Taylor has been making precision products for kitchen measurement for over 150 years, using only the highest quality components for accurate weighing. A slim profile with a glass platform makes this Taylor Kitchen Scale an attractive addition to any kitchen. The glass platform is back painted in glossy black, so the platform remains stain and odor resistant. Touch control buttons make for an easy to clean surface. LCD readout is large and easy to read. Measure precisely up to 11 lb/5 kg in increments of 0.1oz/0.001kg. The add and weigh tare feature allows multiple ingredients to be weighed in one container. The Taylor food scale is battery operated with an auto shut off feature.
