OXO Good Grips 11-Pound Stainless Steel Kitchen Scale with Pull-Out Display - Black

I recently started a quest to lose some weight and as part of that wanted to start logging all my food in an app. After some research I decided to give this one a try. I have always been happy with Oxo products and this is no exception. It is a good sized scale and I can still read the display even with a full sized plate sitting on it. I like that it is easy to zero and easy to switch between pounds, ounces, and grams. I also like that the output keeps displaying for plenty of time to make entries in my app. It looks nice, has a good range and seems durable. It's not cheap but I believe that it is worth the price.

It’s stainless steel. I wish it could be a different color. So McDonald’s. I prefer bright, cheery, happy stuff. But my options were black and stainless, so okay, fine, stainless it is. It’s a really good scale. I tested it for accuracy with weights. I got the one that holds extra weight because I want to put heavy bowls on it sometimes and fill them with flour or meat. I love that it can handle that. It is simple to use and easily toggles between metric and regular weights. It holds the weight on the screen nicely so you get time to write it down if you need to do that. It’s so easy to use that I tossed the explanation. I don’t have to re-read it. But the BEST part is the little pull-out display thingie. I LOVE THAT THING. No contortions required to check the weight. No button to lock. No nothing. I can just SEE the flippin thing. Alleluia. Oxo is generally reliable but they really knocked it out of the park here. (Would it kill them to offer one that is a less depressing color?)

This has immediately tuned into my favorite scale I’ve ever used. I wasn’t aware that there could be such large differences between kitchen scales, and have used a cheap one for a long time. I finally decided to get a new one though after seeing this one recommended in a baking book for its pull out display ability when measuring large bowls. Immediately the build and heft of the scale out of the box felt very high quality. It doesn’t feel cheap like my previous scale. I really like how large the weighing surface is, and the stainless steel looks really nice. The extending display is super amazing to have when I need it, and has really nice magnets to hold it in the proper place when not being used. The display is big and readable, and very bright as well. There are some other functionalities and thoughtful design touches that this scale has that make it much nicer than my other scale as well, as OXO is known for. The modes of weighing are really versatile and simple, you can set it to show pounds and ounces or just ounces, or kilograms and grams or just grams, which is really nice to use depending on how the recipe phrases weights without having to do any math in your head (very easy for grams I know, but still). Overall, I love this scale and if you don’t have a kitchen scale, definitely get this one over any others. If you have a kitchen scale that’s getting old or not working the best, or you just want a nice looking upgrade, this scale will give you everything you’re looking for as well.

Works great, face pulls out plenty far enough. Well made and weighs accurately and quickly

Very simple to use. Variable weight units available. The pullout display is very handy as it allows using large bowls. Good quality, construction, and easy to clean.

I purchased this scale to replace a Cuisinart food scale that failed and would no longer turn on. The pull-out display is the major feature differentiator that sets this scale apart and solves a problem I had with my last scale -- not being able to read the display due to a large bowl. The display is held in-place by two small magnets, and pulls in and out easily though I would like if the magnets were slightly stronger. A cable keeps the display connected to the scale unit and the display moves around freely while tethered by this cable. The scale does a "3-2-1" countdown when you first power it on, but once it's ready this scale is much faster than my previous scale. Gram measurements are updated near-instantaneously, whereas a delay with my old scale had me pause for a second before adding ingredients. Now I can stream water into a bowl and see the numbers tick up in realtime. I didn't expect this, and it's a nice upgrade. The top plate is removable, but it feels wrong, like you shouldn't be pulling so hard and you're going to break a clip or cause bending of the level platform. It can be surface washed in this way. I liked that my old Cuisinart had a removable metal cover plate, and THAT could be removed, dishwashed, etc. In ths case of this OXO, the entire scale bed is removed. The whole scale is also larger than my previous, which could be bad (it takes up more space in my drawer) but sometimes is good (the platform is large enough to handle larger amounts or meat, dough, etc without needing a separate plate). In summary, this scale is expensive for what it is, but the features I mention make it feel like it's enough of a quality of life improvement that anyone who uses a food scale for a lot of their cooking, this is worth the splurge.

This is the second OXO scale I've bought. The first one stopped working after about eight years, which is a pretty good lifetime. I like the negative weight measurements because it's good for measuring things like how much peanut butter I've removed from the jar, which is much easier than weighing how much peanut butter is added on a piece of bread. (Not all OXO scales have the negative weight display like this one). One feature the new model has that I really like is a "low battery" indicator. On the older unit, there was no warning when the battery was depleted and the unit just stopped functioning, which was awkward when the battery died in the middle of the process of measuring out something.

Really like this scale it’s solid, easy to use, decent size, quick response and gives you time to tend to other things and not lose registered weight. Tried 3 other scales and this is a keeper!

This scale does all the things a good scale should do. It is very easy to read - I have vision problems and I can see the numbers well. It switches to grams, kilos , ounces and pounds. The scale remains on for a good amount of time so when I have to find more of an ingredient, the scale doesn’t turn itself off so I lose the weight information. Last, I use large bowls sometimes so being able to pull out the display is extremely helpful! I highly recommend this product. OXO continues to impress.

C'est le nouveau membre de la famille de mes ustensiles de cuisine. Je la kiffe

La báscula OXO good-grips es excepcional, revisé demasiados análisis realizados por colectivos de cocinas industriales estadounidenses con la finalidad de encontrar una báscula que fuera precisa, y duradera para uso continuo en la cocina, teniendo en cuenta que pueden haber derrames, y exposición a calor y frío, y esta báscula fue reportada como capaz de sobrevivir a ese tipo de exposición. La primera duró alrededor de 7-8 años, y sobrevivió una inundación accidental. Entonces considero que si cumple con esos reportes. El único “downside” que le encuentro es que el modelo previo permitía retirar el plato de metal para lavarlo, y colocarlo de nuevo, este modelo nuevo no lo permite y eso a mi se me hace menos conveniente. Pero confío mucho que la marca mantiene los mismos estándares de calidad y precisión previos.

Very useful product. Buttons could have been less clunky and labelled to indicate functions but otherwise it’s a good addition to your kitchen especially if you like to bake.
