Press the Zero button to offset the weight of a container or to set the weight back to zero before adding additional ingredients.

Q: asdf/lakdDoes this unit have an auto shutoff? I read several reviews saying it does not.
submitted by Steve G - 2 months ago
A: What does asdf/lakd mean?
submitted byBIGRICK96 - 6 days agoA: The scale turns off after a 15 min period of inactivity. For the longevity of the battery we suggest turning it off before the auto-off.

Q: Hi! I will be receiving the scale in the next few days. I'm wondering, for storage purposes, can it be stored on its side? Guessing if it is stored flat, it shouldn't have items on top of it in storage? Please provide optimal storage arrangements. Thanks!
submitted by mnchef - 5 years ago
A: Hello, This is Eric from OXO. Thank you for this review on Target.com. OXO recommended method of storing is for the scale to be laid flat with nothing on top. Best, OXO

I was initially a bit hesitant to buy this because other reviewers said it went through batteries like crazy. But they were relying on the Auto-Turn-Off feature, if you just hold down the power button when you're done with it, it turns off right away. I've had this for a year and it's been wonderful! (And I haven't had to change out the batteries even once haha). Easy to use and easy to clean. I recommend keeping the box/packaging so it stays safe and clean when out of use/stored in the cabinet.
Small & useful

Easy to use & accurate. Like how it lets you repeatedly set back to zero, so you can weigh each new ingredient.

Top in function and reliability, this food scale is easy to use and consistent. While lacking some pizazz, it's must-have kitchen tool.

i've had this for several years, using it sporadically at first but multiple times a day, lately. it's quick, accurate, and pleasant to use. a lot of the low reviews are whining about the lack of auto-off feature. i don't know what's so difficult about holding the power/zero button down for a few seconds, it's really not that difficult. again, i've had this for years and i'm still on my first set of batteries. some folks are just really nitpicky and/or lazy. ignore them. this is a great device. i have several products from OXO and this one is as good as the rest. highly recommended.

Great scale for my husband. Love the light-up display and pull-out digital unit. Perfect baking. Better than our old Tanita scale. Worth the price.

Very well made and accurate! I love the pull-out screen so you can see past large bowls. So far it’s been great!
Uses too many batteries, nice design though

Nice - 2 years ago
I do not like how many batteries it’s used and you can’t manually turn off the scale to save battery. I have the silver version. I’ve had it for about 3 months using it 1-2 times a week and have had to replace the batteries. Pros: design is nice, the screen is LED but that is a con too. Makes it use more battery. I would not buy it again. I’m happier with the crappy $10 scale that I’ve had forever and never had to replace the battery.
Doesn't break down grams into decimals for smaller weight options

If you are weighing smaller items and need the exact amount of a gram, not the nearest whole number this isn’t the scale for you.

This thing works great! I use it for shipping small items. Prior to purchasing I read reviews that it doesn’t have an automatic “off” function and that people were going through batteries quickly. All you need to do is hold down the power button for a few seconds and it turns off. I’ve never had a battery issue.
Awesome scale!

This scale is accurate and has both metric and Imperial units. However, the automatic shutoff does not work, and this means that it goes through 4 AAA batteries extremely quickly. I had had this scale less than a year and have gone through dozens of batteries. It needs to be replaced.
Great Scale! Works Perfectly Simple!

I Love This Scale. Started Tracking Macros Recently And I Love Using This Scale. Even Though It's Small (Which Makes It Easy To Take To Work With Me Too) The Pull Out Digital Face Is Really Nice. Not Ever Using A Scale Before, I Was Worried This Would Be Too Small But I Haven't Reached It's Threshold Yet By A Long Shot And It's Super Easy To Tare The Weight And Just Keep Adding Food To The Bowl (Like Making A Salad With Meats And Other Toppings).

Hate this!! It never shuts off even though I recall the box saying it will. All the other food scales have an auto off feature. I will most likely return this to the store.
