Digital Scale recommendations?

Hey guys,

Figured I should get a little scale to use at home to help me track how much I eat and to keep the amounts relatively consistent.

Any suggestions? I know there's a million on ebay but hoping to hear from someone who has bought one....and it still works 2 weeks later.

thanks!
 
The ebay ones aren't too bad, I have bought many in my life from ebay. All are still working today although I treat them well.

I am sure you will be fine, just choose one that fits your criteria.
 
Just buy a cheapie off ebay or from Bigw/kmart.

There's barely any good scales in personal weighing. I'd look at the Seca 813. Look at Seca -> AND UC 321 -> Tanita scales.
 
AND and Tanita are very good and reliable...
i have UH-3202, 3kg/1g, 100g/0.1g about $30 and not too large (probably not available in aus)
tanita KD-407 looks good too

or get an ebay cheapy for a bit less..
 
Looking to get one too, just wondering what price range 'cheap' comes under for a decent scale as I've never bought one before.
 
I Think mine were $25 form ebay, with free postage, thers a lot on there but delivery took ages, about 3 weeks i reckon. I have barely used mine though, so can't say anything about longevity...

Not really much "quality" in personal weighing/bathroom scales. $150-$250 would be enough for a decent one.

$700+ for a cheapie platform scale would be the next step up from there.

I think he is chasing kitchen scales, not bathroom ones
 
Thanks guys, ended up just getting one for $5 on ebay, hopefully good enough to just measure out protein powders ,rice,sweetpotato etc.
