It is a total joy to have a truly reliable scale so I can use weight instead of volume measurements for my baking as it is more accurate, particularly for flour, as well as being faster and neater. You can Google "convert (ingredient of choice) to ounces" to get volume-to-weight conversion charts for ingredients for all your recipes. The gram option makes following European recipes where quantities are often indicated in weight instead of volume a breeze.
The scale works perfectly and is intuitive enough to use without reading the directions. It is accurate compared to the postal scale at my post office. Some reviewers of the larger scale mentioned inconsistent readings when weighing the same item at different times. The scale I have shows no signs of this. I checked with both very light and heavy items placing them in the center and towards the edges of the platform. All readouts were consistent with all items even when they were not centered on the scale. The scale does have a smidge of a delay when adding ingredients but I found this easy to handle by using a light hand when I was getting close to adding the weight I needed.
The readout only pulls out three inches although it retracts to two inches unless you hold on to the readout. However, the two inches is more than enough to prevent shadowing for most anything one would want to weigh under five pounds including using a large dinner plate. The LCD readout is large enough that even the fractions are easy to read although this scale does not have the backlighting option that the larger model has. In using the scale I haven't felt the need for any backlighting but someone who has a particularly dark kitchen might feel differently.
Unlike the larger model the platform on this scale is not removable for cleaning. The platform is easy to clean but that might be a feature that some would find important. Also, this model does not display pounds in decimals which was a criticism that was brought up in reviews of the larger model.
My old scale that I never trusted an inch is now in the Goodwill pile. This is a product I would readily recommend highly to family and friends.
It works great as a scale. I started using it for help staying on a diet, now I just use it daily to measure ingredients for recipes. The pull-out display is a very useful feature, it lets me see the weight of an item even if it's on a larger plate or bowl. Batteries last a long time, and are easy to replace. It's easy to wipe clean, but can't be submerged. It takes six minutes to turn itself off if not in use, that's plenty of time even for me. (I'm slow.) Overall, I recommend this model.

I put a plate on it and set to zero and add my food.
