Got this to weigh cats but of course I’ll be using it to weigh other things, like packages to be mailed. I didn’t check its accuracy but it seemed about right. It came with batteries so I installed them, placed a box on top, pushed tare and plopped in the nearest cat. She was not impressed, but it worked great.This is great 4 shipping boxes. Gives u exact weight. Easy 2 use.I bought the scale for postal use to weigh packages and it works great and accurate. Don't know if I like the two connection type thing that connects to the scale itself display but other than that it works and services purpose I've had it for years now and so far so good.I really like this scale because it has a decent size platform to rest bigger packages on, and the display is easy to read.It’s an okay scale for its price, it gets the job doneRecomiendo este producto es bien practico y fácil de usarI bought this scale because my other finally stopped working. I need an accurate scale for my ebay business where an ounce makes a great deal of difference in postage. The display is bright. The scale accurate. It is easy to set up. Batteries are included. It also comes with a plug. So it is a win win in every regard.I like the Accuteck 85LB Scale. Very accurate at weighing & will help me to determine correct weights when I order products from companies/stores or sellers on eBay who I don't fully trust with their OZ & LB weights on their products that I purchase from them online. I can now do double checking on weights when I receive products such as homemade soaps by the LB, powder extracts by the LB or the OZ & Oils as well. I will get great use & benefits from this scale by doing my own double checking of weights when I receive my products by the LB or the OZ from sellers or companies/stores.I know for a fact that I have been ripped & gypped by some sellers on eBay as well as some companies many times before when I ordered products from them by the OZ or by the LB but could never prove it or be totally sure of it because I did not own a postal scale until now to start checking these weights of products as I receive them to make 100% sure of accuracy & weights. I can now prove to sellers & companies when they have shorted me or to say gypped me of a product by the OZ or by the LB with what I ordered from them.I am 100% sure that this scale will pay for itself within 1 year or less due to its quality accuracy & my real potential to now weigh everything for total accuracy as I receive items that I order online by the OZ or by the LB from eBay sellers & companies/stores to make sure that I got the correct weight amount that I ordered for the product & no less. If I do happen to get gypped anymore from now on, I can simply prove it 100% by putting the product that I purchased by the OZ or the LB by placing it on this Accuteck Scale to get the accurate weight & then take a picture of the product on this scale with its actual real weight displayed in the picture for the product on this scale.I highly recommend buying this scale if you are like me & order products online by the OZ or by the LB & don't always trust that you are really getting 100% what you paid for by the weight from sellers on eBay or online companies/stores.PROS: 1. Very accurate and consistent readings 2. The HOLD function works great when you cannot see the readings blocked by large items 3. Easy to carry around between office and warehouse 4. Portable device - you can put batteries in which will last over 8 months so you can take it anywhere with no power cord CONS: 1. The imperial (lbs) reading is not useful as it reads lbs and oz. For example, an item weighing 0.545 lbs is displayed as "0 lbs 8.7 oz" on the scale, you will have to convert it to just lbs yourself, which creates a big efficiency problem when shipping with a lot of couriers who use imperial units for weight measurement as they only care about how many pounds your package weighs.Overall, I really like the performance and quality of this product. And as an eCommerce business owner who ships over 20 orders per day this scale has not failed me.Sticker from lid (just instructions about how remove carrier foam) not temporary attached. Its deadly glued to surface ! Be ready to spend lot of time to remove it and glue residue after itPerfect! Accurate and nice size, price. I don’t have to wait in line at the post office! And it fits in my Ikea HELMER cabinet.Very handy & easy to use. Thank you.The weigh scale is being used for baking to weigh ingredients and for portion control in packaging. I like that you can use wither battery or plugged in
