Ozeri Touch Professional Kitchen Scales: Review

Easy to read LCD display (image courtesy of Ozeri)

When I was asked if I would like to review kitchen scales by Ozeri, I have to be honest, it isn't a name I am familiar with. They are fairly new to this country, although well known in the USA - they sell their products on www.amazon.co.uk where their premium products receive favourable reviews.

These black tempered glass kitchen scales are a slim, contemporary, stylish design and will look fabulous on any work surface, or if you don't use your scales on a regular basis they will fit easily into a kitchen cupboard.

The scale is thoughtfully supplied with two lithium batteries so you are ready to go from the moment the scales are taken from their packaging. The User Manual is in large print and set out with clear, easy to understand instructions and diagrams. A Calorie Guide is included with the scales and whilst the measurements are aimed at the US market, the guide includes calories per gram and is useful for those here in the UK who count calories.

The kitchen scales offer:

2 x CR2032 Lithium batteries (included).
Weight Units: g, fl.oz, lb/oz, ml
Capacity: 5250g, 185.2fl.oz, 11lb 9.2oz, 5250ml

Low Battery Indicator.
Overload Indicator.

On/Off/Tare Button.
Unit Button

How do they perform? I use scales most days, if you are a baker then it is very natural to weigh everything. I tested them and made a Yorkshire Pudding which means switching from grams for weighing flour to fl.oz for the milk and water.  These digital scales make it very easy to weigh and add ingredients quickly.  The tare button works in a couple of seconds, it is easy to use the different unit measurements and the weight appears on the display immediately. Ozeri have thought of everything, there is a unit measurement display for lb oz instead of the usual oz display - many people here in the UK still use lb and oz measurements. I really like the large LCD display for easy reading.

The scales are on offer at Amazon.co.uk for £12.95.

Thank you Ozeri for the review sample.
