Like thermometers, kitchen scales are an essential cooking tool. You have a choice between the more accurate digital models, or analog scales which don’t run out of batteries just when you need them. I have a glass-slab Salter scale, and it has sat in a cupboard for at least five years, awaiting a new pair of CR2032s to power it.
So I’m interested in this folding scale, which not only runs on AAA batteries which can easily be swiped from the remote control, it also folds up into a tiny cylinder which could be stowed in the back of a kitchen drawer for decades without getting in the way.
The cross (or cylinder) shaped scale is made from stainless steel with a strategic plastic rubber coating, and comes with its own cage and hanger. It’ll only weigh up to 3kg or 6.6 lbs, and the readout is on a tiny LCD screen, but that doesn’t matter — it’s not like you’ll use it more than once anyway. £34 ($55).
