Just received scale. Box says FOUR modes (not six) and I cannot get it to weigh in newtons. Is this a newer model that no longer has newtons?

I think you have a different model. the boxes I have shows 6 modes and if you can to the Newton mode just by pushing the mode button and choosing the the unit or mode you want. make sure you have a US-BENCHTOP-PRO model

I have used my scale often and like it. It has 6 modes, including Newtons. Only says "Bench top-Pro" for model.

I bought my scale on October 21, 2012. My scale has these 6 modes: g, oz, gn, ozt, dwt and N. It sounds like either the product changed or you got the wrong thing shipped to you.

Just bought one of these scales (January, 2014). As Alicia notes, the current model does *not* support all 6 advertised modes. Missing are Newtons and grains. The instruction sheet now lists only four measurement modes: g, oz, ozt, and dwt. When you turn the scale on, there are many other measurement modes listed including Newtons, grains, carats, and pounds. The scale only allows usage of four of them.

I tried to weight it on my digital scale and it didn't work. Weighed my self with and without it and it was 2.2 lbs.

Mine does the same...intermittently. I don't know why. I have ascertained that it is NOT BROKEN. Just stuck. I keep tapping my foot lightly in the center of the scale until it shows 3 zeros. 00.0 Then I am able to weigh myself and get a proper reading. I weigh myself twice to be certain. Good luck. It is moody but, A great scale in general.

I did some investigating with my scale - it doesn't convert to lbs once it's over 16 oz, BUT you can hit the "unit" button while the item is still on the scale, and it'll convert to lbs.

I'm having problems with that.. it just toggles between Lbs and KGs. How did you get it to change the numbers?

Mine is always 4 pounds off and I don't know how to fix it. It zeros itself each time I use it , but then is 4 pounds off one way or the other. I think it is just a bad scale. I am going to get a different scale from a different company. Sorry I couldn't help.

The manual states that the scale can display "Pounds, Kilograms and Stones". There is a button located under the scale that you press to select the choices. I haven't used the button since I use pounds, which is the default. Hope this helps.

Hello.......It is a very nice scale, however, the minimum scale is .2 lb........Example: .2 - .4 - .6 - .8 - 1lb - 1.2 etc. etc. Hope that helps! Neil

Mine stays on Lbs. and will not switch to KG. Ok by me. I can't get it to display KG. Tried changing batteries and everything I could think of. Sorry

I do not have a scale but it is heavy. I used it on my 87-year-old father. He wouldn't have been able to handle it with the weight and his inability to use his shoulders at this point. He has become frail and I'm afraid the vibration at this point would hurt him, so I no longer use it on him. Great for a younger person though who can handle it on their own.

You have to check the instructions that came with your type of scale. You may also call their service dept and they might help you. Check on line if you do not have the instructions. Good luck.

I suppose it' possible that you have a damaged or faulty scale, but make sure you have it placed on a firm, hard, level surface before using it. I have calibrated my scale with two of my doctors, both of whom have similar, but larger electronic scales & both matched perfectly with mine. However, another, old fashion "weighted" scale was "light" by several pounds.

There is a simple slide switch on the top underside of the scale that changes the settings from kgs to lbs & vice versa. Hopes this info answers your question.

On mine, I can put the weight on and then tap the on/off//tare function on the left. The scale beeps and resets to zero after a slight lag. During that lag, the scale looks like it isn't responding, then it resets.

This morning I stepped on it and it told me my weight. (down six pounds) I understand your confusion, some scales do require a "tap" This one does not. I will check tomorrow to be sure.

I had the same issue. I purchased the weights to properly calibrate but still nothing. In my honest opinion, this scale is trash. Sorry
