Surprisingly great; functions really well and nice price was around $20
I can think of little negative to say, so if you're on the fence do try this scale! USB charging port matches all my other devices so I can just use those USB-C wall blocks. Charges medium-fast, lasts super long. Scale not always certainly within correct 0.1g measurement but MUCH better coffee produced than when I only knew +/-1.0g. Small and travel ready. Lightweight. Love the timer feature. Yes you can--and I did--mute the sounds haha. If this lasts for a few years, I am going to be a changed person--at least in the kitchen in the morning while making coffee.

Solid build quality, measuring coffee makes a better cup or shot.
This is my 1st coffee scale. I used to just measure by the scoop and eyeball the water level on my V60 pour overs. My coffee was pretty good. Then I got this scale to get more accurate and WOW, my pour overs are better and I even use less beans and save money.For MY pour overs, I measure 30 grams of whole beans, grind them and pour 440 grams of water using shorter pours at specific gram weights and this scale helps me do that.It's great that it has a battery in it and can charge with USB every couple of weeks with daily use. The led timer in red and the weight in white led is easy to see and bright enough. It is very accurate and changes easily from grams to ounces, pounds, ml and fluid ounces.Works great for spices too when cooking or baking and I need very small grams of salt or yeast and my larger scale is not very accurate on lighter or small weights.It is 1.1" tall so it will not fit under my Gaggia Classic Evo espresso machine unless I remove the drip tray, but you might have a tall espresso machine and use a non-spouted portafilter and so the 1.1" tall scale might easily fit under your espresso unit to measure as you pour.

I like this scale!
Nice scale. Use it with the Clever Dripper. Seems accurate and is fast enough for coffee use. The timer is a nice feature, as is the removable rubber scale cover for cleaning off the inevitable drips. USB-C rechargeable battery is great and lasts over a month with once a day use. Excellent value for the money!

Nice scale for the price, makes getting perfect espresso dosing and ratios easy
Scale is quick to power on and off, and quick to tare. I have observed very consistent and repeatable measurements from this scale.The timer is nice and works as advertised although I do not personally use this function.The face buttons are a little sensitive. They are all touch buttons which is a pro because they are easy to keep clean and sanitary, but a con because they can be activated inadvertentlyIt would be a 5 star product if it was a little smaller. It is a bit deep and hangs off of my drip tray a bit, although no where near enough where it would become unstable. It would also be nice if it was a bit thinner. But that is asking a lot for a 20 dollar espresso scale.All in all it works as advertised and I would recommend it.

Good quality
Works great for measuring morning coffee beans accurately. I charged it up initially and haven't needed to recharge yet after a number of months of use. Surface mat over the scale comes off for easy cleaning. Starts up quickly and is ready to weigh in a few seconds.

Easy to use, consistent and repeatable results.
This scale feels high quality. It's surprisingly heavy in a good way. I don't mean it's actually heavy, but it feels solid and weighty for its size. More importantly than that, it works really well. It has good repeatability. That is to say, if I way something that's 13.1 grams and remove it from the scale, it weighs the same 13.1 grams when I put it back on the scale. That's important to me. The timer function works well and beeps as each minute passes. The touch controls are responsive and work well. I have zero complaints and I'm really glad I bought this scale.

Good versatile kitchen scale
Nice kitchen scale, easy to switch from grams for espresso to ounces, pounds, or whatever you want. Automatically shuts off. The rubber cover is good to have as my espresso sometimes sprays when I pull a shot. Having the USB charging is handy, and it re-charges quickly. I also use it (set to ounces) when I'm going to freeze something in sealed bags. The TARE function works well to weigh things and not include the weight of the container.

Good scale for money
Quality scale, not 0.1 gram accurate in practice but it’s adequate for espresso, responsive touch controls work as advertised. Good value for the money. Haven’t noticed any battery life issues. It’s not too heavy, had a bright readable display, and slim enough to fit under my trip tray. Seems pretty durable as well.
