I purchased this to weigh my bikes because it's a LOT cheaper than a bike scale. Also great for weighing luggage. No complaints, especially for less than $10.

I thought I lost my first Dr. Meter, so I bought two more, just in case I progress further in my forgetfulness and dissipate in my mental acuity, and lose one down the road. It turned out that my first scale was where it was stored: right in my tackle bag. Duh. I now have three!I chose Dr. Meter again, because I liked its utility and solid build-quality. Given the $10 a piece price, I could not be more satisfied.The hook was a little smaller for large catfish (30 inchers) to efficiently hook into the gill, but I managed to measure them (Ouch for the catfish!). Then I tied a loop with a parachute cord, and I loop it into the mouth, and hook it to measure. Hope it hurts less!The chain link that holds the hook is welded, so it will not unbend and lose a fish. The handle is solidly built, and it will not fail, while lifting up heavy weights. It appears the ounce unit goes by 0.5 and whole ounce. Pound unit in 0.1 pound increment, and the Kg unit to the thousandth below the whole number, as in 2.456 Kg.As for the accuracy, I cannot vouch for it, for I do not have the certified weight to measure the scale's accuracy. But I think the accuracy of Dr. Scale is more than adequate for the the tasks involving household weights and fish. I measured the weight plates, but it is also possible that the weight plates themselves are not very accurately manufactured. I would say, Dr. Meter scale performs within limits of everyday tasks very well. It comes with a self-retracting, built-in 100 centimeter measuring steel tape. This is a very good product to have around.As for the batteries that came with it, I think they last reasonably long. I have not replaced the original yet. I plan to replace them, when the time comes, with the batteries with known brand name. If you are looking for a fish scale, I would not hesitate to recommend Dr. Meter.

I love this little scale. It is so easy and simple to operate. Before, I had one of those tiny scales with the tinier than tiny hook that is so difficult to get into the fish's gills. It operates on a spring and the pounds are almost impossible to read. You have to just estimate the weight (almost 2 pounds, or just a little over 3 pounds, for example). No more of that, with this charming beauty! Now I know the accurate weight immediately, to the ounce, or to the tenth of a pound. I should have upgraded a long time ago. The retractable handle is also a blessing, allowing the scale to take up less space in my tackle box. The only reason I gave this scale 4 stars instead of 5 is that it comes with batteries included, but they were deader than a mackerel, so I had to provide my own anyway.

I didn’t have a fish scale but the main reason I bought this was to make a crude torque wrench. Much cheaper than buying an expensive torque wrench I would only use once or twice a year. The handle slides down and the hook snaps to the back so it doesn’t take much room in a tackle box. I don’t really care for the memory feature. To torque a lug nut I slipped a 36” pipe over the handle of my ratchet and hocked the scale to the opposite end. A quick calculation and I knew how much force I needed to get the proper torque.

I used this earlier this summer and it couldn't have been more accurate. The weight of my bags were exactly as the airport scales. I gave it to a friend who needed their bags checked before going on an international trip. They were equally happy about the accuracy of the scale. I will most definitely recommend this scale

I've used it s couple of weeks now and it works great. It's a great value and good tool in the tackle box. I like the easy to read screen the battery seems to be long lasting, the scales are good quality and durable. Thank you they are exactly what I wanted

Tried to weigh grass seed in a bucket, was able to “tare” the bucket; but scale would lock in on the weight of the bucket. Had to fiddle with way too much to weigh the grass seed in the bucket.Edit: customer service has been emailing me to refund my money in an attempt to make it right. I did not request any refund nor did I take the seller up on the offer but I appreciate the offer. I would say that the product works great as a fish scale or eve as a luggage scale as it was intended. The functionality was never the problem and it worked every time I went to use it. I am changing my review from 3 stars to 5 stars for the follow up from customer service. If you are having issues with the product contact them and they will help you.

Mon truc à moi n'est pas la pêche mais le vélo, avec le souci d'optimiser le poids de ce que j'embarque en virée. A la recherche d'un pèse-bagages, j'ai redécouvert le mot "peson" et j'ai trouvé que les outils pour pêcheurs étaient bien plus intéressants que les gadgets pour voyageurs : plus solides, plus précis, plus économiques/écologiques même (des accus AAA c'est mieux que des piles bouton). Ce modèle-ci, spécialement bien placé, me semble parfait aux premiers essais !
