Tech specs
- Name: Amazon Basics Digital Postal Scale
- Capacity: 660 lb (300 kg)
- Readability: 0.11 lb 50 g 2 ounce in 0.1 ounce increments

Why it’s worth it
The scale combines a heavy duty platform with a portable design so you can move it where shipping prep happens. The large backlit LCD reduces strain when reading weights from up to 2 meters away, and the tare function simplifies net weight calculations for boxed items. It accepts AAA batteries or an AC adapter and stays on when plugged in, which helps during longer packing sessions. Note that data cannot be transferred via USB according to the manufacturer, and there is a 5 minute auto shutoff when running on batteries which helps preserve power.
Usage tips
Place the scale on a flat, steady surface to get consistent readings, and use the tare feature when weighing items inside containers or padded envelopes. For repeated shipments plug the adapter in to avoid auto shutoff and to keep the display active. Calibrate routinely if you move the scale between environments. Small parcels register accurately thanks to the 1 ounce readability, while the aluminum anti-skid platform keeps boxes from sliding during weighing. Use the kg or oz setting when preparing international shipments to match carrier requirements. The design is straightforward so setup takes only moments and daily use is intuitive.
