Ratings and reviews
0/5ManthanIkea produces good, bad, and average products. And based on the testing and reviews I have seen that they upgrade the products which needs it. Well this one needs to get better 10x. Only reason I got this was because it was from Ikea and I trust Ikea but this product made me question the quality which is served here and made me take my rose tinted glasses off. $15 is really good price for a scale but I think if I add 5-10$ more I will get 5x better products. I am not asking for amazing built and great accuracy like showing 2 decimals or different units of measurements. Basic necessities are you can turn it on or off when you need it!!! This product turns on or off whenever it wants too haha. I will highly recommend customers to invest somewhere else as Ikea hasn't paid attention to this product to make it better.
Turns off too quicklyAndreAnd uses 4 batteries AAA, it doesn’t need all that power in this economy
Looks pretty. Functionally terrible!JamesThis scale was either designed by AI or 10 guys with matching suits in a boardroom. Definitely not designed by somebody who's used a scale for cooking.
1. Auto powers on with slight vibrations, so if you bump the counter or store it on top of your microwave, it will come on all the time without you realizing it.
2. Lacks a dedicated button to power it off and keep it off.
3. Requires you to stab at it to turn it on or put something on it, but then you have to take it back off to tare it before you weigh.
4. Auto-off does not allow enough time for multiple measurements, which causes it to blank out when trying to measure multiple ingredients.
5. Batteries... WOW!!! 4 x AAA batteries last about as long as 1 x 2032 watch battery in my other digital scale.
Looks good, and is accurate. If you add a dedicated power on/off button, remove the auto-on feature, extend the auto-off time to 5 minutes and find a way for it to use WAY less power, you've might have yourself a good scale.
Needs improvementCTurns off to quickly and if left for extended time, batteries will die. On/Off button best at top or away bowl area. I used it once after purchasing, it no longer works a couple of months later. Otherwise, a good item to have in kitchen.
Annoying SilviaThis scale is not usable. It turns off too quickly. It’s absolutely annoying to measure ingredients like this. Also it turns on randomly and thus drains the batteries. a simple old fashioned on/off switch would solve the problem.
Don't waste your moneyYaghmaThis scale is so glitchy, it works properly maybe 3 out of 10 times. The on/off button is unresponsive, the tare function doesn't work, and it automatically switches off and comes back on with a random number on its screen.
Don’t buy itMitchellIt will turn itself on for no reason.
It will turn off while you’re using it.
It will not turn back on when you want it to.
GlitchyTuanSometimes it turns on by itself, displaying 0 number, then off after timeout.
Too sensitiveDayneThe scale is nice looking and clean, and certainly easy to use. Unfortunately, it turns on by itself. So much that it drains batteries within a couple weeks. I left it in the counter with nothing close to it to make sure nothing could be setting it off but, as we walk by we can see the scale turning on without anything around. It doesn't it nonstop every few seconds until the batteries die. I'd take it back but it would cost more for my time and the gas than the scale is worth. I wouldn't recommend.
Don't buy itMarthaI can't use this the batteries keep popping out of place even with the cover in place.
Frustrating Experience - shuts down far too quicklyPriscillaI found it frustrating to use this scale as it shut down far too quickly (I think it was 20 seconds) and the on/off button is under the bowl so you have to lift the bowl off to turn the scale back on. I did appreciate that when the scale turned off, it remembered the weight at shutdown but the frustration of having to continually lift my bowl off and restart the scale outweighed the benefit of it remembering the weight upon shutdown.
Turns offAnonymousI am getting rid of this scale because it feeds my anxiety; it turns off even before I've finished weighing something. And there is no easy way to turn it back on, the on/off switch us UNDER the bowl so I have to either lift the bowl every 30 seconds, annoying if I have flour in one hand or randomly move my hand around over the top of it willy-nilly and wait for it turn back on. It's a serious device of frustration and cannot believe that it came from beloved Ikea. Makes me doubt everything I buy from there now. I've changed the batteries - it doesn't make any difference.
Random scaleClaytonThe scale display fluctuates several grams regularly and sometimes up to 10 grams which is not useful when baking and fairly exact amounts are needed. Will be returning this scale.
Drains batteries really fastZoeI like this model for the most part but I've found that it drains batteries incredibly fast. I've barely used mine since I bought it and I've had to swap the batteries twice.
Perfect for mesuaring food portionsOscarI just love it, it's perfect for measuring my food intake
Battery drainerLahiruThis scale has a serious battery drain problem that only becomes obvious over time. I used it lightly for a few weeks, then left it unused for a couple of months, when I came back, the batteries were completely dead.
I assumed it was a bad set of batteries and replaced them. Same result. After testing two different sets over several months (short periods of use followed by long periods of non-use), it became clear the issue is the scale itself.
The frequent auto on/off behavior seems to drain the batteries rather than save them. Even when not actively used, the scale continues to draw power.
Unfortunately, by the time I could confidently conclude this was a defective design and not battery quality, more than 90 days had passed. When I tried to return it, customer service made a big issue of the return window instead of acknowledging the product flaw..
I wouldn’t recommend this unless you’re prepared to constantly replace batteries and or deal with annoying customer service.
Times out too quicklyJemmaScale looks nice, is easy to keep clean, and has a hook hole on the back for wall hanging. However, the auto shutoff feature makes it very annoying to use as it forgets your measurement. It also doesn't reliably measure small amounts (e.g. adding salt to a bowl of flour).
Simple and works well!AracelyI'm actually using this little scale to help ship items to the U.S for Duties and taxes calculations. Obviously, you can't weigh large packages but it's great for individual plushies, Key chains, baby clothes, and other items. It is so easy to use, and you can change the setting from grams to ounces at the push of a button. The readings are very accurate. I love this thing!
Faulty ProductAdamThis scale kept turning on and off on its own. Drained the batteries in 5 weeks. Do not recommend.
Ok but can be betterReikoBright display. Auto shut off easily and the batteries do not stay in place.
