Kitchen scales (reviews and discussion)

In my opinion, the volume measurement option is generally complete nonsense, why measure the volume of water if 1 ml of water = 1 g?

That’s why I don’t use it.

I have such a scale POLARIS PKS0323DL I am very happy with them, they measure quickly, accurately, light, easy to use and store and inexpensive

Moved to Zelmer. These are excellent in every way. Only they don't have the "volume" option. Well, fuck with her, it didn't hurt, and I wanted to.

What model do you have?

I have had such a scale Vitek for a year. They work properly, but they have one big drawback: you need to weigh quickly enough, they turn off automatically. He hesitated a little, everything turned off. Sometimes you collect a mixture for baking, and it just turned off, you wonder how much, what was there ... It is very inconvenient. I will no longer buy scales working on this principle.

Explain to me how you can measure the volume of a liquid on a scale?

I had experience with SUPRA BSS-4070, weighed the varnish on it. For me personally, this model is associated with industrial scales. At work, everyone was satisfied, weighed quite accurately. After getting the varnish on the dial, they began to show worse, but all the same, the data could be disassembled without problems. Many scales have such a function, weighing a liquid, I wanted to purchase it with the same function. If it's not a secret, which model do you use?)

POLARIS PKS0323DL

I didn’t answer right away, because I went to deal with that Tefal.
There is no allowance for density there in real life when measuring volume. There is simply a recalculation of volume from standard and usual milliliters to some non-systemic units of measurement. For water. Well, like, how by weight from grams to ounces. In short, another option unnecessary for the Orthodox.

And in general, I think that it is quite difficult to measure volume in terms of weight, it does not matter what cm is converted into grams.

Happy New Year! Maybe someone from those who woke up and who knows the topic will answer - yesterday I had scales Tefal, compared with Zelmer, it looks like Zelmer grams is 5-7 more accurate. Zelmer is also 500 rubles cheaper. Can he return Tefal and take something else? The second scales are very necessary, we live in 2 houses.

It depends on what you weigh, in general 5-7 grams is a big error, for example yeast for a bread machine cannot be weighed on such scales

Basically, I need it for HP, Zelmer seems to have been working decently, but he's still new, since September. Tefal bought the Optiss model /

An error of 5-7 grams is a lot, especially if you weigh not flour, say, but yeast or something else that needs an accurate and small amount.
And you can check the accuracy of the weight by weighing coins - in the internet there is infa about the weight of the moment

It looks like Zelmer grams are 5-7 more accurate. Zelmer is also 500 rubles cheaper. Can he return Tefal and take something else?
The second scales are very necessary, we live in 2 houses.

I live in three houses. Take the second Zelmer without any fuss. I, too, first bought them second for a summer residence. I compared it with the already existing Tefal and took him to his father on Skhodnya. Scales are less often needed there. And then I bought a total of three Zelmers. One for my apartment and two for relatives as a gift. Everyone works like bees.

From Zelmers I liked the ones with a glass table. Index 052 (?) From memory. Orange color. Their batteries are not a tablet, but ordinary AA. Otherwise, my mother-in-law would have given it, but where am I the batteries for them ...

IMHO. The technique from Zelmer is like buying "like Poland" but the quality is worse than frank China for the same money. China for the same money that costs Zelmer will be much better quality. And this applies not only to household appliances. Recently I took a highchair for a child ... so these types of "Poles" BabyDesign managed to mix up the standard parts during assembly.
Zelmer mixers are pornography, meat grinders are unreliable and inconvenient ...

Look towards kenwood.
I have been using Kenwood DS800 for 5 years - normal flight. And the accuracy is normal. As for me, the kitchen scales need to be taken at 5 kg, with an accuracy of 1 g. they will cover almost any kitchen needs.

IMHO. The technique from Zelmer is like buying "like Poland" but the quality is worse than frank China for the same money. "

about Zelmer, I personally do not agree - also purely IMHO. And I haven’t heard any complaints about pornographic mixers. And Zelmer's scales are really good quality.

By the way, but Kenwood, for that matter, the Chinese collect. And HP Kenwood has complaints from users. So that is also "made in china". Or I'm wrong?

But to each his own - who likes what and suits.

Read the topic of mixers, about Zelmer mixers.

Do you have any complaints about Panasonic bread makers? They are also all collected in China.

They just used Zelmer, I don't want to anymore, the technique is not worth the money.
As if there is something to compare, and now, for me personally, Zelmer, this is a dirty word in relation to technology.
Purely Chinese technology, although it is worth its money, does not pretend to be a segment - average, respectively, the price / quality.
And with Zelmer it turns out that it is easier to add 10-20-30% to the Zelmer price, but already buy equipment of normal quality and thoughtfulness in design and usability.

