Polaris PKS 0832DG

Among the wide variety of platform kitchen scales, the brainchild of Polaris is one of the most popular solutions on the market. The thing is that the model attracts potential buyers with juicy 3D prints applied on top of a glass platform. Consumers prefer images of spices and raspberries.

Accuracy

Bright design is not the only pride of scales. They are also characterized by accurate weight measurement and the minimum step of weighing readings (within 1 g). The only conditions for the correct functioning of the device are restrictions on the minimum and maximum weight of products: Polaris PKS 0832DG operates in the range from 50 g to 8 kg. In case of excess of admissible weight the indicator of an overload works.

Weighing

The screen for displaying weighing readings is located on the bottom of the front panel. When a wide plate is installed on the balance, the display is partially covered by its edges. To the right of the screen are touch buttons for switching units of measurement (grams / ounces / milliliters) and zeroing the tare. The presence of the last key unambiguously makes it clear that the balance supports the function of determining the volume of liquid.

Nuances of operation

The manufacturer insistently asks to store the scales in a horizontal position, so it is not worth leaning them against a wall or hanging them by a hook. Another ambiguous point of the model is the inaccurate zero reading when the scales are installed on uneven surfaces. The solution to this nuance is carried out by turning the device on / off.

Optimal ratio

The scale is powered by one CR2032 button cell battery. Access to its replacement opens quite easily. In general, the model will serve as the best option in terms of price-quality ratio for any kitchen, helping to accurately weigh the ingredients to create, if not culinary masterpieces, then at least delicious delicacies.
