Salter Digital Luggage Scale, 40 Kg

I travel around a lot and it is always worrying when you are not sure if your suitcase is within the strict weight limits for the airlines. I have always used our digital bathroom scales which seem to be pretty accurate but they are no use on the flight back. I initially bought another make of luggage scales which seemed to be a bargain but when I tried to use them they were useless. I tried weighing my suitcase which was about 20kg but the reading on the scales would not settle to a reading that would lock on no matter how long I held the case. I sent them back and got the Salter Luggage Scale from Amazon and they are ideal, the reading settles down quickly and they are comfortable to hold. They may look heavy but they are made from a lightweight plastic so you can take them with you for the flight back. I found them accurate compared to my bathroom scales but beware, it seems that a lot of airport checking scales are not accurate so leave your luggage a kilo or two lighter unless you want an argument at the check in desk.

It’s good quality and good size good price

Good

Pros: Compact design. Lightweight and very comfortable to hold, even with heavy luggage. Easy to read scale can be viewed from above, but anyway the reading is held for one minute or can be reset at any time. I've checked its readings over the range: accuracy is very good. The built-in webbing strap is well designed to quickly clip around any shape of luggage handle. Battery compartment very accessible. Battery can be replaced quickly without a screwdriver. Cons: Can't think of any ! except that the scale reading could do with a second or two additional delay time to allow weight to settle. It's a bit over-enthusiastic to hold its reading, so I would recommend taking a few additional reset readings to fully confirm your luggage weight. Often the first one is indicated as too light. Make sure that there is no tension on the weighing strap when resetting though, or you will get a false reading. You soon get used to its quirks. After all, it's going to save you a lot of money in overweight penalty fees. Overall: Excellent value for money, easy to use and accurate. Wouldn't be without it. A MUST to take with you, to avoid overweight bags on the return trip.

Compact, easy to use and appears very accurate

Easy to use, accurate, no issues

Rubbish it broke after the second case I was weighing. I later learnt the the second case was only 14kg - not impressed. Attempted to return but it wasn’t straight forward so it’s in the bin and I’m out of money!

Brilliant

الجهاز جودته عالية جدا وخامات محترمة وله شهادة ضمان خمس سنوات حقيقي شكرا للبائع المحترم

Bueno yo por lo que lo he devuelto es porque para sacar la pila tienes que andar con un destornillador pequeño para soltar no del todo un tornillito y yo la verdad el que tenía antes que es la misma marca se metía y sacaba directamente tirando con la uña, pero el que tenía me ha durado un montón de años

fonctionne parfaitement bien !

Articolo affidabile nel peso arrivato con i tempi stabiliti

Plus besoin de mettre une balance par terre pour peser .....super pratique
