Product Information

Type: Digital | Dimensions: ‎21.34 x 21.34 x 12.19cm‎ | Weight of unit: 150g | Weight capacity: 5kg What we like The right scale for you will depend on your personal needs. For instance, if you like baking bread at home, you’ll want to find a scale that has both a high weighing capacity and the ability to measure smaller percentages should you need to adjust your recipe. However, if you’re after something a little prettier for your kitchen worktop, then a classic vintage-style scale might be what you’re after. Type: Digital | Dimensions: 20 x 16.5 x 2cm ‎ | Weight of unit: 700g | Weight capacity: 5kg What we like Great for weighing wet ingredients as well as dry, these ones use the jug as your bowl with the weight shown on a digital LCD display usually found at the top of the handle.

Not all of us are blessed with kitchens that have a copious amount of worktop space, which makes this cleverly designed scale by Joseph Joseph ideal for cooks who have more bijou kitchens or are somewhat limited on storage. It’s also a brand that Mumsnetters love, with high praise for everything from their chopping boards to their salt and pepper grinders. Whilst it's only suitable for dry ingredients (not liquids), this reliable scale can measure at one-gram increments from weights as low as 2g through to a maximum of 5kg - making it ideal for everyday baking and cooking. The handy zero function tares the scale, so you can easily add additional ingredients to the same bowl and keep cleaning up to a minimum.

7. Best easy-to-use kitchen scale: ProCook Premium Glass Digital Scales

I have these and they're fab. The first set lasted about five years until they got dropped one too many times. Replaced immediately with another identical set!" (Rated by Mumsnet user MrsWidgerysLodger) Our verdict The old-fashioned type that works a bit like a seesaw in that you pop the weights on one side and the ingredients in the bowl on the other, then wait for them to balance. Type: Digital | Dimensions: ‎14.57 x 11.02 x 1.57 ‎cm | Weight of unit: 1.7kg | Weight capacity: 15kg What we like Suitable for liquids - Not all scales are suitable for use with liquids, so you’ll need to use a separate measuring jug or opt for scales with an aquatronic mode. Accuracy of results - How accurate are the scales? What is the lowest weight they can register and in what increments? For measuring finer, lighter ingredients such as yeast or salt, you may want to consider scales with precision accuracy, that offer the ability to register small increments in weight.

Best kitchen scale 2023: at a glance Many digital scales also offer added extras, such as doubling up as a chopping board or allowing you to weigh both wet and dry ingredients. The only downsides?

There’s often an ‘add and weigh’ (also called ‘tare’) function which resets your scales to zero when you need to add more ingredients – and with many of them, you can use your own bowl or jug. It's not the most accurate scale on our list and has a low maximum weight capacity, so you may want to avoid this model if precision is key. It’s also quite heavy and takes up quite a bit of worktop space. However, it is a really striking centrepiece for your kitchen. Ease of storage - How big is it? Does the kitchen scale need to stay on display on your kitchen countertops or is it compact enough to pop in a drawer or cupboard when not in use? For those who are really limited on storage space or have a smaller kitchen, slimline models or those that fold or flatten away may be the most suitable choice. Use knowledge of place value and addition and subtraction of two-digit numbers to derive sums and differences of decimalsSafety features - Many kitchen scales use button batteries which should be kept out of reach from children. Look out for designs which offer screwed battery containers or ensure that they are stored in a high cupboard and only used under parental supervision. While the scale can only be cleaned with a damp cloth, we love the stainless steel bowl, which can be popped in the dishwasher for freshening up after use. Along with all the standard features you’ll find in a good kitchen scale such as the add-and-weigh function (so several ingredients can be weighed in the same bowl), clear LCD display and auto shut-off function, these scales also have a built-in room thermometer - displaying the temperature from 0°C to 40°C. Type: Digital | Dimensions: ‎26 x 17 x 1.5cm‎ | Weight of unit: 800g | Weight capacity: 10kg What we like By far the most popular scales, mainly due to their compact shape and extreme accuracy in measuring even minuscule amounts. You can see the weight displayed on the LCD display screen in either grams or ounces and the unit can handle even fractions of a gram.

The built-in 99-minute timer has a distinctive beep, handy for bread-making and proving dough. We also like that it can weigh up to 5kg of ingredients thanks to the large, sturdy stainless steel bowl. There’s no doubt that balance scales will last years with no need for batteries, but they are time-consuming and less accurate than more modern scales when it comes to minute amounts. Jug scales Year 4: Solve addition and subtraction two-step problems in contexts, deciding which operations and methods to use and why. With an extra-large glass platform to accommodate even the largest mixing bowls, you can weigh up to 15kg directly on the platform or in a bowl. Slim and compact, you can then neatly store the unit as you would a chopping board and simply wipe it clean after use. Year 3: Add and subtract numbers mentally, including: a three-digit number and ones; a three-digit number and tens; a three-digit number and hundreds

How we chose our recommendations

While it has a fairly simplistic design, this practical tempered glass scale has a generous 15kg capacity, making it an ideal choice for those starting to take their baking more seriously - and, speaking of which, our guides to the best baking trays and top cake tins can help you out there. Type: Balance | Dimensions: ‎6.69 x 4.72 x 8.66cm | Weight of unit: 800g | Weight capacity: 1kg What we like The device has an easy on/off button and a larger platform than most scales with a smooth, tempered glass surface which is very easy to clean. The downside? Measuring very small quantities can be a little hit-and-miss, and you need to get the scales to register a weight initially before adding your first ingredients.
