When it says mechanical portion control it means it isn't automatic or electronic. I prefer it that way. You don't get scaling errors or have the need to reset to zero. We portion and bag our veggie sides with this and it's perfect. Hasn't failed us yet.

Love how you can change the dial on this scale and that you do not have to worry about calibrating it if the measurement is thrown off.

Nice and sturdy. Very happy. Thought it was going to be something cheaper quality. Can definitely handle five pounds and not get wobbly and throw the calibration.

This is a durable and easy to read 5 pound scale. It has a knob to zero it out if you have a bowl on it.

This scale worked for about two months. Then one day it wouldn't weigh correctly and sticks when you try to use it. It's not even three months old yet.
Thank you for your review! We're sorry to hear your scale isn't working properly. A Customer Solutions Representative will remain in contact until the issue has been resolved.
