The My Weigh KD-8000 Digital Scale


 

If I had to pick one thing that made me fall in love with these scales, it's the ability to disable the auto power-off feature completely. Other scales have destroyed my mixing sessions by shutting down halfway through, and once you've experienced that frustration, you'll know exactly what I'm talking about.

Why These Scales Work for Me

  • Auto power-off you can disable - The scale never shuts down in the middle of a mix, which has driven me crazy with other scales. This alone is worth the price.
  • Excellent battery life - One set of 3x AA batteries lasts me over a year using them every day with the backlight on. There's also a mains adapter included if you prefer to stay plugged in.
  • One-gram precision - I make sure I'm accurate to the gram for every ingredient. While it won't make or break a bake, accuracy is important to me and promotes consistency.
  • Eight-kilo capacity - To put this in perspective, this would weigh enough flour to make 16 of my country sourdough loaves.
  • Large, stable platform - Big enough for large bowls and wide enough to weigh out 1000g doughs when scaling. The stainless steel platform pops off in seconds for cleaning, and the protective cover keeps flour and dough away from the buttons and display.
  • Fast, steady readings - Locks on quickly and stays stable, backlight makes it super easy to read no matter the lighting.

These scales just work, reliably and precisely, every single time. I've been using mine daily for years and they've never let me down.
