My Instagram

The cover of this cookbook looks really great and I thought that there would be more pictures of the cooked recipes in the book. There's not. A cookbook that lacks images is not helpful if you ask me. I tried out a few of the recipes and they were pretty good but very bland. But as a weight loss cookbook I kind of expected that.

My Experience

My Instagram

First let me mention that according to Amazon the Smart Weigh scale comes with a 10 year warranty. How awesome!

This scale is amazingly small but that means nothing for how well it works! I sell a lot of items online such as books and jewelry and this scale has been so helpful! I can save so much money on packaging with this scale and it's extremely accurate.

The scale has many functions. I like the hold function because it freezes the display when I am weighing something that is large and covers the display. The scale does max out at 2kg (4.4 pounds), so placing any object heavier than that could damage it beyond repair (not covered by the warranty most likely).
 
The one thing I would change about this scale given the chance is the buttons. They have a nice click to them and they all work well but they are also all chrome and the lettering is printed as an indent into the button. Depending on the lighting in the room, it's hard to tell which button is which.
