can the scale be 3 to 7 lbs off

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.

any scale can be at sometime. Have you been stepping on it so it registers some weight, then stepping off and waiting until it zeroes? That was my original mistake...not doing this. Was about to toss it, but now it works fine and is consistent

Yes I believe so. But honesty the scale isn't as easy as it claims to be! I had to keep reseting the scale everytime I used it. Plus the App doesn't sinc up well until the 2nd or 3rd time. Either way.. Good luck!

Yes, but the scale loses its setting COnstantly. You have to fiddle with the adjuster back and forth EVERY TIME. Get another scale. This one sucks!!!

Yes. The scale display can be set to either Metric or English Standard for weight, and the body electrochemical analysis will report ineither modes as well.

yes. according to this scale, nothing in the known universe weighs more than 3 lbs.

Unfortunately, I do not have the answer. I have only had the scale for 3 or 4 months and have not needed to reset it yet. If I can find my instruction book, I will look in there and will try to find the answer for you.

It can but i found it might not be accurate....it seems to be off a few ounces per pound...you small weights will not be accurate

There's no way. It's supposed to be auto calibrated. Mine was always off by 20 to 30 pounds. Never the same amount, though. Worst scale ever.

Good question! That is confusing! I haven't used this feature; initially I thought the "7, 14, 12 & 28" may be time settings based on the weights, but it doesn't make sense that 3.5oz needs 7 minutes while 2.5 lbs (40 oz - more that ten times the weight) would need 28 minutes. I checked the manual (which I'm sure you already did) and it didn't elaborate any further. A call or e-mail to Customer Service might help: Phone: (920) 347-9122, e-mail: nostalgiaelectrics.com

NO. The scale likes to have a home, once it is there it will be OK, now the scale did not cost $1500.00. It may be a few pounds off. Don't ask it to do wonders. It looks good and everyone who sees it will use it, but the the scale never lies. I have little nephews and they love to use it. they say I am 43.6 lbs. we should be so lucky.

Yes I think that 3 to 7 is ok - can't remember the weight limit. We gave it to our 2 year old granddaughter and she was sort of afraid of the sudden movement when she pressed the "go" button. She is 3 now and really likes it.

I don't have a scale handy, but it is light weight. It also quit working after just a few uses 8-(

I don't have a scale but it feels very light, feels like 2 or 3 pounds to be honest, so I imagine something closer to 7.5

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.

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

yes. This scale display in kilograms and in pounds. There is a switch on a back for it.
