Question: What type & size battery is needed>Would like to order backup when ordering the scale.thank you
Document: The scale is glass-topped, easy to clean , and we have found it to be accurate (repeatable readings). It is about the size of an iPad, and easily stored. Runs on CR2032 3V lithium batteries. Not a typical battery but just order a few with the scale to have as needed. Scale turns itself off in about 60 seconds, or anytime manually. No wires to deal with, portable.
I would recommend this product for anybody who'd like to add an effective, yet good looking product to their kitchen. I love the advice that I get from the sellers on how to best use my kitchen sale and tips that'd speed up the cooking process. Some improvements that could be made to the scale would be to increase the time needed for the scale to go idle. Sometimes I'd be finding things in the cupboard and when I return to my scale I find that it has shut off.
We unfortuneately had to discard our scale due to a battery issue. The company was good about refunding our money but - FINESSEUR didn't send us a new one (for our frustration) as they said they would when they responded to our intial review. Once again another AMAZON affiliated company that DOESN'T OWN UP TO IT'S PROMISES!!! !
sleek.. not disimilar to how an ipad is sleek and pretty. The TARE feature was needed, but what I love most is being able to easily change measurement criteria (ok.. I haven't used that yet, but I bet I will)  I also like that it is all one piece.. no issue with putting food directly on the scale and wiping clean
I was not at all familiar with this brand, but it turns out to be a very fine digital kitchen scale. What do I like about it?- intuitive controls. with only two buttons to choose from, no written instructions are needed- attractive design and easy to clean surface- large legible readout- rapid tare- stores flat and has a small footprintThere really are no downsides to the product.
I'm using the scale to weigh my portafilter with espresso coffee grounds. The scale isn't working as well as I would like it to. After weighing the portafilter and grinding the beans the scale will zero out or shut off before I can weigh the portafilter with the ground coffee.
Personally, I like buttons that have a tactile response when you push them. These do not, but they function perfectly well and match the overall design of the scale.All things considered I would rate this 4.75/5, but that option isn't available so I defaulted to 5/5.
I use it for measuring portions for Weight Watchers diet. I add the allotted portion to my plate, zero the scale, then add the next dish in the meal. Without the scale, I was guessing and like most people actually eating a lot more than I thought I was.It would be just as simple to use while preparing a dish.
Like everyone else is saying here. The auto shutoff is really lame. Is it so difficult to have set a longer time for the auto shut off? Or a memory of the last setting? Or a selectable auto shut off? I doubt the designer of this unit has ever even used it. If he had, he would not have made such a piss poor decision for the auto shut off in his design. Other than that it&#8217;s a great little scale.
The lcd display is great, very readable. The weight sensor is very accurate. More units of measurement to choose upon. The only thing I did not like is that it automatically turns off in just a minute when left inactive. Would be great if there is a 1-5 minute option to choose from.
Answer: I checked the 1-p. user manual that comes with the scale, and it says "Battery: 2xCR2032," which I assume means it takes two CR 2032 batteries. They're cheap and you can get them at Amazon; I checked, and found 'em at this url:http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_ss_i_1_6?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords;=cr2032%20battery&sprefix;=CR2032%2Caps%2C560BTW, you'll probably notice this when you read the manual, but you can extend the battery life of this gorgeous, great little machine (I've had mine for months, use it multiple times a day,  and am still in love with it) by pressing the right hand button to switch it off when you're done with it, rather than waiting for it to turn itself off. Obvious, probably, but I might not have done it without having read it and made a point to remember it.  Hope this helps.
