For health-conscious cooks concerned about accurate portion control, Polder's little scale is just the ticket. Small enough to tuck in a drawer, its plain design and light color blend in on the countertop as well. The bowl is detachable and dishwasher-safe--just wipe down the scale as necessary--and the red dial is easy to read, measuring in both ounces and grams. Not just for dieters, it also works well as a first kitchen scale for bakers who want to see if weighing ingredients makes a noticeable difference over standard measuring cups. --Jill Lightner

Best Value:
This is a great scale. My wife and I are dieting and weighing out portion sizes is an important part of our routine. This scale is well made, a convenient size and has the removable tray/cup which makes for easy cleaning. Well worth the (small) investment.
A fine little scale:
I bought this scale when I started counting calories. It helps me be more aware of portion size. It is especially helpful when I am not working from a recipe. It is not as precise as a digital scale, but it is also much less expensive. It seems like it would work best when cooking for only 1 or 2 people since the bowl at the top is not that big. Since it is small enough to live on my counter top, I use it much more frequently than my larger kitchen helpers that live out of sight.