Dear owners of SOEHNLE 67080 PAGE PROFI scales, please respond, are you still satisfied with these scales?

I still use these weights, they work great. Not so long ago I bought Hario scales on Ebay, compared them - they weigh almost the same.

There are no complaints about Panasonic. I have two of them. 256x. He took identical ones so that he would not get confused at the dacha.
There are no complaints about the Zelmers either. Four weights. Meat grinder Zelmerovskaya 886.5, together with an additionally purchased full set of attachments. Everything has been working flawlessly since 2010. Although, I confess, it is not often used.
Quantumami, according to the seasons. The entire harvest of carrots and half of the pumpkins is immediately through the grater attachment and portioned in bags into the freezer. Father, when he was on his feet, cooked the soup exclusively himself. He was more agile with portions of carrots.
Now my sister and I are with him. And everyone prepares his own for himself and for him ... In the summer, a niece with two grandchildren, well, then, too, intensively.
In general, it cannot be said that there are a lot, but it is not idle either.
And in Zelik on m / r Brown the switch went off, about two years later. I changed it myself, but I had to follow it to the opposite end of Moscow. While he has been living for a year.

Everything is fine, BUT.
Who will be lucky with what and how, as a drawing teacher once told us in our first year, explaining about tolerances and fit.

Somehow from all the Panasonic equipment available - bread maker, juicer / blender, meat grinder, phones, TVs ... everything works.
And, in my opinion, only one of the Panasonic devices is a meat grinder, so-so not a fountain, but it works better than the Zelmerovskaya 886.5.

Just before buying something normal, you use it and think it works the same, normally, it doesn't break, and then when you try the same technique, but already from a normal manufacturer (and practically the same price segment + 10-30%), thinking about quality and ergonomics of your products, then you begin to understand ... these "little things" are the whole point.
The more of these "little things" are thought out in the design, the more pleasant and trouble-free it is to use household appliances.

As for Zelmer's meat grinders and mixers, I can say from experience of using several years ... they are of average quality, and are not worth their money.
Now, if they were 20-30% cheaper, like the same China, then yes, and so ... Zelmer's price / quality ratio ... none.

I still use these weights, they work great. Not so long ago I bought Hario scales on Ebay, compared them - they weigh almost the same.

Margit, thanks for the tip, and measuring up to 15 kg is needed, was it useful?

Yulia, I have SOEHNLE - PAGE 5kg I have enough of them in the kitchen, but for the parents of my son-in-law, we bought 15 kg, but they live in the village

Margit, thanks for the tip, and measuring up to 15 kg is needed, was it useful?

If the scales were only up to 5 kg, it would not be so convenient. Sometimes you have to weigh more weight.

Yulia, I have SOEHNLE - PAGE 5kg I have enough of them in the kitchen, but for the parents of my son-in-law, we bought 15 kg, but they live in the village

It's just that I now have Bosch up to 2 kg, I'm not enough, and 15 ... although a lot is better than a little, probably this is already greed on my part

Margit, thanks again, you dispelled my doubts, it turns out I'm not greedy at all

Dear owners of SOEHNLE 67080 PAGE PROFI scales, please respond, are you still satisfied with these scales?

I'm happy as before (though 1.5 years in total)like a thousand elephants !!!

The scale is used to weigh food or other items up to 7 kg.
An infrared signal is used to transmit its measurements in metric or imperial units.
Readings are easy to read (backlit).
The device is fixed to the wall.
When not using the instrument as a balance, the display shows the time and room temperature.

I took the measuring spoons. with one clear-electronic. But with the second requirement of clarification of these measures. What are they equal to?



Give an explanation for the spoon is not electronic.

tsp - teaspoon
cup = cup
tbsp - tablespoon

I wonder what the equivalent of a cup is. How much in grams or ml is it? In recipes on Western sites, I often met such a measure as a cup and a glass. If it is clear with a glass, then what the cup is equal to, if there is no such measuring spoon, it is not clear.

My Canadian friend sends me recipes in cups, well, it’s accepted there (as in our glasses). So - a cup = 240 ml.

I have measuring spoons in a cup, it says 1 cup = 240 ml

Thanks to everyone who responded, now I am also with SOEHNLE 67080 PAGE PROF. They weigh like exactly, 3 dozen - 17 grams, but sometimes when weighing the values ​​jump, do they need a perfectly flat surface? And then I have small stripes on the tabletop, like a drawing of a tree, can this be the cause of jumps in values?

[AUV]

AUV, Julia! Congratulations on your new kitchen helper!
All scales require a flat surface. A marble or glass board is ideal, at first I adapted a large tile, then I came across a glass board for cutting in the store, and now I put the scales on it.

