Customer Reviews of Oxo Good Grips Food Scale with Pull-Out Display
Customer Rating: Rating: 5/5Rating: 5/5Rating: 5/5Rating: 5/5Rating: 5/5
Summary: Smart thinking by OXO!
Comment: Works as advertised. Measurements are precise.
Smart ideas:
1. Back light can be turned on if you need it. That way you do not run down the battery if the light is not needed. Good feature if there is a glare or you need to see the display from a distance.

2. Obviously, the pull out display. I wasn't sure if this was a needed feature, but once I put a dinner plate on the scale it was well worth it. Display pulls out from scale easy and fits back on scale nice and snug.

3. Zeroing option or tare feature.

4. You can switch between weights with the touch of a button. No turning on and off to reset.

5. Scale will go into a sleep mode after 3 minutes, but retains all measurements. Simply push a button to wake it up and keep working. Auto shut off after 45 minutes.

6. Easy to clean. Scale plate comes off.

7. Can store almost anywhere with the slim build.

The only thing people might find a problem with is cost. It does cost a little more than some other scales, but I would recommend it for the features I listed above that the other scales do not have or do not perform as well. You can always justify not needing a certain feature or paying a little more. But it sure is nice having a scale that works great and does everything you need.

Summary: Functional and Easy!
Comment: Product works like a charm. Very small and compact. Black and stainless exterior is contemporary and easy to clean. Zero weight button is great, no weighing containers seperate. Scale also has oz. and gram converter. I would recommend this product!

Summary: Great scale
Comment: This scale is compact but still goes up to 11 pounds. The pull-out display is genius, since often you would be using a large bowl to weigh 11 pounds worth of ingredients. Also, the platform comes off so you can clean it without worrying about getting the electronic parts wet. Love it.

Summary: Fantastic!
Comment: I love the large flat, easy to clean surface. Work great for large bowls thanks to the pull out display. The zero functions helps in measuring multiple items in the same container.

Summary: Oxo Good Grips Food Scale
Comment: This scale is great. We purchased it for the kitchen of course. Many recipes call for items (flour) to be measured in weight. This scale has a pull out display attached to the base with a small retractable insulated black cord. The display is bright, with easy to read numbers. We shopped around a lot, and came to the opinion that you get what you pay for. I would highly recommend this item.


More Reviews OXO's user-friendly food scale with pull-out display is perfect for weighing all ingredients. Weigh items directly on the platform, on a plate or in a bowl, and pull the display away from the base to prevent shadowing from large plates and bowls. Accurately measure ingredients when cooking and baking and stick to a diet by weighing portions. An optional backlight makes the display easier to read and a weight indicator shows the capacity left on the Scale before maximum capacity is reached. Press the zero button to offset the weight of a container or to set the weight back to zero so you can add additional ingredients. The display features large, easy-to-read numbers which measure in 1/8-oz (imperial) and 1-g (metric) increments. The stainless steel platform can be removed for cleaning but no parts are dishwasher safe. The scale has an 11-lb capacity and 4 AAA batteries are included. Measures in 1/8-oz (imperial) and 1-g (metric) increments for greater accuracy Easy-to-read, large display numbers Stainless steel platform can be removed for cleaning Thin profile allows for easy storage

Choosing Appliance -> Knives
The importance of high quality knives can't be stressed enough! Buy the best you can and expect to spend some serious money. It is better to buy a couple of excellent knives and slowly add to your collection rather than buying an entire set of low quality knives. Start with a chef knife and paring knife. You will also want to buy a sharpening steel.
Choosing Appliance -> Ovens
Most avid bakers prefer separate, even-heat double electric ovens. If that describes you - and you have the space - be sure one of the ovens is equipped with a broiler that provides at least 3,000 watts of cooking power. Also look for racks that pull all the way out and lock in place for safe, easy access to the oven. On the inside, a dark interior shows less baked-on grime, while a porcelain interior is easier to clean

Tips How to Maintain Appliance -> Heat
Rather than cause accidental heat-damage, prevent such damage in the first place:
  • Always use a heat protection pad or trivet (with rubber feet) for hot cookware, or leave cookware to cool on the hob first. Never put hot pans, particularly cast iron. Such heat can damage any surface!
  • If you must put a hot pan on the base of a sink use a protective sink mat, sponge, or cloth beneath. It is best to leave the utensil to cool slightly first, or put a few inches of cool water in the sink before the pan.
  • Avoid pouring boiling liquids directly into sinks without turning on the cold tap as well.
