Etekcity Food Nutrition Kitchen Scale, Digital Grams and Ounces for Weight Loss, Baking, Cooking, Keto and Meal Prep, Large, 304 Stainless Steel

私は視覚障害者で全盲です 現在国内で 視覚障害者 全盲 が使えるキッチンスケールはほぼ1つしかありません そのキッチンスケールがプラスマイナス 2g という誤差があるため ちょっと 誤差が大きすぎるな 塩を測る時とかに2g の誤差はなあと 正直 思ったのでこのスケールを買いました Bluetooth でアプリと接続して そして TalkBack というアプリで画面を読ませると リアルタイムに今何グラムなのかがスマホから音声で読み上げられますので 視覚障害者でも使うことができます 使うアプリも トークバックなどでの読み上げにもしっかり 対応しています 1g 単位でしっかり測ることができ 誤差 も少ないようです いちいち 軽量するたびにスマホを動かさなければならないという 多少のめんどさはありますが 誤差が少なく 軽量できるので私は助かっています Bluetooth との接続もすんなりできました

Decent for measurements, I would say probably accurate within 2-3 grams. Battery life is long. Would say cooking by weight has overall improved my cooking, specifically how consistent my results are when baking.

Los primero dias funcionaba de maravilla, una semana despues ya no pesaba bien y siempre presenta variables considerablers en sus mediciones, no lo recomiendaria jamas

Justamente al año de comprarla empezó a fallar, tarda al encender se queda en 8888 aprox un minuto y medio, al pesar tiene una variación entre 3-6 gramos aún dándole a Tara y marcando 0 pesas el alimento y al retirarlo ya marca estos 3-6 gr de diferencia

Like many people I'm overweight and have tried many "diets" to slim down. I'm now convinced calorie counting/portion control is the key to weight loss. This will be the 4th nutrition scale I've purchased and tried. The first one didn't work out of the box and was returned. The next one from Smart Chef actually worked well for 6 months then just quit. The scale still weighed food I just couldn't look up or transfer data. The weakness of any of these scales is the app that is used with them. I've got lots of experience with "smart" apps with Alexa connected to and operating everything possible in my home. What I've found is the more smart products a company powers the better their software team is at finding problems and restoring function after an issue with "the cloud". To get the necessary caloric values this app has to go through the cloud to a database for the info. The scale I purchased before this was a nice, accurate scale that had a network problem every time I opened the app. The sellers were nice folk that tried to be helpful but knew nothing about software and when communicating about the problem wasted my time asking stupid questions like I was an idiot. I have been using this for a week and although I had trouble at first logging data I fooled around with it until i learned how to use it. I should have taken a star off for lack of clear instructions but am so pleased it actually works as advertised. I did reach out for help at first and got an email contact form that said they'd get back to me in a few days. So not 5 star support, but they did open a case and asked for more info so there is some support if necessary. A through YouTube video would be very helpful. One of the most critical features is the ability to link with a fitness app to keep track of your progress. The two major players here are Apple Health and Fitbit. I bought and wore a Fitbit last fall just for the purpose of tracking everything, but was disappointed at how very little was automatically tallied and that I had to constantly sync to keep it up to date. I have been wearing a Samsung Galaxy watch for a few years and really like the Samsung Health app better than Fitbit or Google Fit. Unfortunately they are not a big enough player for many of these fitness trackers to link to. Enter the Health Sync app. For free or a tiny fee if you don't want any ads, the Health Sync app seamlessly moves data from Fitbit to Samsung Health, so all my fitness metrics are in one place. One of the things I like about the Etekcity scale and VeSync app is the flexibility to remove all the clutter for the home screen. The app is really trying to help folks with weight loss by suggesting different diets like keto or Mediterranean but all that can be turned off and removed. Another nice feature is so far everything I've looked up stays visible below the "look up food" window speeding up the discovery process. Another thing I like is I put a plate on the scale then zero it out with the tare button, let's say weigh a slice of protein bread, but then once that's recorded can zero out the scale again, put some sugar free raspberry jam on the toast and weigh get the additional calories logged. First weigh the salad, then with the dressing etc. The database is pretty extensive so far I've found something close to everything I've looked up. On the Keto diet spent years treating a potato or tortilla chip like poison. I just read a study that said regardless of diet choices calories are the key. This tool should help me eat what I want but in small enough portions to lose a pound a week until I reach my target.
