If I need to weigh a 20"x20" box, would this scale work for that?

I dont see why not. I weigh large envelopes that are 15 x 10 1/2". The only problem would be that you wouldnt be able to see the weight on the scale because the box may overhang. I find it to be accurate and great for the price.

It might, but it would depend on the length and thickness, which would determine the weight.

I use mine for FedEx and USPS shipping and checked against the scale provided by Stamps.com and the weights matched each time I checked items.

It has four little rubber feet so as long as they all touch it should work fine. I wanted a scale that would work on carpet and this one has no moving parts for about one inch off the floor so it does just fine on carpet. If the floor is especially rough as in, say, rustic tile, then I'd use a pad or flat board under it to make sure all the feet touch. The scale base is pretty ridgid but somewhere up around 250/300 pounds you might be able to get it to flex a little. Good choice for odd circumstances tho----

This scale only goes to 44 lbs. I doubt this is what your looking for. I use this to measure the weight of new bicycles.

I tried weighing my bag with about 20 lbs of stuff last night, and it wouldn't register on the scale. So, I have a feeling there's a minimum that it will read. I'm not sure it'll be the best choice for weighing your luggage.

No this scale is too small for packages. Also regardless of the scale you decide to buy make sure you buy the tools for calibration such as the weight units

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

What I do to get an accurate weight I put the box on top, read the result and then I take it off, I put the scale in "0" again and put the box on top again just to double check if it's the same weight. I believe is pretty accurate because I use UPS and is always correct on the weight. The biggest box I have weighted is 52.50 lb ...I hope this answers your question

Don't know if this will help in your case, but the batteries that came with my scale were so weak that the scale was inoperable.

Yes it will, easily and accurately. It measures anything up to 11 lbs. You can change the mode to read in pounds, ounces, grams, etc.

I bought this as a child's desk chair. The scale is smaller than a full size desk chair too. I didn't look at the specs but given what I recognize about, I would think so. If it helps, I'm 170-180 and have no problems on it.

Yes definitely. My niece weighs 20 pounds and it was fine. Not sure how much weight it could hold. I am glad I got it cause it is almost exactly the same as the doctors and I can keep track of my sons weight to make sure he is growing. I would recommend this scales.

Yes, I weigh alot and have had this little scale for quite awhile. Use a cup or bowl and tare it out. Works great!

I attempted to weigh it on my scales and it does not register, so must be less than one pound. I do not find it to be heavy enough to hinder using it.

I've never tried it, but have you checked with the USPS to see if they have any calibration weights on site? I'm sure their scales, like all scales, have to be calibrated regularly. You could take it to them and see what they say. I live in a rural area and the local branch is never very busy, so I'm sure they would help me. A busier location may not be as helpful.

Say I used it to weigh a box. Does it hold the time long enough so I can read it?
