Can you store this scale on it's side?

I don't see why not. I store mine flat but I have a friend who stores a similar glass scale on its side. Of course, if you plan to do so, you should do it gently.

honestly, I don't think so. It's very thin (in a good way) & glass top (fragile), so I would not & have not. Would also not buy if small children in house (no hopping/jumping on this scale - just a nice step on). I am very, very pleased with it overall for the price. : ]

I would think so. It is very thin and could probably be stored behind a dresser or bed if you a 1/2 inch space.

No. The base is larger than the actual case, unless you cut down the base. Even then, I doubt that I would trust the case to carry that much weight on its sides, because the shelves sit on pins and probably wouldn't distribute the weight properly.

YES! The company sells this scale with an adapter and adapters are available if you bought one without the adapter.

Unfortunately - no. It is so accurate because it is so sensitive. You need to find a flat place to keep it permanently - although it can be reset whenever you move it. It seems like a drag, but the other wonderful aspects of this scale far outweigh this one inconvenience.

Yes! You will have to hold it or tape it to the side. I love it, you will too. It has multi-functions. Enjoy.

Yep. The readout is placed so it can easily be read. THere's also a function that freezes the readout so you can weigh the box, remove it, and then see the weight. You could do a loit worse than this scale. Best,JRD

absolutely you can place a larger box on it and hold the reading. i do it often. Actually, I really love this scale...it's accurate and easy to use.

Yes, I think it's flexible enough to accommodate that. Plus, it's open on the left and right, for anything that's a little wide/long. I have a flat kitchen scale and a 3/4" slate cheese board stacked together in mine.

Yes you can place a large box on it and see the display. Whats great about this scale is that after you place your item on it, wait a couple of seconds, then all you have to do is press the hold button. You can then remove the box and the correct weight will display for about 5 to 8 seconds after.

Yes, the sides are pretty well straight. I think you're thermometer would stand up straight without any problem.

Yes you can store on side. If it leaks there is something wrong with the product.

There is a weighing pad that connect to the display. You can put it anywhere, easy to use. Love ours.

It contains a sealed liquid battery; while it should not be a problem to lay it on its side for a short time, it's probably better for the long term to keep it upright. If you're using this in a rack, you may want to find a rack-mount solution.

Definitely. I placed mine on it's side, rather than upright, but it's pretty heavy duty. One side of mine cracked during shipping (USPS did a crappy job), and the company replaced it for me with no hassle.

Not that I am aware of, but very importantly the scale must be on a hard floor - not a carpet or even vinyl tile otherwise it will display lower weight.

Unless you see it anywhere on the directions that come with the unit. I would not put it on it's side.

I have stored mine on its side and so far I have had no problem. I've had mine almost 5 months.
