 Great productMay 01, 2010
EDIT 6/9/10: My scale previously stopped working. Even after replacing the batteries, it would not turn on. Miraculously, it came back on. Sometimes, it would still act up but I use this scale daily and did not want to wait for a replacement if it would still work. However, this week it has stopped working again. I wanted to give it a few days in hopes that it would turn on like the first time, but no such luck. I would have knocked this down to 3 stars, but customer service was helpful (spoke with them during the first incident, awaiting second incident response) so I gave it 4/5 starts.
I absolutely love this scale. It is great for anyone who is on a diet or trying to watch portion sizes. I like that some items are pre-programmed in the scale. This is especially helpful for fresh fruits and vegetables. Although, I will admit looking through the book is a little tedious, but I just went through and highlighted all the items I eat regularly. I have used this scale every day since I got it and have not had any problems so far. I have not even had to replace the batteries yet! I definitely recommend this scale.
 I really like this diet scale!Mar 11, 2010
This is the perfect diet scale for me. It is the right size and easy to use. I enjoy being able to zero the scale and add something else. It is easy to clean.

OMG, I have used other scales before, but this is the best one I have ever used. It has helped me so much in my weight lost. I would buy all over again if I had to. This is definately a keeper and will recommend to my friends and family.

 You are stuck with limited codesMar 26, 2009
If you eat stuff not listed in the code book, you are out of luck. There is no way to create a custom code and there is no listing that I could find anywhere on the Internet where you could get additional codes. Some very common items, like Ranch Dressing, is not listed in the code book.

Excellent tool for any kitchenJan 26, 2009
The scale does everything it says it can do. Started using right out of the box. The memory of the food types is excellent for those that are watching their intake and the ability to add your own allows us to better use the system.
