Flawed design. Takes two batteries, needs four. Not exactly as pictured.
Pros:
Compact, accurate, backlit screen, stainless steel weighing surface.
Cons:
Takes 2 AAA batteries, when it would work better with 4. Came with one Penesamig, and one PemesaniG battery.
Batteries are nearly worthless. One was dented, and I snapped it in half with my fingers while checking its strength.
Other:
The picture shows a calibration button, but the one I received uses the mode button for both functions.
Review:
I bought a very similar scale YEARS ago on ebay, and it worked very well for me for several years until I did something to it (probably a chemical spill) that caused it to flip out. I decided to replace it with this model, which appears to be very similar. The big difference is that my old scale used 4 AAA batteries, for a nominal 6V operation. My old one ran for a long time on a single set of batteries.
This scale (using only 2 batteries, for 3V nominal) turned on, displayed "Lo" and immediately turned off. I checked the voltage of the batteries, and they were at 1.48V and 1.38V for 2.86V. Alkaline cells aren't usually "dead" until about 0.9V, so there should have been plenty of juice left in them to operate the scale. I swapped them out for fresh batteries (Energizers at 1.5V) and the scale worked fine. Swapping one of the fresh batteries out with a used one (Energizer at 1.3V) also caused it to read "Lo".
If 2.86V is insufficient voltage, then the scale will be unusable when the batteries still have about 90% of their charge left! Rechargeable Ni-MH batteries are useless, as their nominal voltage is 1.2V. Even at 1.4V fresh off the charger, they didn't work.
There are 4 slots for batteries (just like my old model) but there are only electrodes for 2. At this point, I cannibalized my old scale, taking the battery contacts out, and installing them into the new scale, desoldering the old wires, and soldering new ones in to create a series arrangement. Now I have 4 batteries installed, and it operates fine, even with run-down (1.1V) batteries.
Other thoughts:
The old scale had a voltage rating of 4.5-9V printed on the circuit board. There was no indication on this scale, but since it can handle 6V fine, then 3V may be the MINIMUM voltage. If you're going to try a conversion, know that there are screws underneath the black plastic face. You'll need to pull it off, or cut through it at those spots.
If I didn't have the old scale to scavenge, I would have needed new battery contacts.

An Excellent Tap, Through and Through
Excellent tap, made in USA, cutting edges are super sharp, the fit of the fastener that goes into the hole is superb.
