Hands down much more accurate than any non-digital scale previously used. Traveled with others that had non-digital and each one swore that they would be ordering their very own of this MYCARBON Digital Scale instead. Easy to travel with and keep on any trip too as it is quite durable. The settings can be switched from measuring in Kilograms or Pounds - which helps to avoid having to remember any conversion rates. If I had to select one negative factor using this scale, it's that if one does have heavier luggage, it does become a challenge to keep the luggage in place while waiting for the scale to get to the "hold" mode. By this I mean that one has to hold the luggage in place until the digital reading reads "hold". Once it does that, that is the final weight reading for your luggage. If it is a heavier piece, one will need to have quite strong arms to keep a heavier piece steady while the unit is measuring the weight. Other than that small minor part, this is one amazing scale that definitely measures accurately to relieve any worry about any excess baggage weight upon reaching the airport. Read more
What is in the box: > Scale - bubble wrapped > Instruction manual My Experience: I have used the product for only 3 days now and to check the accuracy, I actually started weighing luggage comparing it to the weight shown on a different scale and also started weighing stuff, weight of which was printed on the packaging. So the results are accurate. Till now the max. I have measured is 15kg (~33 lbs). The scale has the tare functionality and it is constructed out of plastic and stainless steel. What I like about this product: + Accurate weight reading + Clear display with bright backlight + Reasonable price + Easy to use with different weighing units + Lightweight and easy to carry I will use this product soon to weight my stuffed traveling baggage (~50 lbs). Hope it works fine later and I do not face the problems some people have mentioned in their reviews. I will definitely post an update, in case any major issues are found. Read more
Takes a moment to figure out which units of measure (LB/KG) setting you're on and using and how to change. Does NOT require an in-depth read of the manual though, so don't buy into the hype about "terrible manuals". Yes, the manual ain't great, but it doesn't stop you, this it's only so big a problem...guess it depends on how picky you are for the price. Anyway, this thing quickly, and by all accounts also accurately and repeatably (I swapped back and forth between 4 items to ensure I got both a good measurement, AND a repeatable number) measured weights up to 50LBS for me. I'm reasonably sure it will perform up to it's specified max, but I didn't test its limits. It did nicely from around 2 LBS up to about 50LBS though. I would say this is hard to beat for the price, and I like the handle/ergonomics on this one better than the nearest competitors- even the Amazon-preferred one has a hokey handle. Pleased with my choice. Read more
Works perfectly. Very small and light. Its accurate and easy to use. Best part if it, its cheap! Anything that does what it is supposed to do deserves 5 stars so that's what I give it! I love that it doesn't take up much room and it is very light for storing in my luggage. Great little scale! Read more
The luggage scale was as described. Delivery was within one day after ordering. The scale seems to be accurate and easy to use. The directions were easy to read and understand. The only suggestion I have about this scale is that it is not easy to hang from a rod and then attach the luggage to check weight. It keeps slipping off. I have to hold it and and hang luggage from the loop and then raise the scale so the luggage clears the ground. With a 40-50 lb suitcase this is not easy. I have seen other scales with an attachment so that you can hang it on a bar and then attach the suitcase. Read more
Good for weighing luggages for traveling domestic and international flights. I bought one for myself and gave one to my dad because he needed it too. Read more
This scale works. It can be in metric or pounds. Read more
I bought this scale for the intended use: measure my bag’s weight. It works fine but has some flaws: from time to time it can turn itself off. It also may tilt sometimes. When comes to precision, I would recommend you leave a good 5% cushion just in case. Said so, it works, it’s very useful and never had an issue using this scale for my trips. It's well built and battery holds well. Read more
