Kenex Simplex Scale 600 0.1g - 600g Digital Scale SIM-600

Having recently purchased the Kenex Simplex Scale 600 from Glow Bar LDN, I'm sharing my candid thoughts on this digital scale based on my personal experience.

The Kenex Simplex Scale 600 provides decent precision for everyday use, measuring down to 0.1g. It's suitable for tasks like measuring ingredients for cooking and baking. However, I've noticed occasional fluctuations in readings, which can be a bit concerning for those requiring high precision.

The design is straightforward and functional. The stainless steel platform is easy to clean, and the large LCD display is clear. However, the touch-sensitive buttons feel a bit cheap and can be unresponsive at times, requiring multiple presses.

The overall build quality is average. The plastic housing feels a bit flimsy, and the scale lacks the sturdiness I would expect. While it holds up during regular use, there's a noticeable wobble when weighing items near the maximum capacity.

The scale offers essential functionality, including taring and unit conversion. The response time is acceptable, providing relatively quick readings. However, the auto-off feature can be too quick during tasks, interrupting the workflow.

I've been satisfied with the battery life. The two AAA batteries have proven to be long-lasting, even with regular use. The auto-off feature likely contributes to the efficient use of battery power.

In conclusion, the Kenex Simplex Scale 600 is a basic digital scale that fulfills its fundamental purpose. While it's suitable for everyday use and offers decent battery life, there are notable drawbacks, including concerns about precision, wobbling during use, and the feel of the touch-sensitive buttons. If you need a simple scale for general kitchen tasks and can overlook these limitations, the Kenex Simplex Scale 600 might suit your needs. However, users seeking higher precision and sturdier construction might want to explore other options.
