The only thing I don't like a whole lot about this scale is the size of the platform. It weighs up to 86 pounds, but the platform is only 6x7 and right above the read out. If you have a larger box on it you can't see the read out. You can put something on the platform to raise your box, but then it is a question of balancing the larger box. It does have its uses, but if you need to weigh larger, bulkier items, you might want to look for a larger scale dimension wise.

It's easy to use, the perfect size for a desk, and can handle heavy packages. Contrary to the listing however, it is NOT accurate to within 0.1oz. It's barely accurate to 1oz. The same envelope weighed multiple times will have a variance of as much as 0.4oz. This is not really a problem when shipping packages, but when you're buying postage for envelopes, this makes a difference. I've had 2 letters sent back for insufficient postage. Now I have been padding my weights with .5oz just so the letters don't get returned for postage. I'm very disappointed. I wish I could return it. I bought it SPECIFICALLY because it was advertised as being accurate to within 0.1oz.

Once I got more involved in selling online, I saw a need for a postal scale. This one was not expensive and it is accurate; I checked the weight of my packages during the first few weeks of using it. It can handle anything from a letter to boxes larger than the scale. The "hold" button on the side keeps the weight light from going off when you lift the box off.

I just bought this scale because mine had died. This scale is about the size of a regular book. It runs on 3AAA batteries or a plug. They shipped it across the U.S. to me in 3 days!!! The dials are white and large so it's easy to read (for us baby-boomers). It beeps when I turn it on and beeps when I turn it off, so I know it's working. Best of all, it weighs up to 85 pounds and takes up no space at all on my shipping table. What is there not to love!!! I only paid $11 plus shipping. I love this scale!!! My other one had gray letters and I could never read them and I had to fight with it to get it to work. This one is a dream. You will not regret it. It comes in colors too or black and silver. Best scale I've ever owned. Will get a lot of ebay use out of it. Love it, love it!!!!Read full review

For the price, this is a steal! The quality of this product is amazing and works great. It is easy to use and the flip top comes in handy for weighing multiple large letter packages. You can operate this scale with batteries so it is portable. Loved it so much I bought a second one.
