Is the little black scoop-looking thing on the scale removable?

The black weighing pad should not be removed. I haven't tried because it would probably ruin the sensor.

Yep. The readout is placed so it can easily be read. THere's also a function that freezes the readout so you can weigh the box, remove it, and then see the weight. You could do a loit worse than this scale. Best, JRD

I think they've updated the design now. Mine has a much larger weighing platform, as shown in the current photo. It also came with the weighing tray as well. This is much more useful in my opinion. An excellent update over what is shown in some of the older reviews and videos. That older design would be kind of a pain to use.

Right on both counts, Connie. This scale does have a TARE button as well as a measuring tape which is a pull-out.

Yes, the insert is removable. It doesn't weigh anymore than other slow cooker inserts. This is the best slow cooker I have owned.

It's removable. It's held in place by 2 magnets that are relatively strong to keep it stable but also allows for removal.

Yes it does. I just put a can with a spoon in it on the scale, zeroed it out, and then removed the spoon. The scale showed the weight of the spoon in a negative number with a minus sign. What a great idea, I will surely use this technique!

It's pretty easy to remove. It just unsnaps from a point on each side. Honestly, I never need to take the top off. The opening is big enough for me to get in and scoop.

Okay. Well I don't see anything stamped on the underside about the scale. Sorry I could not be of more help. (Ginette)

Yes the weights are removable. You can place them in different slots and also remove them to launder the vest.

I actually have not tried to remove it. I believe it is supposed to be removable.

No it does not. As soon as you remove the box or whatever you're weighing the scale resets back to 0.

Just use a soft damp cloth and wipe it. There is information in the printed matter to tell you just about everything you need to know. I love this scale.

Yes..its removable; you just have to lift it from its base..not very heavy and its very easy to clean and replace.

Yes, you can remove the bowl without losing your tare (zero) setting as long as you don't turn off the scale or let the auto-off timeout elapse.

No, it is not removable, at least not from my perspective. There are no screws or mounting points, tabs, etc. There is a very tight space of a couple of millimeters between the platform and the base. The best part I've found is that if you use the plastic case as a tray, whatever you measure will not ever have a chance to get into the sides and cause the need for a cleaning under the platform. I've had mine for several weeks now and it still looks brand new despite it measuring several pounds of coffee by now.

Nope. I didn't when I first used the scale, but ultimately got one and was very happy with it. Good luck!
