Customer Reviews

I bought this unit to weigh gold and silver coins and bullion. It's a very sturdy yet compact unit. It fits in a pocket or purse or any bag. It seems to be very well made and the scales are accurate.
When I first got the unit and turned it on, it didn't work. I discovered the batteries were loose. Actually, the batteries should be outside the unit when shipped.
In any case, while I've not owned them long, I'm very pleased with them. The price is exceptional and EZ Sales are just super to deal with.
I was a bit annoyed that the unit did not come with a calibration weight. Be sure and get the 500 gram weight for this model. You won't need it the first time you use the unit, but at some point, you will.
Highly recommended.
Update: After using the scales for checking coin weight for awhile now, I've noticed that it's not totally accurate. Even after calibration. A silver dollar should weigh 31.1 grams. I have them weigh from 31.1 to 31.5. But the troy ounce is always 1oz, as it should be.
There is a margin of error. So if you need extreme accuracy, you'll have to spend a lot more money. But if you want to be just quite close, this will do fine.

The price was excellent. The scale works well, and I haven't noticed any of the inconsistencies noted by other reviewers.
The clamshell cover and stainless steel scale plate are excellent features, as is the 'indiglo-style' backlight to the display, which was an unexpected, though very welcome, surprise, and the batteries were included (also a nice surprise these days).
I, too, noticed that the batteries were crooked and the unit didn't work immediately when I opened the package, though this appears to be deliberate to keep the batteries from draining while in transit. Once they are unwrapped (mine were shrink-wrapped, and installed in the scale fully wrapped), the scale works fine.
All in all, it is very nice, quick and easy to use, and took precisely two days to get to me with standard shipping -- astoundingly fast service.
I'm very satisfied with this purchase.
