Choosing a scale

Digital bathroom scales: every one reads up to 180 kg with a step-on start, so there is no button to press. The square designs are about 26 x 26 cm and the round glass ones 30 to 33 cm across. The hot air balloon scale reads in 100 g steps on a large backlit display, and the black or grey scale has a ribbed, slip-resistant top.

Mechanical bathroom scale: an analogue dial with a yellow footprint design, reading up to 130 kg. There are no batteries to replace: step on and read the dial.

Kitchen scale: a round glass-top digital scale, about 18.5 cm across, that reads up to 15 kg in 1 g steps, with touch buttons including a unit switch. Choose black and white chequerboard or light green.

Frequently asked questions

Do the scales need batteries?

It depends on the scale. The kitchen scale runs on batteries, the lemon and orange slice bathroom scales are USB rechargeable, and the mechanical bathroom scale needs no power at all.

Why do two scales give different readings?

Small differences between two scales are normal. For readings you can compare, use the same scale on a hard, flat floor, in the same spot and at the same time of day. Our guide to accurate bathroom scale readings explains why.
