food scale makes it easy to measure ingredients directly on the stainless-steel platform, in a large bowl, or on a plate. The scale's unique pull-out display prevents shadowing from oversized containers. Large numbers measure in 1/8-ounce (imperial) and 1-gram (metric) increments for accuracy. The optional backlight makes the scale's display easier to read, and a weight indicator shows the capacity left on the scale before reaching maximum capacity (11 pounds). Press the zero button to offset the weight of a container or to set the weight back to zero. The platform can be removed for cleaning, but hand-washing is recommended for all parts. Four AAA batteries are included. This scale measures 11-1/4 inches by 8-1/2 inches by 2 inches.

The 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-ounce and 1-gram increments. The stainless steel platform can be removed for cleaning but no parts are dishwasher safe. The Scale has an 11-pound capacity and 4AAA batteries are included.
