My wife has told me the scale Weighs in pounds. Red button on the front of scale allows you to switch from pounds to kilograms or the reverse.

Sorry, but at the end I did not buy that scale, I bought one from another seller.Guess who makes them?: ChinaThe way I found out is to call the seller and ask him a tricky question; like: what about if scale accuracy is not what scale manual states? He will most likely state he will contact the mfr: Bingo!( For your information if the manual says scale has an accuracy of +/- 0.2 pounds of full scale reading, this means for example if you weigh yourself and scale reads 110 pounds +/- 0.2 pounds for a total of 109.8 pounds or 110.2 pounds.So Accuracy is OK. If the deviation is greater, scale accuracy is bad) Sorry, but at the end I did not buy that scale, I bought one from another seller.Guess who makes them?: ChinaThe way I found out is to call the seller and ask him a tricky question; like: what about if scale accuracy is not what scale manual states?

I purchased this scale for my mother because of her health issues. I know it weighs in pounds and my recollection is that it can be set up to weigh in kilograms also with a switch on the bottom of the scale. If the question is how heavy is the scale?, it is fairly lightweight and I would say no more than 2 to 3 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.

Yes. The owner's manual shows pictures with a "kg" on the display, but I didn't see specifics on how to do that. I suspect it is a choice somewhere in the setup sequence for each user.

There is a small "button" on the back that is marked kg/lb/set. Push the button to set desired unit displayed.

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

There is a button on the bottom of the scale towards the front. Just push it until you get the desired unit if measurement. Hope this helps :)

You can't, that scale is a piece of junk, I can weigh myself and reset the scale several times and it gives me a 5lbs range, totally unreliable

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.

just press the red button top right that says kg/lb..... press it twice to get to kilogram and once again to change to lbs.

There is a small know like thing next to the battery. If you switch it the scale should be updated to KG.

You turn the button on/ off, have it on then you choose press Unit for gram or press again for kg,press again for OZ, wait until the screen appear all 0.00 before you place your item on the scale,other wise it wouldn't work. This scale weight up to 5 kg. Check battery once a while.

What do you mean by updating? Did you mean updating the shipping rates? The scale weighs the item but it does not give an actual shipping cost. You would need to enter the weight online at the USPS website to find the shipping rate. I really like having a scale like this to weigh my items.

Hi Kristi I am using this scale and it does measure in Kilograms There is a little procedure to turn on the Kg mode, and if you do it right, it does give metric scale readings !Raghunandan Joshi

Yes, but you need to do a tricky button-pushing tap dance just after turning it on. I'm still not getting consistent at changing from pounds to kilos. If you can remember that 1 kilo = 2.2 pounds, it's not too annoying to do the math after weighing. I still think these units are a fantastic bargain; just the thing for hand held portable use in an engineering lab.
