I have the Etekcity scale. It is good looking and sleek but slow. You cannot use it to weigh an espresso while pulling the shot. The automatic power down is also annoying.
@@rebeccabrown5014 that's right it is not backlit so you can't read it in the dark but I assume you're not making coffee in the dark. It's easily readable, at least for me.
@@rebeccabrown5014 I should add that I use a different scale to weigh my coffee beans. A cheap $10 scale from Amazon that has .01 accuracy. Then I use the harp V60 scale when making the coffee.
I own the Etekcity and can report that it is not very consistent--I've received different measurements of the same amount by as much as 2 grams. Would not recommend for precise coffee weighing.
Frankly for Coffee and especially espresso I don't think I'd ever buy a sub $30 scale again. Way too many inconsistencies with taring. Example weighing out 19g picking the container up removing coffee and putting it back and the scale being off by 2g-4g. Not so much a problem with a pound cake, but for espresso 20%-30% off makes them useless. My next venture is the $63 TIMEMORE B22 and hopefully it won't suffer the same problems. It's a little bit on the jumbo size so there's that, and there's no way I'm spending $200 on a scale.

Thanks for reviewing scales people will actually buy 😃
Appreciate the kind words, Paul. We try to focus on both coffee brewing equipment and coffees that are accessible to most consumers!

I like the Gator coffee scale sold on Amazon, think it is about $25
The Hario V60 scale is highly recommended. It's really nice to use.
The Hario Scale doesn’t seem to be backlit so it seems like it would be hard to see well.
