Greater Goods Digital Nutrition Scale – Accurate Macro and Calorie Tracking for Meal Prep, Weight Loss, and Healthy Eating | 2,000 Built-in Foods, Intuitive Nutrition Label Display, 11lb Cap, Pink

Likes: Number one for me is that I LOVE the display since it mirrors the label format that is on packaged foods. The code book and instructions are online if you lose your book. Online support. Easy to learn to use. Accurate. Attractive. I store mine in a plastic IKEA magazine holder when not in use. No seams on the glass anywhere so that germs won't lurk. Easily wiped off but not waterproof--I feel this is unnecessary barring big accidents with liquids. "Okays" and limitations: Can't use decimals for nutrient values. You must round up or down or double the weight in order to get whole numbers. I figure this compromise on accuracy makes no difference. Shuts off automatically to save the batteries. No micronutrients are listed, if you need that. You need to track your food codes manually by writing them down. It would be great if the app allowed you to save your codes! I wish it had a USB charger vs batteries. It is very accurate. I checked it with items of known weight. You can put your container on the scale before turning it on and it will automatically zero (deduct the weight of the container). I like the feature that allows you to add food codes of frequently eaten items. I wish there were more than 99 custom codes though I honestly don't know that I need to save that many. No barcode scanning. The code book is pretty limited....some regular foods like a fresh apple are not listed. Go figure. But never fear, there is an app you can download that seems to have many more codes "Perfect Portions." You can Favorite your frequently used foods in the app. I use a tracking app called CarbManager where I can scan actual bar codes for packaged food. These can be put in the scale as a Custom Code once you have the data. I look up fresh food data on a reputable online database so I have more choices than what is included in the Perfect Portion app. This scale helps me to accurately assemble a recipe and know what nutrients are in it. Further, I can determine a what a serving size is by figuring the carbs (in my case) per gram and adjust accordingly--I then change the serving size in my custom CarbManager recipe so I know how much I can consume without going over my limits. You can add serial foods to a container to make up a dish with several ingredients and it calculates individual and total nutrients. You can save nutrients for the whole day by using the same function. The manual gives very clear instructions for this and you can contact support online too. Overall, with a little ingenuity and good tracking (either with an app or manual) this scale can help you to conveniently form an very accurate picture of your nutrients to manage carbs, calories, and other macronutrients. Though it's impossible to find a scale or app to do it all, this scale is awesome for the price, is easy to use, has a great warranty and good support. Excellent accuracy, max 10 lbs.

UPDATE: this is the best food scale I have EVER owned!!! I wish they also made a portable version!!! 8/10/17 I've had the scale for two days and I actually called (and emailed) customer service because I wanted to ask 2 questions: 1. can custom codes be overwritten since they are limited (A: Yes) and 2. is there a way to enter food label information without creating a custom code. (A: No) The scale is amazing; it's easy to use and look up codes. It also has a zero feature that can allow you to calculate your meal. Shipping was quick, customer service is expedient and friendly, and the scale arrived as described, in perfect condition. My favorite feature besides being able to add custom foods (using a food label) is the on/OFF button. I love being able to turn it off instead of wait for it to auto shut off. I also love being able to turn it on without having to do those annoying repeated taps, presses, etc. This is a great design scale. As of right now, one of my best Amazon purchases! The only thing that was somewhat of a con for me is I wish the scale had the ability to directly enter food label for foods WITHOUT having to save a custom code for it. It would've been great to have another mode "Label" that would allow you to instantly enter food label info for that one-time item. I did test the over-writing of a custom code and it is true...you just have to clear the current info and re-enter the info for the new food and it will save it and replace the previous info.

This scale works great. I love how the scale gives you all of the foods information. It’s easy to use, you can even download the code app in case you don’t have your booklet with you.

Love this scale, it helps me calculate my protein intake.

I've been using this macro tracking scale for a while now, and I must say, it's been an absolute game-changer. One of the standout features for me is its simplicity and accuracy.

What sets this scale apart is its ability to simplify macro tracking by allowing you to select individual foods.

The scale's precision is impressive, ensuring that I get precise measurements every time. Whether I'm weighing out a portion of chicken breast, vegetables, or even a handful of nuts, I can trust that the scale's readings are spot on. This level of accuracy is crucial for anyone serious about monitoring their macronutrient intake. Another aspect I appreciate is its sleek design and user-friendly interface. The scale is compact yet robust, fitting seamlessly into my kitchen without taking up too much space. The buttons are intuitive, making it easy to navigate through different food options and adjust settings as needed. Overall, this macro tracking scale has exceeded my expectations.

Delivery arrived without supporting reference book and when I asked for assistance they refuse I strongly suggest Amazon stop selling this scale if the person lives outside of U.S.

les codes pour la balance sont en anglais donc pas très pratique pour faire la recherche, on perd un temps fou. Au bout d'une semaine d'utilisation j'ai arrêté à cause de cela.
