Why does this show 11.17 when I weigh my son instead of 12 lbs? The ounces go up so far and I don't know why.

The units are in pounds, not pounds & ounces. You mistakenly are reading it as 11 pounds and 17 ounces , when it is 11.17 pounds. If you convert pounds to ounces you'd see 11.17 pounds is 11 pounds and 2.72 ounces

Unfortunately not, it only displays decimal places. You would just have to do the math to convert it. Ex. 16 oz == 1 lb so 0.8 lbs x 16 oz = 12.8 oz

My son has always been big for his age. We never had issue and recently passed it along to a friend as it was a lot of fun for M. It's definately sturdy, but don't remember exactly how much he weighed. Sorry

Good question! I never really tried anything lower than an ounce, but I wanted to help you out so I took out the scale and put just a piece of paper on it and it did show .1 oz. I love this scale and it is very accurate. Matches the post office scale. Highly recommend it!

I don't know what is supposed to be; but, I weight 135 lbs. and my son weighs 29 lbs. and I've slept in the bed with my son a number of nights.

We have 17.2 and a little over 12 oz. Can anyone confirm the actual weight?

Mine is not calibrated and is way off. They expect me to find a 5 lb. weight somewhere in order to calibrate the item.

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.

Someone entered it wrong into the Amazon system. If you notice one is 14oz with no pace between 14 and oz and the other is 14 oz with a space. Since there are different sellers I bet some of them entered it differently than others.

The one I ordered was supposed to be a 19oz, but I emailed the seller before shipping and asked if they had an 18oz they could send me instead. They did, and they didn't charge any extra to change the weight.

I agree with the previous answer. I'm not sure where the 9 pounds came from. There is no way this item weighs 9 pounds; 6 ounces seems more reasonable.

Well, I just tried to weigh my 11 pound dog on it and it didn't register. So I wouldn't count on it weighing your grams and ounces! However, it did weigh accurately compared to our Doctors scale for humans.

It starts going into pounds after a point, but it does so in a "pounds and ounces" format rather than a decimal. So for example, if I put a 1.5 pound item on it, it will show up as 1 pound 8 ounces on the scale. From there it should be easy to do what you're trying to do, simply multiply the pound figure by 16 and add to the ounces, so in this case it would be 16 plus 8 = 24 ounces.

I feel like you will have a problem with height before weight. My son used it until right before a year. Then he was too tall and it wouldn't go any higher.

When the weight exceeds 16 ounces then it will be displayed as pounds and ounces. For example, 17.5 oz. will be displayed as 1 lbs., 1.5 oz.

It purports to read out in hundredths of a pound, but I can tell you that when you put less than a pound on the scale it doesn't register at all. I was trying to measure something I knew to weigh several ounces, and it still read "0.00". That leads me to conclude that any numbers to the right of the decimal on this scale really aren't reliable, because it simply is not that precise.

Could be a mistake, I guess. I bought the 3.4 oz, normal is 1.7 oz, 2.5 oz, 3.4 oz, 4.0 oz
