does this scale weigh grams as well as ounces?

Hi, I had shipped the scale back the same day it arrived 'cause the digital display was not working properly (the lines were incomplete and so I couldn't make out the numbers). I don't recall if it had both grams and ounces. I purchased a Kamenstein brand, model #5105597, which is very sturdy and can weigh up to 11 lbs / 5Kg and love it.

Yes, it has 2 "modes" Pounds/ounces or Kilograms/grams. Switches easily from one mode to the other with a tap of the "mode" button.

Yes - you can switch to grams and KG, although I've only used pounds and ounces.

Hi DebraC, default is in both ounces and grams. you press the lb/kg button to change from one to the other.This can be done before or during weighing something.Hope this helps.Enjoy.

No, it weighs a couple of ounces at most and it's very poorly made, totally inaccurate. Don't waste your money!

Yes, this scale will read 3.7x grams with a small weight. I continue to be amazed at the accuracy of this balance; I taught chemistry for 40 years and bought this balance to weigh things for demonstrations in local schools. I have a set of calibrated weights and the balance is accurate from tenths of grams to over 100 grams. I highly recommend it.

From the way the ad was worded it appears it is grams only, but it does switch to ounces. Mine is accurate and I highly recommend it.

i used a 50 gram weight to calibrate it, so an ounce is 28 grams, right? you might need to use a tupperware, re-calibrate it with the tupperware on scale... an ounce is a little bulky for the small face of the scale. but love this scale.

Yes. That is correct. I tested it tonight at your request. I placed three objects on the scale that all together weigh 10.00 oz. Then I added an object that weighs .6 oz. The display read 10 oz. Never did it read 10.6 oz. The same result whether the additional weight was .5, .4, .3, .2, or .8 oz. When I added a full ounce, then the display changed to 11 oz. I hope that answers your question.

I have not had this problem with this scale, check batteries and I would ask if you are sure you are on the lb and ounce measurement setting not grams, etc. Also if it had any water poured on it accidentally I had to replace previous scale after I spilled liquid on it.

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!

Yes, this scale does show the ounces. It is accurate, however since we use it in our Shipping/Receiving department primarily for UPS and FX shipments and not US Mail packages, I would not be able to respond to your second question.

Unfortunately no. It gives three options: ounces, grams, or pounds and ounces. It does resolve the ounces to 1/100's of an ounce when in the ounce mode, and 1/10th of an ounce in the pound/ounce mode. It is extremely sensitive and repeatability is almost always perfect. I have compared it to known weights and found it to be extremely accurate.

I only use the scale on the metric base. But I checked with an item of 15 gramms (which ist equivalant to 1/2 oz) and the weight was correct.

This scale does read grams to two decimal places. I weighed my silver jewelry and got results like: 3.37 and 18.02 grams. I hope that this helps.

It measures in grams or ounces...a kilogram is 1000 grams so it measures up to 5000 grams or 5 kilogram equivalent. It also measures up to 175 ounces or 11 pounds equivalent. You have to know to convert the grams to kilogram but it is easy ...1000 grams per kilogram. Hope this helps...it's a great and inexpensive scale. I use it all the time.

I just checked the measuring options on my scale. Yes, it does have the ability to measure ml as well as pounds, ounces, and grams. I would highly recommend this scale!

My experience is that it is accurate with very small masses such as fractions of an ounce or in a low number of grams. For such small masses or volumes I put a small Dixie cup on the scale (which typically weighs about 3 grams) and then tare the scale and then add in the powder or whatever I need to weigh. I typically use grams, but the scale can show weights in tenths or hundredths of an ounce.
