I was very pleased with how this worked, until it stopped working after 2 years. The LCD is easy to read, the CR2032 batteries are readily available, though your unit, if it's like mine, won't outlive the Maxell batteries the factory installs. You can toggle between metric and USA, and the tare button allows you to hang a basket, but not have to subtract its weight from what you read on the LCD. If it's worth $6/year to have a nice scale, go for it, otherwise, get an old fashioned spring scale that will last decades without batteries.

the front plastic screen fell off, right out of the box. I glued it back in with ca glue, but then it became frosty. the housing is made out of die cast aluminum, the handle is attached to that with threaded bolts. overall sturdy construction less the screen protector.

If you are a fishermen it should help you weigh the big one, but for around the house travel bags, propane tanks for the grill, should be between 38 and 40 pounds when filled, and if you can design sling you can weigh your grand kids.

I bought it for a gift. I checked with them after using it and they are very happy with the product. Really liked the hand hold handle where you don't have to hang it up and can measure at once.

I bought this for testing draw weight on bows and this scale showed exact weight as the scale at the bow shop. Very happy with this purchase.
