ARGH! Can’t decide between kitchen scales!
With this long baking spree from which I’ve been suffering, I’ve realized more and more (with ever increasing frustration) that I need a scale. We have an old spring scale that I don’t trust.
And I’ve been struggling to figure out what to get.
I’ve finally settled on MyWeigh scales but which.
They even have an article, comparing three of their scales but it’s not really helping me narrow down the decision between the kd7000 and the i5000.
I’m thinking of buying these specific ones from Old Will Knott Scales:
- MyWeight 400-Z with calibration weight
- My Weigh KD-7000 with AC Adapter
- MyWeigh i5000 with AC Adapter
Decisions Decisions
Maybe sick Chennette will come online and read my links and contribute to my dilemma.
Edit: (12-Sep-2008): I realized I never did update. I bought the i5000 as mentioned in my comment…received it and am quite happy with it.

I have an i5000 and it’s been great. I think you’d be happy with either the i5000 or the KD-7000. I’m not sure why you need the 400-Z. It’s great for accurately measuring really small amounts, but I find that measuring spoons are sufficient for what the 400-Z can do.

well i don’t know what i need
i guess, it’s a throwback to my using that annoying old spring scale which can’t do 1 oz of this and 1 oz of that or even 4 oz of something, you know
maybe i don’t need it
thanks :-D

Hmmmm…..scales, scales , scales … we have been managing….correction, I have but then we do need a new one and I agree one to accurately measure large amounts would suffice…..measuring spoons are accurate for me…..
