Customer Reviews of Polder Pocket Size Digital Scale
Customer Rating:  Summary: Great portable scale. Comment: This is a great scale for keeping in your purse when you need to measure when away from home. Customer Rating: Summary: Accurate enough, easy to use. Comment: This scale is great. I sometimes buy expensive ingredients in bulk and divvy them up to share with friends who are also foodies. Particularly if I have to travel for certain hard-to-come-by organic ingredients, I'll offer to get some for other people. Then comes the problem of dividing up a big sack of herbs or spices in proportion to what each person chipped in. The polder is really perfect for this kind of thing. The scale allows you zero it for any amount under a pound so you can quickly take into account the weight of packaging, even if you are stuck using different types of containers. I checked it against some standard weights also, and it never varied significantly, though it sometimes won't recognize small weight changes as with powders. You can solve that by picking up the sack and setting it down again to obtain an accurate total. Another handy feature is that you can switch between grams and ounces as measures just by pushing a button. The scale is also small and pretty durable, making it highly portable. For this price, a better scale is hard to find, even in specialty shops (many of which charge a premium for decent scales). I highly recommend it for keeping things fair and saving money. Customer Rating:  Summary: It's decent Comment: It's precise to within .1 grams, but it's certainly not that accurate. If you turn the scale off and back on, you're probably going to get a reading that's as much as half a gram different from the last. Why don't they make these things work off solar power? I hate dealing with batteries, and the little ones are the worst. Not a bad scale, but not a good scale either. Customer Rating: Summary: Love This Product Comment: I purchased the Polder Pocket Sized Digital Scale, because I was on a diet and needed to measure out my food. I was going on vacation and needed to have a scale. This scale is so convenient and it is small enough to pack in your purse or backpack. It is very accurate and easy to use. I would recommend this to anyone. Customer Rating: Summary: love it!!!!!!! love it!!!!!!!!!! Comment: The best little scale for me I bought this as a take with me scale so I can weigh my portions. It fits in my purse and is very conveient for me to use I just take a cheap sandwhich bag and lay it over the tray so that I can easily clean it after using. I recommend this scale to anyone who like me has had gastric bypass or if you just need to make sure of the amount of food you are eating.

Choosing Appliance -> Energy-Efficient Refrigerators The EnergyGuide label on new refrigerators will tell you how much electricity in kilowatt-hours (kWh) a particular model uses in one year. The smaller the number, the less energy the refrigerator uses and the less it will cost you to operate. In addition to the EnergyGuide label, don't forget to look for the Energy Star label. A new refrigerator with an Energy Star label will save you between $35 and $70 a year compared to the models designed 15 years ago. This adds up to between $525 and $1,050 during the average 15-year life of the unit. Choosing Appliance -> Dishwasher Choose a dishwasher with sturdy compression springs in the door. Also look for tough, lightweight nylon or graphite racks with cushioned tips that protect glassware and cookware. Weimer recommends choosing a model with a rack design that provides the largest, most flexible interior space and is configured for your belongings, including odd-shaped pieces.

Useful info -> Grill Grilling is a pervasive tradition in the United States. There are many cook-offs for steak grilling and good 'ole fashion barbecue (mid-western and southern style) around the United States with serious cash prizes involved in most. Almost all competition grillers use charcoal, most often in large, custom designed brick or steel grills. They can range from a few 55 gallon oil drums sawed lengthwise on their sides to make a lid and grill base, to large, vehicle sized grills made of brick, weighing nearly a ton. |
