Great scale for traveling and camping
Exactly what I was looking for! It is perfectly sized for travel, pairing it with the VSSL pour over system. It seems sturdy so far, and measured against the Fellow scale that is 2x the size and weight, its accuracy seems right on. It is easy to use, the display is big for such a small scale - nice work! Highly recommend!

dead battery in a month UPDATE -UP RATED
I have bought several of these from other sellers. The batteries all failed eventually. I really liked this one. With the glass top, the slightly larger body and the higher price I thought this one might be different. I destroyed one of the other ones to see if I could see the battery, and failed.The battery indicator started flashing on this one after two weeks. I charged it overnight and and it was still flashing. I charged it for another night - I read somewhere to not use a "fast charger" but no definition of how fast. So I used an old Apple original cube because I don't they get any slower than that. Eventually I used it with light flashing for two more weeks before it quit altogether. So I searched most of the other similar ones here - (and there a lot of them) to try again. All of them had reviews mentioning early battery failure. The 4 star ratings appeared to come from people that wrote them after a few uses. I was about to give up and use a huge kitchen scale. But in one of the reviews a guy writes that these don't work with "standard USB C cables". ???? USB C IS A STANDARD!! Anything else is not USBC. Just on a whim, because I had run out of options, I looked around and found a cable that came with one the scales I had bought. I charged it overnight as before. Next morning it came on and the light was not flashing. How many people on this planet have iPhones or something else with a USB C cable and it's already plugged into a charger, and naturally used it to charge this scale rather than use the cheap short one that came with the scale and came without a charger? I'm not changing my rating from 1 star because they must know that and should have a sticker on the front of the scale saying to use only their cheap nonstandard cable.I will look up this review when it quits working for good. If it makes it past one year it will be my favorite scale. When I started this odyssey I had hoped for a couple of years. Now I will settle for one.I should note my main use: Aeropress, at least five or six times every day - weighing the Dose and monitoring the Brew Time. Almost any of these type things will work fine for that with a minimal countertop footprint...unless they fail.Update - Uprated: So. I recharged it with their cheap short cable. The charge lasted at least twice as long as the original charge it came with. The next time the charge light came on I watched it and it only took about an hour to charge up.I'm still mad that I threw two other ones away. But I have to uprate this from One Star to 5.I like it.It seems to be easier than the others to keep from going from grams to something else. And I wish the "auto" function would go away but it shows a big AUTO notice on the screen so it's hard to miss if you get it turned on accidentally. I only do americanos with my expresso machine so it wouldn't work with that anyway.Bottom line - this one is better than the others I've bought hands down. I hope I don't have to buy another soon. It's smaller than the largest one, nice glass top, and more readable display. Most of these ads look the same but they are all different in some ways. All of them are repeatable so if you use a dosing cup for instance it weighs the same every time to the 10th g, or minus g if it' removed.I can only attest to Aeropress or Kalita pour overs but it's the best of the four I have tried.

Good product
This scale is small and light which is good so that it does not take up a lot space for my daily expresso making. The scale seems to be accurate as well but it’s very sensitive. If you take off the funnel from the basket, it may weight more because it redistributes the weight and somehow messes up the algorithm.

Decent scale for the price
I like good espresso and cappuccino, and the best way to get it consistently is to weigh the beans, weigh the ground beans and weigh the extracted coffee. This scale lets you do that. It has pretty much all the functions of name brand scales that cost two times or more. The timer that starts upon the first drops of espresso in the cup tends to start a bit late, but I time my shots from the start of extraction cycle, not from the first coffee, so not a big deal. One complaint is that it is a little too easy to switch accidentally from grams to ounces without noticing, but that's probably as much on me as on the scale design.No, it doesn't connect to your phone, it doesn't save weights for various coffees, and it doesn't beep when you reach a particular pre-set, but, really, who needs that? It's reasonably accurate, has decent battery life, easy to operate, and it's affordable. What else do you need?

Perfect Little Coffee Scale
I wasn’t sure if I needed a scale just for coffee, but I’m so glad I got this one. It’s small, lightweight, and super easy to use. The measurements are very precise (down to 0.1g), which makes a huge difference for pour-over brewing. The built-in timer is a nice bonus — I don’t have to fumble with my phone while making coffee anymore.The surface wipes clean easily, and the scale tucks away in a drawer when I’m not using it. For the price, it feels like a professional tool. If you’re serious about making consistent coffee at home, this little scale is worth it!

Perfect scale for our coffee set up
I had a few specific things I was looking for in a scale and one of them was I wanted it to be white to match our coffee area and I wanted to be small since I only needed it to measure out beans before grinding. This one turned out to be a great purchase. It also has a timer function if you want to use it for brewing and keeping track of how long but we only needed it to measure out coffee beans. It’s super easy to use and I love that. It’s rechargeable with a standard USB-C cable. It has an on and off switch on the side, but we just leave it in the own position because it will automatically go to sleep after a certain amount of time. To wake it up you just simply press a button. It seems super accurate And is easy to clean. It came with a little silicone mat that you could put on top but we aren’t using it in our set up. Great scale for the Price since there are some that are stupid expensive compared to this one and they all do just about the same thing.

Impressive Scale
Really amazing scale. Small and easy to operate. Measures down to even one bean. I’m particularly impressed with the automatic feature of placing it under the espresso cup on the machine, and it turns on time and weight automatically and turns off automatically. Incredible piece of technology, especially for the money.

Works great for a beginner like me
I'm new to the espresso machine world. I was a barista in high school, but everything was professionally calibrated. Having to measure the amount of grounds and verifying the size of the shot is new to me.I'm using this scale to measure both the weight of the grounds and then I'm using the auto timer feature to calibrate the amount of liquid.I like how small this scale is. It's working very well for me.
