Anyone who has one (8 qt) and a somewhat accurate scale - could you advise the weight w/o lid? Thanks

The Amazon description states it's 7 lbs. I think that's with lid, the lid doesn't seem very heavy so the pot is probably a little over 6 lbs. hope this helps.

I do not have that accurate of a scale, but it could not weight to more than a pound.

Mine is 5 lbs 10 oz with lid on and 4 lbs 4 oz with lid off. Conveniently, the lid by itself weights 1 lb 6 oz, so I suppose I have a somewhat accurate, or at least consistent scale.

Thanks for your thoughtful reply, however I already own a set of scales (have had for years) which measure in fluid ounces and was seeking to replace it as the buttons have become worn. It is the Salter 3003 Aquatronic Glass Electronic Kitchen Scale. I decided in the end to replace like with like. I understand what you are saying about weight / volume, but this scale seems to be able to do it at least good enough for cooking purposes, though I couldn't vouch for their accuracy. Thanks again though.

Without putting it on the scale... It's surprisingly lightweight. A few pounds, perhaps? I can hold it with one finger. One of the reasons I really like it. Sturdy, but not heavy like my old one! Hope this helps.

I have the same problem. The only way to get around this that I know of, is to first step on the scale, wait for the reading. Then step off and wait for It to reset, or It says ready. Then step on again and It should be correct. For some reason It is off by 4 or 5 pounds, the first time you use It after auto shutoff. I wonder If the manufacturer knows this ?

I attempted to weigh it on my scales and it does not register, so must be less than one pound. I do not find it to be heavy enough to hinder using it.

My digital scales read 3 1/2 lbs. It seems a little heavier than that. I think you could go to the Fiskars' web page and get an accurate weight.

I couldn't tell you an actual weight as I don't own a scale. It is quite light though considering the quality of thickness.

I didn't weigh it myself. It is light weight compared to my last laptop for sure. You need a special scale to weigh it. So I can't. Just figure they are right

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.

I don't have a scale, but it's definitely not 12.8 oz. It's very lightweight, and around 4" long.

Yes! I actually got on the scale holding it and it was 8 lbs, maybe even just 7.

Dino: I just weighed the UL20a on my digital scale. It came out as 3.4 pounds. Given that there is a possibility that the scale is not 100 percent precise, I'd say the manufacturer's quoted weight listing (3.3 pounds) is accurate. Diplomacy and collegiality among Amazon customers dictates that I not comment on your age or physical capabilities.:-) Mitch

I purchased the 6 quart EC6D43, the Lodge Enameled Cast Iron Dutch Oven. My scale weighed it, with the lid, at about 13 lbs. This is the reason that I did not order the large size of 7.8 qt. With that larger weight, full of beef stew, I'd need a winch to get it out of the oven. Love this pot!

I weighed ours on our bathroom scale 3 times...7#. Definitely not light-weight, but speaks well for the even heating of the cookware.

Hi to zero scale use the little wheel under the round Dial. adjust it every time u use it if u need accurate daily weights

The crock pot alone is 7 lb, 15 oz. (A real handful, especially if it's hot.) Add the lid, and you got 9 lb, 8 oz.... The heating/control unit weighs only 3 lb, 3 oz.. Add it all together and you have a 12 lb, 11 oz appliance to deal with.. Big footprint, big capacity; and works well for BIG meals... Not worth a hoot for "Cooking for Two" LOL

The 8 inch pan weighs a bit over one pound without the lid; a little over 2 pounds with the lid. Very light. My husband almost flipped the eggs over his shoulder the first time he used it. :)
