Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Polder Pocket Digital Food Scale - Silvertone, 932Customer Review: A little twitchy Summary: 4 Stars
I purchased this scale for my wife to use while we were travelling. She uses a food scale for portion control and wanted to have a scale while we were on a cruise. (A time for portion control if ever there was one...) We found that the scale was too sensitive for use on the ship, as the ship movement caused the readings to jump all over and not settle down. At home in the kitchen, it works well, though for a food scale one needs to consider if they need hundredths of an ounce. Also, if one is at home in the kitchen, this may not be the scale that you reach for.
All, in all, it is a solid piece of equipment that works as advertised and is handy and discreet for use when away from home. If you are going to be in a place where there will not be a sturdy, steady place to do your weighing, you may want to look for a mechanical scale that is not so sensitive.