[Margit]

Margit, thanks for the advice, I never thought to put them on a glass board

In general, I made sure that there should be several scales in the kitchen for different purposes.
1. Some electr. scales-steelyard with a hook for weighing large weight (up to 50 kg) with an error of 10-50 g.
2. Conventional electr. up to 5 kg (+/- 1 g)
3. Scales-spoon or small-sized on a platform with +/- 0.1 g. Rarely used, but sometimes not enough.

"As before, I'm happy (though 1.5 years in total), like a thousand elephants !!!"
I fully subscribe. This is me about the 15 kg SOEHNLE - PAGE scales.

And no one, except me, does not jump on the scales? When you put something on the scale or zero the values, the numbers start to jump quickly, and then stop at some value. I have a SOEHNLE 67080 PAGE PROF second kitchen scale, I also have a Bosch and both readings jump. That's why I bought the second ones, I thought that Bosch had broken. And now I don't know what to think. My husband laughs that my energy confuses the scales, because they don’t want to weigh me on the electronic floor scales either.

[AUV]

Dear owners of SOEHNLE 67080 PAGE PROFI scales, please respond, are you still satisfied with these scales?
AUV, I do not know if this question is relevant or not, but I will answer. I have been using these scales for 1.5 years and I am sooo happy with them.They meet all my needs: accuracy, measurement up to 15 kg (it helps a lot during the preparation period), large weighing area, do not turn off immediately. When weighing products, I can move away or be distracted, they will wait for me as long as necessary (this is very convenient). If you haven't bought it yet, take it without a doubt, it is a reliable assistant!

And no one but me, the values ​​on the scales do not jump?

I do not have ...

And no one but me, the values ​​on the scales do not jump? When you put something on the scale or zero the values, the numbers start to jump quickly, and then stop at some value.

I have one wall scale when transferring the platform from vertical to horizontal position, when incl. weighing functions, a second or two the "stick" runs in a circle.
At other scales, I noticed that the values ​​go astray and begin to show inconsistency if there is any source of radiation nearby. For example, a working cell or a washing drum is rotating. cars ...

My scales are near the TV and there are no problems (I have SOEHNLE - PAGE for 15 kg.). When I just chose the scales (1.5 years ago) there was such a problem, the seller said that the battery was weak. Try changing the batteries. And be sure to have a flat surface.

I have a ride on Tefale. On Zelmers (both) - no.

My scales are near the TV and there are no problems (I have SOEHNLE - PAGE for 15 kg.)

On TV and I do not jump readings. Radiation occurs when at a certain frequency, it distorts the readings.
It's like on TV you sometimes hear military talks on certain frequencies. And you will be next to talk on your cell - and nothing. We must try to remove the scales when weighing from email. devices. Fonit even an ordinary email. the wire

Before these scales (SOEHNLE - PAGE) I had others. They showed the temperature in the room, weight, time, weight in other measures (I bought it in Auchan), That was something. You need to hang it up, but while you switch it, it will turn off (I pressed the buttons quickly) and everything just jumps. Then I decided for myself, if we need scales, let them show the weight. For time, hours. For temperature, a thermometer.
It's strange. I have a blender and a dishwasher next to the TV. And everything works.

And I agree - the more functions are assigned to one device, the more useless and inconvenient it is. This is not just about the scales.
I have different scales. Some with combined functions. I took them not because of these functions, but because they are wall-mounted with a folding platform - it is convenient that they do not take up space and are always at hand. They weigh, however, well - only if they weigh more than 1 kg, they "lie" by 2 grams. But the thermometer "breaks" degrees by 1.5-2. The clock runs forward 1.5 minutes per month. So if you take because of extra. functions, then this is an empty matter.
And the scales, as I say, are not constantly affected by radiation, but SOMETIMES it happens in a certain place and not on any devices.

I've tried putting the scales on different surfaces. Of the constantly connected appliances in the kitchen, there is only a refrigerator and a kettle ... And the scales jump every time, and already the second scale. SOEHNLE jump at the beginning of weighing or after zeroing, and then the values ​​are normalized, and the Boshiks started to go crazy already in the middle of the process. It already makes me nervous, either I'm catastrophically unlucky with the scales, or something is wrong with me

[AUV]

AUV,
Try changing the battery, or removing and reinstalling the battery. Maybe the battery is really the case. If it does not help, then try replacing the scale at the store. It looks like there is a factory defect. Perhaps they will meet you, take weights with you first, choose, be picky about your choice.

Try changing the battery, or removing and reinstalling the battery.

Okay, I'll try to change the batteries, thanks.

Usually, if the batteries run out, the inscription "LO" is displayed. I think your brands of scales provide this function.
This may also be due to poor soldering on the board itself. I had this on a pin thermometer. Soldered and began to show normally. Then he prompted a person on the forum - the same helped. Surely this can be in the scales. But what would be on two at once, and not Chinese brands ...
