can it be used as a bathroom scale?

Yes. It's great for weighing people. It's accurate at any weight from 1 lb. all the way to 330 lbs. I love it.

Yes, you can use it in a bathroom. You just need to pay attention in the size because it isn't too small

Not really, go for a model that has glass, or stainless steel on the top. That way you can wash it so you can put food directly on top. This one could be used with a food container by using the Tare button, but it will be hard to keep it clean. However, it is an ideal scale for people who use PayPal shipping, and Dymo printers, and any online shipping method that needs the exact weight to calculate the postage.

Not sure. Thought when I was looking into this that it could. You probably should ask the vendor. Very nice scale for $800.00. Looked at others, up to $2500.00, and this one does all that they do and for a bargain price.

I use it to weigh luggage and it works great, very accurate. But you don't hold it by hand, that's awkward and heavy and doesn't give you an accurate result. You need to find something to hang the scale from, like a closet rod or second level railing, or hook in ceiling, etc. It's always worked out for me, anywhere I was.

This scale like any other that uses a load-cell array needs to be used on a hard, flat surface in order to achieve an accurate reading. I wish I had a permanent home for mine but there is no room for it. I store mine leaning against the side of the vanity cabinet, then bring it into the bathroom (5' away) and use it there.

It has four little rubber feet so as long as they all touch it should work fine. I wanted a scale that would work on carpet and this one has no moving parts for about one inch off the floor so it does just fine on carpet. If the floor is especially rough as in, say, rustic tile, then I'd use a pad or flat board under it to make sure all the feet touch. The scale base is pretty ridgid but somewhere up around 250/300 pounds you might be able to get it to flex a little. Good choice for odd circumstances tho----

Yes but I don't recomend this scale. You have to adjust it back and corth EVERY TIME!!

The short answer is "yes." You simply put the measuring container (plate, cup, jar, whatever) on the scale and press the On/Off button. It immediately zeros the scale. You can then add the item to be weighed to the measuring container and the readout will display the weight of that item without having to subtract the weight of the container. Easy peasy! Apparently not everyone is aware of the tare function of this device -- hence some of the confusing answers.

I dont see why not. I weigh large envelopes that are 15 x 10 1/2". The only problem would be that you wouldnt be able to see the weight on the scale because the box may overhang. I find it to be accurate and great for the price.

Also this weight was on my digital bathroom scale so take that for what it is.

Yes. This scale can be set to display weight as either grams and kilograms, or ounces and pounds. You only need to press the MODE option.

Yes, just make sure the surface is dry, dirt free and if there's any rust use a wire brush to remove the scale.

There are lots of things that can effect a scales accuracy. Ie: carpet, uneven tile, leaning one way or another. To use mine I have to move it out from the wall place it on even tile,(challenging because my bathroom has small tiles) stand up straight, and not tough anything (like the wall for balance).

This scale is very slim, slightly under one inch. It should work nicely for you. I really like mine.

Absolutely! You can weigh ingredients for cooking or any other purpose. The only thing that makes this scale different is that, in addition to showing the weight, it can show you the caloric value as well as the nutritional value of the ingredients, if you enter the code provided. Without the code, you just see the weight, which can be in grams or oz.

No, it is not waterproof, so it is not suited for this type of measurement.
