipes on the app be lower in calorie, and that “per portion” calories be denoted on initial screen, rather than full batch.2) Device is very easy to use. Very intuitive and easy to read, reset, etc. I like the shutoff after 60 seconds of non use, so no need to even bother with an off switch after use. Charging and setup were also a breeze. Cleaning is also simple3) I like the convenience of having this easy-to-use device readily available in my kitchen cabinet to weigh food portions. I also plan to use it with the tare function when baking this holiday season.

Loving the scale, once you place ur bowl or plate just tap again and goes back to 0 so u get the correct amount of oz and don’t have to do the math ! Now I can finally know the amount of my intake.

The media could not be loaded. Fantastic scale, easy to use. I gave it a 4 star based on the following minor design/engineered flaws. The most annoying flaw is the “Lo” notification, you never know when it will happen and the scale shuts down seconds later. This engineered flaw happens mostly when you are measuring a critical ingredient and you have to start over, very difficult when mixing wet ingredients with dry ingredients. The engineers should incorporate an amber light at a predetermined battery level way before the scale shut off. The second problem is why provide such a short charging cord? What a pain to read the scale upside down as it charges. Either lengthen the cord provided or incorporate a charging port on the other side of the scale.

I use this ALL the time, I love how small and sleek it is, easy to charge and battery lasts a good deal of time! Very light weight and easy to use, plus comes in bright cute colors!

This scale is very easy to use and clean. The weighing bed is flat, and the display is part of the bed so it is super easy to keep clean. I had a previous scale where the weighing platform was a separate piece that could come off, and this scale is much easier. The scale takes standard batteries. This scale comes with an app for logging food, which I downloaded. Even if you don’t want to log food, you should download the app. You can enter nutritional information for food, or scan it in via the bar code. It doesn’t have a huge database of foods, but you only need to add things once, and it’s very easy.Here’s the really great thing about this app – say you have a food with a serving size of 50 grams, and that serving size is 37 calories, you want to eat 100 calories worth of food, you just keep putting food on the scale until the app shows you that you reached 100 calories, no math involved. The app is a teeny bit cumbersome, but worth the effort. If you are trying to limit your food intake to a certain amount of calories, you can get an accurate account of what you are weighing right on your phone (through the app), and you don’t need to measure portion size, just weigh it – If you are a baker and follow recipes by using weights, this scale does a great job, letting you zero out after you add each ingredient. Following a recipe using ingredient weight is much more accurate and faster than measuring everything out, and easier on clean up.

Works really well, charged really fast too which was nice. It’s helped me with tracking my macros and calories!

So such bad quality. I know you get what you pay for, but goodness I did not expect for it to be this bad of quality kind of felt like it was a kids toy.
