This is a cool scale, with a retro/antique look. I don't think it looks cheap. It is actually a lot larger than I thought it would be, though, so make sure you have room on your counter. Removable tray is nice because you can put wet messy items directly on the scale and then just rinse off. You can adjust the calibration manually to zero, if you want to use another type of dish on the scale. I'm happy with my purchase.

Overall I like the look and performance of the scale. The bowl is large and it easy to read all measured weights. The only complaint is the cheesy plastic-plexi-glass face and the stainless steel constuction is somewhat light weight. I would pay more for a heavier construction. The scale is made in China.

Pelouze® you LOSE: The Polder® is a G.O.R.G.E.O.U.S. 11-LB. SCALE with a big 'n beautiful face that for once you can actually read without a magnifying glass!! When I read others' comments about the metal being "light weight" I about gagged what, you want to use it for armored transport? A suspension bridge perhaps? What are you weighing, a tuna? Getouttahere!! This contender is solid state and it enters the ring at about the weight of what a double pack of ground beef (+ one more slab) would be, if that's any help. `Heavy' is a term of art, but the one thing this scale is _not_ is light or puny. It's adjustable, with a lovely removable stainless steel bowl for which its 4 positioning prongs actually help to "grip" parcels when you're not using the bowl. The prongs make it thoughtfully adaptable to using other bowls, too.

I bought it for use in my business. That's right. I often have to weigh parcels exceeding 5 lbs., and I'm just sick of Pelouze® ripping off the business community with their midget, hard-to-read, overpriced scales with a weighing surface the size of a playing card. And how brilliant for Polder® to make it 11 lbs. instead of 10! Most delivery pricing has a cut-off at exactly 10 lbs., so this way you can tell when you're _over_ 10 lbs., and by how much. I bought mine on a Gold Box offer and my only regret is that I didn't buy two so I could have a second one for my kitchen. Weigh 2 go Amazon[.com]!

Honest reviews on Polder 11-Pound Stainless-Steel Kitchen Scale

My wife and I have a market garden and use this scale to weigh out equal portions of produce as we prepare for the farmers' market. It gets alot of hard use, and has always been dependable even with freshly washed vegetables. We just ordered another to help make our operation more efficient. We have also used the scale to weigh items we sell on Ebay and have always been able to give accurate Priority Mail quotes to the high bidders.

I have no complaints at all about this scale. Its size is perfect-just right to fit on the corner of my counter. It is easy to zero out and the bowl is large enough for most of my kitchen needs. I use it frequently for ebay shipping and it's very accurate.

One of the other reviewers mentioned that it's lightweight-this is true and I can see why they would have an issue with it if they're going for that retro feel, it looks like it would be heavier than it is. However, I think making it actually heavier would be more of an inconvenience than anything else, since its current design is nicely portable.

All in all, two thumbs up.
