Breville Little Genius BSK500

A very good looking electronic kitchen scale. I bought it as a gift to my sister. It works very well & accurate. Using the regular AAA batteries is a good idea. Personally I find the temperature-testing function is unnecessary & not really practical. Of course by having this function, it boosts up the cost as well. I like this machine because I am a Breville fan & this is the latest model. This is an excellent scale but way too pricey. The only reason I bought it is because I don't want to buy an older model as a gift. That is all. If its price is not an issue to you, then this scale surely is a great choice and a nice product to have :)

We've had one for many years (can't remember how long, purchased date is a guess) and have been relying on it. It's been very reliable and gives us the familiar beep every time we turn it on. There's a few features on it including ambient temperature which is interesting but we don't really use. Never tried the temperature probe however.

Of late, it started to play up a bit, and after changing the battery, it's still a bit temperamental. Not sure if we could count on it as much as we used to, which is a shame. Would I buy another? Can't say. The price as of September 2016 is $80+ on special, otherwise hovering around $100. Not sure if this could be repaired.
