Digital Multifunction Kitchen and Food Scale

Eating a few extra ounces here and there might be what’s standing between you and your health and fitness goals. The food scale is my friend in the kitchen – the more I learn about nutrition the better I’ve become about making good food choices, however portion control is still a work in progress for me. Eating big portions of healthy, food can equal weight gain too – the food scale helps me keep that in check.

Where to find Accurate, easy-to-use digital kitchen scale weighs up to 11 lbs. (5050 grams) in precise graduations of 0.05 oz. (1 gram)???

Digital Multifunction Food Scale teaches you to focus on consuming healthy portions versus counting calories that can often become obsessive - plus the food portion size guide provides education on the nutrients you need. The tare functionality is great for measuring portions quickly and including multiple foods in one plate like when prepping ingredients for a recipe.

Now that you are reading this review, you should already know why you need to buy the best digital kitchen scale. An accurate kitchen scale will also be a handy addition to the inventory of anyone interested in weight loss or bodybuilding. With countless food scale models made available by various brands, it may take time to decide which specific scale will best answer your needs.

Ozeri Touch Professional Digital Kitchen Scale, This is one of the best selling scales, apparently catering to people who want something that looks nicer than the rest. Ozeri Scale features a weighing capacity of 5250 grams in one gram increments, ability to give readings in lbs, oz, kg and g, tare and auto turn-off functions. All of these are standard characteristics you see in most kitchen scales.

My only complaint thus far is the small size of the plate and the fact that the readout isn't slanted down enough to read when a large container is set on the plate. The scale looks sleek and smart and keeping it in your kitchen will surely make it a more handsome kitchen but reportedly the surface of the scale is easily scratched so be careful if scratches are going to be a big problem for you.

The accuracy of the scale is second only to EatSmarts scale. The scale uses lithium batteries, which are expensive instead of the cheaper AAA batteries. Ozeri Professional Kitchen Scale has an auto turn-off feature that switches the scale off after one minute to save energy. On the whole, Ozeri Touch Professional Digital Kitchen Scale is one of the best kitchen scales in the market but it has some issues that puts it behind EatSmart scales.

I had two EatSmart scales, so I was able to compare them side by side.

• Appearance: A matter of taste, but to my eye the EatSmart tear drop shape is nicer looking. It's also slightly cleaner looking. I notice that Ozeri has a different model that looks exactly like the the EatSmart model now at a slightly higher price point.
• Price: This scale was 15 dollars when I bought it. Way cheaper than the 25 dollars I paid for the EatSmart.
• Durability: While the Ozeri looks cheaper, I think it's actually slightly better designed. The function keys (Tare and Unit) are sealed and when you press them they always work.
