i am enjoying this scale it isn’t totally accurate as the same thing can be said to be a gram or so different within a few minutes but the differences are not at all worrisome if you are worried about a gram either way this isn’t the right sort of scale for you for cooking though this is wonderful i have used it particularly to weigh the various things i put in my morning cereal bowl so that the concoction is more or less the same every morning and is reasonably in line with what the box says is one serving since my cereal bowls are large it is all too easy to pour far too much into the bowl if you don’t weigh or measure the ingredientsbeyond simple weighing probably the most useful feature for me is the zero button you can put an empty bowl on the scale zero it out and then easily get the weight of what you put into the bowl the scale ignores the weight of the bowl itself as you put the ingredients into the bowl you can zero it out after each one to get the weight of each ingredient separately without any arithmetic this feature is especially welcome first thing in the morning when i am too sleepy to do the most elementary calculations correctlyit is also helpful to be able to weigh portions as you divide up meat or something else such as a big bowl of salad into single servings since i live alone and often need to do this something to allow me to make the servings equal is invaluableof course the scale is also useful for noncooking tasks when you need to know the weight of something small for instance are you sure that envelope you are putting in the mail is really under an ounce put it on the scale to be sure how much postage you need changing from one unit of measurement to another is just a matter of touching a button in this case perhaps several times as the function circles through the various measures available rather than jumping directly to the one you wantturning on or off is a matter of touching a button no need to press just touch operation is quick  most functions are virtually instantaneous  the exception is that the unit “thinks” a bit when weighing the weight changes a little over a few seconds so waiting until it stabilizes instead of taking the first weight displayed is a good idea if you are looking for an accurate result the change isn’t large however so if getting the most accurate possible weight is not important to you there is no strong reason not to take the first displayed weight just know that what displays in the first second is probably slightly offcharging which i did need to do after a few months is much quicker than i expected i put it on the charger thinking that it would take hours but it charged in much less i didn’t note the exact time so i can’t say just how long it took but i remember being quite surprised at how fast it wasoverall i am more than pleased i hope the unit continues to function so well
