Is this scale pretty accurate for weighing items that are less than 1 lb? (Would it accurately weigh clothes, for example)?

I use it to weight envelopes for the office and they have never been returned for insufficient stamps.

I use this scale to weigh packages with clothes and it is within .1 of an ounce correct.

Some digital personal scales costing 6 times as much advertise an accuracy of +- 1%. So if you weighted 150# the scale could read +-1.5 # or 3 pounds. Just because it has a resolution of .1# doesn't mean it' that accurates.

I'm using mine in Rigging class to measure weights varying from 1lb to 6lbs. It's pretty accurate for my application. I don't know about anything less than a pound.

It measures your weight and syncs with the app very well. I find the body fat and hydration numbers are not as accurate. I would recommend this scale though.

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. It allows you to set up the container and reset it to zero. Then you can have an accurate weight.

It's pretty accurate. You just have to be sure that it is on level ground. If it isn't, your weight will be different every single time.

I do not have a very accurate light weighting scale, I used a regular scale the one you step onto and it weighed between 5- 6 pounds. I hope this helps you, I find it to be very light, just know that it is not a touch screen.

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

It's very accurate! I've used for items as low as 5 or 6 ounces and several pounds

Less than 1 Lb. Doesn't register on my digital bathroom scale ( weighing myself alone and then holding it).

Hi, Pat That's a really good question. I have been selling scales for several years. We carry pocket scale, kitchen scale, postal scale, pallet scale even some very professional scale. For your question, I'd like to say basically yes. Even sometimes you saw a high capacity scale with 0.1 oz preceison, that might be false advertisement unless there's new technology coming out now. This weighmax scale has a capacity of 75lbs and I described it as 0.2 oz precision. Actually, it can be used like that: When you weigh something under 35lbs, it's accurate to 0.1oz. when you weigh something above 35lbs, it will be accurate to 0.2 oz. When People weigh something really heavy, they won't care about that much about the graduations. So this might answer your concern, when you weigh anything under 35lbs, you can get like 30lb 1oz, 30lb 2 oz. Any other concerns, please let me know.

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

I was able to weight several size kitchen whisks and and articles of clothing down to 1oz. I also measured two packaged products a 1oz each and got a 2oz result in weighting both. it seems fairly accurate.

I would not recommend this scale if you are looking to measure anything more than your weight. BF measurements and bmi measurements are way off. Yes this does measure increments of .01 kg.

I did not have to calibrate it but I can only speak for myself. I use it to ship out first class items or 1-3 pound items. When I get a reading of 4.5 ounces, I send out package at 5 ounces. I've never had an item weigh too much. Hope that helps.
