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.

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.

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.

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.

Precise, light to transport/carry, doesn’t take up much space and pretty accurate when measuring all different weights grams, ounce, and pounds.

Quality Product.

I just opened this scale (as I always keep a few extras on hand because I know they will wear out) and this is the SECOND one that will not register an item. Complete junk. The old ones (we have one we have used for 5 years) we’re good quality- these new ones aren’t worth the cardboard they’re shipped in.

Did not meet my expectations too slow for my needs

I use it for Pizza dough. Does what it's supposed to do and is what is used at the culinary workshop I just returned from.

good quality and price point. functions perfectly for our needs. bulk pricing is great. ships quickly arrived in good condition.

good scale, portable, batteries helpful

Great scale and the Compact Digital Portion Control Scale size is good to, light weight and can be moved around with ease Can't go wrong with this name brand.

This scale was ok, as long as you don't use it to weigh out anything that may cause static. It's VERY static sensitive. I have to weigh out powdered sugar to make my cake frosting. As I'm scooping the powdered sugar into the container on top, the scale will shut off over and over. I'll have to put a piece of cardboard on the top of the scale, covering the display, and hope for the best while bending down to see the display, if I can. Also, if any bags we use that may have the slightest static on them, it shuts off. Very frustrating.

I use this every day and love it. It is small and easy to move around, but big enough to put a bowl on. It is easy to clean which is a plus

Bought for a restaurant that's since closed, and am still using at home to this day. Nice to be able to plug it in in a convenient spot and not worry about batteries, like some scales. Easy to clean, and hasn't started to give me any wonky readings yet. I really see no distinction between this and the much more expensive digital scales I used to use at a small, higher end bakery, except I guess that this is easier to move, and I've used it for 15+ pounds quite often without noticing any additional strain on the scale from getting close to its maximum weight.
