This is like a typical measuring cup only better!
This is like a typical measuring cup only better! I like that this is combination of measuring cup and scale. It is two great products combined into one. It has the look and feel of a plastic measuring cup similar to one I have in my kitchen but I am liking this one much better. When this product first arrived it took out my measuring cups and tested it out, the measurements matched what I put in my measuring cups which made me happy. As you will see in my pictures the white part of the cup will separates from the red so if your not looking to use the scale, you don't need to worry about getting that part dirty or you can put that piece in the dishwasher. I put it on the top shelf of my dishwasher and had no issues. The digital screen is easy to read and the buttons are easy to press. I like that this product comes with a lithium battery so I wont have to worry about replacing it often. This is a pretty good sized product so I can't imagine anything that it wouldn't be able accommodate in my kitchen. Most of my recipes only uses measurements that come in cups and ounces but having the ability to convert to milliliters or grams when needed is a nice bonus. After recently having babies, I joined a diet program which requires me to measure out all my food, now that I have this scale the process has been much easier.
I received this product at a discount in exchange for my honest and unbiased review.

It takes a bit of practice, but this scale is perfect for the cook who wants to work from both volume and mass ...
I've never used this type of scale before. In fact, I've never even seen one quite like this. Innovative is probably the word for it. It does take some getting used to and I had to play with it quite a bit to be able to switch from one mode to another. It's quite easy to both visually see how much liquid is in the measuring cup and with a light tap, how much it weighs.
For the cook who needs real precision, you can get both the volume and the weight at the same time. Probably the best way to get the same results each and every time in a favorite recipe is to measure by weight. This measuring cup holds six cups, but it's easy to add or subtract things like flour because the cup is six inches in diameter. I found it easy to add and remove flour because of this feature.
One thing I tried weighing was coffee beans. I do have a French press and and to make eight cups I need 56 grams of coarsely ground coffee beans. It's very simple to get that precision I needed when using the Camry measuring cup scale. It was quite easy to wipe down the cup when I was finished and return the cup to the box.

Very nice and sleek
Very nice and sleek.
Its very easy to use and the design is very good. Its got depression on the surface where you can place your feet.
You just step on it and it lights up with your weight measurement. Its got auto on technology so you don't need to tap on it to start it. It grips well and is not slippery unlike glass scales. You can change the display to kg or lbs as per your preference.
You do not need to switch on the light or squint your eyes to read your weight, it lights up nice and big. Auto Calibrated; Auto Power-Off; Runs on 2 AAA batteries
Totally recommended and great product.
