One postage stamp, or two? Weigh your letter. 4-ounce serving of meat? Weigh it out. And when you’re baking, you just can’t beat the ease and accuracy of a scale, compared to volume measurements. Features include the following:

• Add-and-weigh (tare) lets you add ingredients in sequence.
• Automatic shutoff (a nice, long 4 minutes).
• Weighs up to 11 pounds (5kg) in decimal increments (.1, .2) rather than fractions (1/8, 1/4).
• Weighs in .1-ounce/1g increments.
• 5-year limited warranty.
