Contrary to popular belief, kitchen scales aren't just for pastry wizards.
To determine accuracy, we tested each scale with calibrated five-gram, 10-gram, 100-gram, and 500-gram weights. The weights were tested multiple times on the centers of the scales as well as each corner, to ensure that accuracy wasn't dependent on where the weight was placed on the platform. The majority of the scales were consistently accurate; only four displayed inaccuracies of between one and three grams.
Finally, we tested each scale's accuracy at measuring small amounts incrementally. We weighed 40 grams of salt, one pinch at a time, to see if the scales could accurately measure it. While most performed well, a few were off by as much as 20 grams, and one scale could not even complete the test, repeatedly timing out before all the salt was measured.
A few scales took a more inventive approach with button placement, much to our testers' confusion. The button most often used is the tare function, but one scale had it placed so close to the on/off button that we often ended up accidentally turning off the scale. Though switching between metric and customary should be a similarly simple and accessible function, some scales required the use of a toggle switch beneath the unit, or even hidden inside it.
