We read the best reviews of the Escali Primo food scale at Amazon.com, where it has accumulated more than 350 user reviews. We read a lengthy review of this scale at AssociatedContent.com, but unfortunately, the reviewer's credentials are unclear. This scale has not been included in professional reviews.

Owners agree that the Escali Primo Multifunctional Scale is the best value in digital kitchen scales. The Escali Primo is compact and easy to store in a cupboard. Reviews say that this scale is accurate and easy to use. It displays weights in decimals -- the measurement professionals prefer -- rather than fractions. If you are looking for the very best kitchen scale on the market, however, the OXO Good Grips Food Scale with Pull-Out Display (*est. $50) is reviewers' runaway favorite. Its unique readout can't be overshadowed by a large bowl or platter, and the backlit display is easier to read.
