Accurate, Durable, and Multipurpose
This scale works very well and has held up over the years. I’ve had it for quite a while now, and it still performs just as reliably as when I first purchased it. It’s versatile enough to use for a variety of purposes — I’ve weighed everything from plants to food with accurate results every time. It’s simple, dependable, and definitely worth recommending if you’re looking for a long-lasting, multipurpose scale. TL;DR: Reliable, accurate, and durable — works great for both food and plants, even after years of use.

compact size, accurate, sturdy little scale
This is a good little scale, especially for the price. I've had it for over a year and its never given me any issues. Honestly, I've never calibrated it, but I've "tested" it by comparing it to my other scale and it seems equally accurate. That being said, I use it to weigh small amounts of food and consistency is what's most important to me and it definitely seems to be consistent. -it is sensitive in that breathing over scale will cause weight to change. make sure to put it on a solid level surface away from drafts -auto shutoff in a good amount of time; long enough to weigh what you need, but not so long that its wasting batteries -batteries are AAA, so inexpensive and not difficult to find, and last quite a while -compact size and discreet in design -the lid is a little flimsy and you have to press hard to get it to open and close securely, but its not a huge deal as I haven't had any problems with it breaking and I'm not very ginger in handling it -it can be a little annoying to clean, as the weighting surface is not removable and crumbs/dust collect around and under it

7 YEARS LATER
Actually I bought it 6 years, 11 months, and 21 days ago...I may as well be exact as this scale...Back then it cost $16.35 + $5.58 shipping since I didn't have Prime yet...I'd gladly pay the same amount for another one, but this one still functions as if it was brand new... Some reasons why this is a kickass scale, whether old or new : -The blue backlighting is a discrete convenience... -Two AAA batteries last a very long time... -Even if it DID eat batteries, the chamber in back holds a spare set... -If I didn't know how to use it, all I'd have to do is look at the lid/tray... -Still accurate to within 1/100 of a gram, according to my other scales... -Fits in a jeans pocket no problem, and goes wherever I go... -Doesn't need constant calibration...(Haven't calibrated it this YEAR, but it's still dead on) -Tare function comes in very handy when weighing hundreds of pills at once... -Didn't cost much, so I don't really care if it gets a bit banged around... -The fact that it CAN get banged around... A few things I've learned : -It must be on a flat, stable surface or it won't read right... -The heavier you can make that surface the better, even if it's just a large book... -To get the best accuracy, press down a little (as lightly as possible) when placing on whatever you are weighing...Don't know why this works, but it does... -Adjust the position so that the majority of the mass is resting on the center of the weighing platform... -To clean, breathe on the metal and wipe with something that won't leave traces, such as a shop rag, eyeglass cloth, etc. while the scale is off...I usually do this a few times... -A bill from your wallet should weigh exactly 1 gram, and makes for a quick tray with plenty of shape options...A fast tool... Difficult to go wrong with AWS...Employ common sense and it works fine... HIGHLY RECOMMENDED Hopes this helps... GOOD LUCK !!!

AWS-100 Digital Scale - Excellent - EZ Sell
This review is for the American Weigh Scales (AWS) AWS-100 digital scale. The ad was labelled "AMW-100" but the correct model name is "AWS-100". I purchased the scale from EZ Sell via Amazon. It was shipped by EZ Sell and it arrived in only 3 days from the order date with standard (free) shipping. I received the silver scale as advertised---it is available in black from other sellers. The AWS-100 has a maximum capacity of 100 grams and a sensitivity of 0.01 grams. Most scales like this are calibrated with a weight equal to the scale's maximum capacity and a suitable 100 gram calibration weight was included by the seller. This was a major reason why I chose to buy from EZ Sell as opposed to another seller. As others have reported, the weight is provided in a tiny ziplock bag that is quite flimsy. I recommend getting a heavier ziplock for storage since the one provided tears easily. I tested the calibration weight with another AWS scale (that was already calibrated) and it read exactly 100.0 grams. Then I tested the new AWS-100 scale. The calibration weight read 100.24 grams. The rated tolerance for the AWS-100 at 100 grams is 0.02 grams which means that the scale should read from 99.98 to 100.02 grams. The AWS-100 instructions said that it is normal to recalibrate the scale whenever it is moved or shipped to a new location. It was extremely easy to calibrate using the instructions provided. The scale now reads a perfect 100.00 grams with the calibration weight. The AWS-100 works very well. It is fast and very sensitive---gently breathing on it will cause the reading to increase a few hundredths of a gram. The LCD readout is easy to read. The features work very well: It is easy to change units (g, oz, gn, ct) with the "Mode" button or zero a tray with the "Tare" button. I was very glad to see that the non-removable hinged cover lays completely flat when opened so it is totally out of the way in case you need to lay an oversized tray or object (like an envelope) on the scale platform. Having an accurate scale with a 0.01 gram sensivity that can be easily calibrated by the user is awesome for this price (US$16.99 with the 100 gram calibration weight). It includes a 10-year warranty from the manufacturer, AWS. It seems to offer excellent value and I'm very satisfied with it. I highly recommend it.

Good Product !

Very precise and looks sturdy enough to last for years to come. My only complain is I wish it could weight more than 350g, but advertise for a max of 300g so I knew when I bought it.

Una excelente gramera, ha durado mas de un año y hasta fecha aún sirve, duradera y muy comoda, nada grande y todo excelente

Impeccable. Je l'utilise pour peser du houblon pour le brassage de bière. La fonctionnalité de remise à zéro lorsqu'il y a un récipient dessus est parfaite.
