Digital camera Review: Does not Come with the Power adapter
Summary: 4 Stars
Overall product is very good, however the version I bought did not come with the power adaptor. You have to buy it seperatly. It does state optional but I thought it reffered to when the scale was being used not when I was ordering in it.Digital camera Review: Does not work at all
Summary: 1 Stars
It doesn't work. It doesn't even hit zero when turned on. The display keeps showing random numbers. This is brand new, out of the box and it doesn't work at all.
First the adapter came weeks after as the vendor said that he had run out and would I like to go and get one from somewhere else! It did come eventually.
After trying to figure out what could be the matter with the scale, I understand that to recalibrate it requires having specific, heavy weights to get it to zero itself. Who has this kind of equipment? It is still randomly flashing numbers, has never managed to stay still at zero and, when something of known weight is placed on it (1 lb) it keeps flashing between .78 and .65 and (it seems) every number in between.
What a waste of time and money. Ordered a USPS scale as a replacement.
Digital camera Review: Don't
Summary: 1 Stars
I ordered this scale which came from Quick Supply. It didn't work at all. Not a beep, or a light, not even an error message. I sent it back and wanted my money back, including the shipping charges both ways and got back "We do not refund return shipping charges". My advice is, keep looking.
Digital camera Review: Don't Bother With This Thing.
Summary: 1 Stars
I purchased this scale new and got it in the mail yesterday. Opened the box and installed the scale per the instructions and even let the machine warm up before using it. Then I proceeded to weigh things. I must have gotten a dud, because it is inaccurate. I was grabbing things from the kitchen and even put some 5,10,20 lb dumb bells on it. All weights were wrong. I even tried the tare thing where it subtracts the weight of the container and just measures the liquid. Wrong again. Then I proceeded to zero the thing out with a 5 kg weight used to test accuracy of scales for businesses and the post office. So, I grabbed some more stuff that I knew the exact weight of and the scale disappointed me again.
This piece of crap is going back in the box for a refund. Luckily, Amazon is great about paying for return shipping if you have a defective item. I'm going to try my luck with a Digiweigh scale because they have good reviews and they include the AC adapter and batteries with their product.
