I didnt want red, so it's worth the $1.50 more, but you are correct. I never find a decent deal so i figured Id make an effort and try to pass one along. Oh well..maybe next time. 🙂
I have this as well. It works great. Actually gave the one i initially bought to my mom, and then bought another for myself. I've had this second one for about a year.
It's pretty useful to have around generally. We use it for cooking, baking, making coffee/cold brew, and even for measuring for postage when shipping out packages. Already saved us money there and has paid for itself.
I had this in my shopping cart for a few weeks - it's def a good deal for a basic kitchen scale. That said, I was looking for something better. The problem with many of these scales, including this one, I believe, is the aggressive auto-off is a killer. When these go into auto-off, they also tare / zero-out. So, if you're adding measured ingredients, such as... multiple hundreds of grams of flour, the damn thing can zero out right in the middle of you adding ingredients - if you're not careful. Once it zero's out, if you don't know where it left off at, you're kinda effed.
The above said, if you want the best kitchen scale, look for something that either has a very long period of time prior to auto-off/tare, or better yet, look for one that will stay on indefinitely if you want it to stay on indefinitely. I believe OXO makes one that does exactly that (but OXO is hard to buy less than retail other than the 20% discount at Bed Bath Beyond).
