Customers say
Customers find the kitchen scale easy to use and appreciate its dual platform design with two size options. They like its appearance and compact size, with one customer noting it makes weighing food convenient. The functionality and accuracy receive mixed reviews – while some find it accurate and easy to use, others report it randomly stops working and has accuracy issues. Moreover, durability is a concern as several customers report the scale breaking after less than two months of use.

Good for Weighing Recipe Ingredients
My old scale didn’t measure small quantities accurately, and the small scale on this unit takes care of that for recipes calling for weighed ingredients. My old scale weighs up to fifty pounds, so that one is now used for calculating postage for mailed packages. Since the weighing platforms aren’t removable, I cover the scale with plastic wrap to keep to keep it clean while using it to measure flours.

My Kitchen Scale Just Got a Sidekick and My Baking is Grateful!
My relationship with kitchen scales has been a journey. I started with a basic digital one, which was fine for measuring flour by the cup (converted to grams, because I was trying to be fancy). Then I got into baking, real baking, the kind that requires measuring yeast in amounts smaller than a sneeze. My old scale just laughed at me, displaying a defiant “0g” until I’d dumped in enough yeast to leaven a small car. Clearly, I needed more precision. And maybe a little more capacity for when I decided to make a truly epic batch of cookies. That’s when the KitchenAid Dual Platform Digital Kitchen and Food Scale entered my life.I saw the two platforms and immediately thought, “It’s a scale with a buddy!” The large platform handles the heavy lifting – flour, sugar, that giant bowl of dough. It’s got capacity for days (up to 11 pounds!). But the real star, for my baking needs anyway, is the smaller, precision platform. This thing measures in tiny increments, perfect for those microscopic amounts of yeast, salt, or spices that make all the difference. It’s like having a regular scale and a jeweler’s scale had a very useful baby.Using them together is where the magic happens. The dual display shows both weights at the same time. I can be measuring flour for the main dough on the big side and simultaneously portioning out a minuscule amount of fancy sea salt for a topping on the small side. I feel like a mad scientist in a culinary lab, meticulously weighing out ingredients with pinpoint accuracy. My cat is probably wondering why I’m suddenly so focused on small piles of white powder.The tare function works flawlessly on both platforms, which is essential for adding multiple ingredients to the same bowl without doing complicated math (my brain is not a calculator, especially before tea). The scale itself is sleek and doesn’t take up too much counter space, which is a minor miracle in my crowded kitchen.If you’re tired of your scale ignoring tiny, crucial ingredients, if you need capacity for larger batches but precision for delicate measurements, and you enjoy the feeling of having a highly capable kitchen sidekick, this dual platform scale is fantastic. It’s well-made, incredibly accurate, and has made my baking (and general cooking) much more consistent and less prone to accidental ingredient avalanches. My baked goods are happier, and so is my sanity. I’m thoroughly impressed with this two-in-one wonder.

Barely decent until it stops working after a few cleaning sprays
When I got this kitchen scale 3 years ago, it seem “decent” to weight food. The main platform seemed to have accuracy issues where the food fluctuated between 5-8 grams of a 500 grams item ( bowl + food). You could test this by just raising the bowl and putting it back on the scale and it will have 5-8 grams of error each time.This issue was only compensated by the smaller scale platform accuracy which was overall better. Only issue with the smaller scale platform is seems to have a weight limit ~700g, plus space is definitely narrower for a big bowl.Also there is the power off issue where it would not power off if it not stable on the counter, which is a dumb idea because that prevented me to power off the device while it was on my hand. Also this would become an issue later when it stop working and can’t be power off unless the batteries are take out.And then there is the batteries. Who designs an electronic device that takes 3 batteries?! It should always be in pairs (2, 4, 6, 8 …) because most rechargeable batteries charges will only charge them in pairs. I know this is probably a small issue but this annoyed me every time I needed to recharge my lithium batteries.Now the main issue after 3 years of usage: it is nowhere water resistant. There were a few times where I needed to clean it by spraying multi purpose cleaner (small spray quantity as I know is not water proof) due to spilling a few drops of raw meat water while weighting. Now it says always UNSE/ERR on the display which it wasn’t unstable because it was stable on my counter top. I could also see that inside the display there is water and humidity which indicates that water has entered through the display cavity.While I know it says is no water proof, I would definitely think that it should resist more than a few cleaning sprays because at the end of the day you might be weighing raw food.Definitely this scale is not worth its price.

Great quality.
Great quality and was accurate for weighing meat. I’d buy it again.

Nearly 5 stars…but it has upped my baking skills.
Definitely one of the best scales I have ever owned. Reduced it by one star because, who ever designed it, must have been left handed. When I pour from the right, I can no see the numbers. They should have been located on the left side of the scales.

Like most Kitchen Aid products, this is high quality and looks great. The dual scale is brilliant for measuring small amounts like 7g of yeast when making bread for example. Overall an excellent purchase.

I like that these scales take AAA batteries instead of the silver flat batteries that don’t seem to last very long. The display is very easy to read. I’m happy with my purchase even though they are on the expensive side, but I’m hoping the scales last me many years.
