RENPHO Food Scale with Nutritional Calculator, Digital Kitchen Scale for Weight Loss, Smart Food Weight Scale with App for Macro Keto Calorie Cooking, Grams and Ounces, White, 11lb/5kg

Pros: Accurate Measurements Easy Setup Clean, unobtrusive industrial design BT connectivity with good nutritional detail Cons: Not integrated with common Nutrition apps Requires online account and possible personal info exposure The Details: I recently purchased the RENPHO Digital Food Scale in order to compare it with my existing food scale, a Mackie C19. As a daily user of the RENPHO Bluetooth Body Fat Scale, I was curious if I would similarly like my experience with their nutrition scale The scale came in an easy to open package and was clean and orderly upon opening. The startup procedure was typical for this type of consumer device (pull battery isolation tab) and it was ready to go. On power on, i found it had a typical LCD screen with white backlight, and 2 buttons, one for Units and one for Power and Tare. Unit steps you through lb:oz, fl:oz, oz, mL and g (i assume the volumetric measurements are calibrated to 20C water). Holding the Power/Tare button down for longer than 1.5 seconds turns it off, shorter than that tares the scale. I did notice the Unit and Power/Tare buttons were a little loose in their mounting - something that seems like could be improved with a little more engineering. I decided to do a rough cal check, so i tared it empty and then added a 200g weight, to which it measured exactly 200g. I will likely check further weights across the range up to its far end limit to verify linearity, but for a single data point it was a good start. I next installed the scale's app called Gennec. I was a bit surprised to find that my existing RENPHO mobile app i use for body scale was not sufficient/integrated with the nutrition scale system, which seems like a bit of a miss as being a user I’d prefer one app from a vendor to support same/similar-type devices (scales). None-the-less, the app was easy to install, and BT pairing between scale and app was straight forward and trouble-free. From this point you are sent to add an account to Gennec (a little disconcerting to give your personal/health info to an unregulated Chinese company), and then setup personal info (height, weight, etc.) along with goals. This is necessary in order to make use of the Plate and Diary functions and is understandable given the nature of the scale. I'd personally still prefer this info just stay with the app and have the option to upload or not. Using the app, i found that it responded quickly and accurately to whatever was placed on the scale (readouts were consistent). I then tried changing the drop-down item "What's on the scale?" to try a food item. This brought up a new page with a search field, and i entered the ubiquitous 'apple', to which it found server options for different data entries (at this point I'm curious what database it is drawing on to provide food info). Reading the scale, it gave back nutritional breakdown based on weight, along with mineral and vitamin information which i felt was a nice plus. Back at the search page, there is also a tab for 'Recent' (self-descriptive), 'Favorite' (presumably can be added to, wasn't able to determine how), and a 'Customize' tab that you can add your own food item to. At the main measurement page, you have a lower tab option to add a 'Plate', which become a compounding measurement so you can see how far away from your target you are. Similarly, is a Diary that keeps track of daily intake. It's worth noting that it feels like the scale would show more value by integrating with existing and well-established nutrition tracking apps, such as Lose It! or My Fitness Pal. Even the RENPHO body scale integrates with my Fitbit app so i'm not having to manually enter the data every measurement, one of the biggest values. As a consumer i ultimately want one app the maintains all my fitness and nutritional data securely and under my control, and has whatever hardware devices integrating into it to make it efficient and more comprehensive This device has potential for that, but needs to provide the connectivity. With all said above, for a ~$20 scale to provide accurate, BT connected food measurements with nutrition breakdown as needed, I feel like this is a good value and give it 5 stars.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Game-Changer for My Weight Loss Journey! I’ve been using the RENPHO food scale for my weight-loss journey, and it’s amazing! The scale is super accurate, easy to use, and has a sleek design that fits perfectly in my kitchen. What makes it stand out is the RENPHO app — I can instantly track calories, macros, and nutritional info for everything I weigh. The app has a huge food database, plus I can add custom foods and log my meals, making it so easy to stay on track. The tare function and clear LCD screen are really convenient, too. This isn’t just a scale — it’s a smart companion for anyone serious about reaching their goals. Highly recommend!

I bought this food scale to track my food better. The size is small but not too tiny. It weighs nothing so easy to pick up. If you download the app it gives more tracking features. It’s worth the money!

The battery life is about 1 month, it’s a perfect size for on the go. I use this scale everyday because I meal prep and it has not failed me. I would say it performs exactly how it should and it’s super easy to navigate and get the hang of. I will say though there are times where it gives me an “error” message when I turn it, at first I thought it stopped working but then i turned it off and turned it back on again and the message was cleared. The visibility is also super clear, if you need a small scale I do recommend buying this one.

Straightforward, accurate, and no learning curve. Does exactly what it’s supposed to do. Great scale.

I love this food scale! I love that I can use the app for my food scale and body weight scale. It’s a great combination for my weight loss journey. The scare is easy to use and looks nice on my counter. Works properly and easy to figure out.

This RENPHO food scale has been a solid addition to my kitchen, especially for portion control and nutrition tracking. The scale itself is compact, lightweight, and easy to store, but still feels stable on the counter. Measurements are quick and accurate, with no noticeable lag when placing or removing items. I primarily use it for weighing food in grams and ounces, and it’s been very consistent. The tare function works smoothly, which makes it easy to weigh multiple ingredients in a single bowl. The companion app is where this scale really adds value. It syncs quickly and makes it easy to track calories and macros without manually entering weights. For anyone focused on weight loss, macro tracking, or specific diets like keto, this can save a lot of time. That said, the scale also works perfectly fine as a standalone device if you prefer not to use the app. The surface is easy to wipe clean, and the display is clear and readable. I also appreciate that it handles a wide range of weights, from very small portions up to the listed capacity. Overall, this is a reliable, well-designed food scale that works both with and without the app. It’s especially useful for anyone who wants more precision and consistency in their food tracking without adding complexity. Would definitely recommend for everyday kitchen use.

Parfait

Nach mehreren "Billig Wagen", oft als Amazon Empfehlung gekauft, die samt und sonders nichts taugten (ständig andere Wege-Ergebnisse, völlig ungenau), ist diese Wage überraschend "stabil" in der Messung, schnell, einfach zu bedienen und sogar für "Familien Back Aktivitäten" geeignete Gewichte nutzbar.

I want to use this scale for weighing portions of creatine, protein powder and coffee been dosing but the "1 gram" accuracy isn't very accurate at all. weighing down the same scoop results in a fluctuating measurement often overshooting by 2 grams when adding weight on the scale. Makes this scale frustrating for dosing relatively small doses of powder or beans. Cons: - not accurate to 1 gram - needs app, but the app is finicky - tare doesn't always register - takes 5 seconds to startup Pros: - batteries included, ready to use - can measure water volume - glass plate makes surface easy to clean Deal Breakers: - there are cheaper scales when not using/needing the app

I like this scale because it’s able to give so much information with the app.. bmi body fat etc, it’s nice and light not at all cumbersome like they were years ago… I could put this in my handbag and go
