CGOLDENWALLPrecision Lab Scale Digital Analytical Balance Laboratory Balance Jewelry Scale Scientific Scale 0.01g Accuracy 110V (5000g, 0.01g)

This is the 2nd balance we have purchased from GoldenWall. The balance (like the other one which has a larger 5kg capacity) is a great size for tabletop use and the display screen is large and easy to read. The balance is easy to calibrate and comes with a calibration weight. I am very impressed with GoldenWall's customer service. The balance shipped quickly and arrived in great condition. I have contacted them multiple times with questions and they have always responded in less than 24 hours. Each correspondence is professional, friendly and of course knowledgeable. They have resolved each and every question or issue we had. That is excellent customer services!Our company has purchased two balances from them in the past 3 months and we will be buying our next balance from GoldenWall as well. The customer service from GoldenWall is outstanding and that is something which is very important to me when dealing with a vendor. I recommend GoldenWall and their balances.

Very good and accurate scale for the cost.

Need to glue the dust cover together so it doesn't spontaneously disassemble. Performed the 1-point calibration per the manual instructions, and then did a tare weight calibration. That calibration drifted a few .1 mg over time, and a few .01mg in a few minutes. I don't need to have that precise a measurement for this scale so I am happy with it.

We bought a few of the 1000g version of this balance for our classrooms. They're about what you might expect for the cost, so I'm only docking one star. Not exemplary, but just realize that at this price, you're only paying for bare-bones functionality. For our purposes in introductory level science classes, they are adequate.There are a few things to be aware of. First, the thumb-screw leveling feet are very... interesting. Instead of the usual two adjustable feet, all FOUR of the feet are adjustable, and they are EXTREMELY loose. Together, these factors are both a benefit and a curse. It's helpful because with four adjustable feet, you can very quickly dial in the balance to be level. However, BECAUSE of the many points of adjustment, and the lack of any resistance to turning, it's sometimes easy for students to create a situation where the unit is slightly off-kilter and wobbles when loaded. In these situations, you'll have to readjust the "floating" feet back down, so they are flush with the lab bench or table.I must also mention the draft hood. It's flimsy, feels like it's made of polystyrene, and it must be assembled yourself. I am fine with this. However, the main issue with the hood is that it's very wobbly. Its base just won't lay perfectly flush with the chassis of the balance. Ultimately this does not affect its function, but it is quite annoying.Some positive aspects. Despite their light weight, these balances seem to be relatively stable. Despite their lack of inertial damping, we haven't had issues with vibrations affecting weighing. They are also quick to reach a stable reading. It's also nice that a calibration weight was included, although we haven't tested it against our more expensive calibration weights. For our purposes though, it is adequate.In this review, I am taking the price into great consideration. The materials are cheap, and the fit & finish are very lacking. You are most definitely NOT getting Mettler-Toledo quality here, but at this price point, you shouldn't expect to. This balance fundamentally delivers what it's supposed to, despite the flaws it suffers from due to cost-cutting. And, it still works as it should, after two semesters of light use. Four stars.

It's only just 'out of the box' and set up but it arrived in perfect condition and the instructions - and actual set up - were clear and easy. I immediately tried it out with some sterling and it was easy to select the OZT for Troy ounces. We're using it with AC connected but will also be adding battery for more portable use.The instructions have a lot of practical advice about avoiding unsteady platforms, etc; and, there is a very convenient 'Bull-eye' leveling 'bubble' and easy to adjust footings.Happy so far- and it wasn't a big price tag.

AVOID!!! The balance screen freezes frequently. JUNK!We weight liquids to filing bottles in a cleanroom, this scale freezes midway through adding liquids. Completely useless as a scale.We have $15 scales that perform better and have been dependable for years.While this may be accurate and able to handle up to 5kg, its completely worthless if its unable to display current weight.WOULD NOT BUY AGAIN. Buy any other scale except this one.Unfortunately I am 2 days beyond the return window as we had to update a bunch of our SOP's & GMPs prior to using this scale in our cleanroom. Our paperwork process took 2 days too long and now we are stuck with this POS scale that we cannot use.We have wasted hours of work and thousands in product by our continuous attempts to make this scale work. WASTE OF TIME AND MONEY!!! AVOID!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!This is one of the first reviews on Amazon I've ever made. While we purchased poor performing products or amazing products, they just were not worth the effort to review. HOWEVER, this scale is worth the time to review. Beyond the actual product cost, it also cost us $1,000++ more in lost wages and product by trying to use this POS. DO NOT BUY!!!

Works well. Get the precision that you need. More is not always better.I use mine in the field with batteries and it works very well. I built a box for it to keep the wind from messing with the readings. It is able to be calibrated.Seems accurate and is a good price.

I bought the scale for mixing body shop chemicals, paints, and fillers.They are excellent!But it's very sensitive. I have to turn my fans the other direction while measuring or the scale will detect the wind of the fan. It warns you of that in the owners manual, and it's correct, they're very sensitive.
