I haven't used this yet, but I carry a travel scale to avoid overweight luggage charges and it takes up a lot of room in my carry on and it only does one thing. This does two things, both of which I need. I think it will be great.More > < Less

Great product bought one for me and one for my daughter in law

I travel with lots of heavy gear. The idea of this unit was great for the battery backup. But the unit does not appear to lock the weight in so that one can view after releasing the weight. Because I am short I often have to lift the scale out of view for unusual size equipment or heavy bags, but this scale does not lock the weight in so one could release and view. Great idea and may work for others, but not me! Guess I have to go back to my old luggage scale.More > < Less
