AvaWeigh PC20 20 lb. Compact Digital Portion Control Scale

you get what you pay for . . . i have never had an avaweigh scale last for more than 6 months. The last one I bought in September stopped working in January! Can anybody recommend a compact digital scale that actually is durable and can handle a commercial kitchen???

It has 1.7 second react delay when showing the weight. Don't get or think to buy it, bad product ever have

I have one of these and love it and wanted to purchase again. The top is slightly different and it takes sooo long to update the display when you add ingredients. It is unusable for my needs as I can't be standing waiting. I am not sure exact time but it is long enough where I thought it was broken at first and not reading anything. I am going to try to get a refund so I can get a different scale.

I'm a Grande Pastry Chef with not a lot of time to spare. The scale lags, it takes like 3-5 seconds to give you a precise weight. I ordered 2, and one of them came in with a defect. The gram measurement was off by a 1 tenth. This is difficult for employees to assess situation no matter how many times you explain.(Sigh) This scale is not recommend. It is not worth the time, money, and hassle.

This works well but I wish that you could set it to turn on to the weight measurement that we use. Every time we turn it on, we have to push the button over and over until we get to the grams.

This scale is so much better than my old tiny one. It makes me want to actually use it, which is great since I never actually ever use my old school because it was too much of a pain. This one rules

Really fantastic digital scale. This is the same model we use in our kitchen in pastry school, so I’ve purchased it for my home as well. Great sensitivity (measures to half a gram) and durability while also being easy to use and clean.

I was looking for a scale to up my bread game. I make sourdough and challah usually and the scale I had was not the best. It had the habit of cutting off at inopportune times and losing my tare settings, furthermore it would revert back to ounces every time! third the unit switching button was on the bottom. I knew when I saw this scale it had just what I needed. First it is accurate to .5 grams. Next it has a power cord and doesn't turn off by itself. All the buttons are on top at the front and it will weigh up to ten pounds. It has a well sized weighing platform and it's easy to read. Everything my old scale wasn't. If you make bread do yourself a favor and get this one. Don't keep suffering with the cheap ones.

These were our go-to scales for years. However, something has changed and they are no longer the same. The new one's measured weight jumps around and the same product weighs different amounts. I recommend choosing a different scale until they go back to their old software or parts or whatever they changed.

Great scale. Has lasted longer than more expesnive ones.

Not sure what has happened to this product. We have been using this brand of scale for years. There is now a delay in the read out. Sounds like not a big deal, but when you are pouring things to be weighed, you need it to be instant and accurate. Got one, thought it was broken, so requested a replacement. Got the new one, same thing, Useless for our application.

Love this little scale!! We bought the larger 110 pound one at first, but it was not made for portioning. This one was perfect for smaller portioning. It is sort of hard to clean under the top. Works very well though.

I use this scale on a regular basis in both cooking and in packaging our product for grab and go. I've been very happy with the ease of use and reliability.

Ordered this in January and it stopped working in April. Very frustrating!

It breaks down in 3 months, too slow for reading. So disappointed!!

They break easily, especially the plugs. I've purchased many of these because of their ease of use and price. I also had one that won't register any weight added to it. I ordered several at once to have as back ups. So unfortunately when I really needed one, it didn't work.

When you add weight to the scale slowly it doesn't register it. I slowly added 10g of weight over the course of several seconds and the scale remained at 0. After quickly removing all the weights, the scale now registered negative.

Does a nice job for us

Decent scale. Reads a little slow, and is not that reliable for very small amounts, like under 1/2 lb. Works great at other ranges. We just learned where to use it in our kitchen and dedicated another for the small things.

have bought many of these avaweigh scales all junk. Only last a few months. screen has come loose and the letters are shot.
