Is this scale certified by weights and measures?

Not to my knowledge, no. On our farm stand we let the customers know it wasn't a certified scale but that we had tested it ourselves and found it to be accurate, and nobody had a problem with it. We always round the price to the nearest nickel anyway, so we don't need anything any more accurate than that. Your application could have different requirements.

I don't believe it is. I think if I recall it says it's not in the add. The ones that are as I recall are really expensive.

Not a legal for trade scale. If the state were to stop by, or a customer called the state on you then it doesn't matter how you round the price. If you are selling products at a per pound price then you could get in trouble with the state.

Not that I know of. I was able to return this scale. It's the worst one 've ever owned. It wasn't accurate at all after a couple of months.

According to the User Manual, the scale can be calibrated. We have tried the feature, just for fun, and by using a 100 g. weight, it gets calibrated automatically. Simple to follow instructions.

It's been awhile since I bought it. I don't remember, but I can tell you I have not had any problems the scale. It has worked flawlessly and it's eztremely accurate.

Seems to be very accurate and consistent. It measures in the tenths of a pound, though, and will take a few seconds to "settle" on a number, very sensitive to any movement while standing on it. We use it at our TOPS (Take Off Pounds Sensibly) meetings, and so far have not had anyone "blame the scale".. :)

When I purchased this scale it was already pre-calibrated. I just used it right away and have never had a problem with it being inaccurate!

Yes, this is a consistently accurate scale. And we are so happy our customers agree! Thank you all for answering.

No, but I simply put large packages on it and wait 5 seconds, short count, then the weight locks in for a bit. Remove the package and you can see the weight. I absolutely recommend this scale!

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.

I've been happy with the scale. It seems to measure pretty accurately. Never had any problems yet. Yes, it measures in g/kg and shows measurements in (.01) units.

I am using this through www.shippingeasy.com. I have used this with USPS, UPS and FEDEX and I have had no problems with this scale.

To be honest with you I don't recall.. I can't imagine that it does not, but I was not satisfied w/the results in pounds (when compared to other scales I had) so I returned it for lack of accuracy.The lack of accuracy would have reflected both in pounds and kilograms so the issue was moot to me.I highly recommend that you read all reviews before deciding to buy this product!

Seems to be consistent. As far as accuracy goes I can't say. Certain scales weigh me heavier, others lighter.

Yes, just put it on the scale and hit the tare button and the scale will zero with the "weigh-boat" on it. Then you will know the exact weight of what you put in it. Very pleased with my scale!

The scale comes pre calibrated with a certificate of calibration. However if you still want to check accuracy just use a dime or nickel.

I have not experienced any problem with consistent accuracy in weighing on this scale.

Yes. I have bought several times and it's the same. I always assumed the weight to be accurate.
