Glossary

Platform material

The material of the platform shows what the working surface of the kitchen scales is made of, where products, dishes, or the included bowl are placed. It affects the appearance, durability, moisture resistance, ease of cleaning, and how neatly the scales maintain their look with frequent use.

— Plastic. A plastic platform makes kitchen scales lightweight, inexpensive, and practical for everyday use. This material isn't afraid of common kitchen tasks, but over time it can get scratched, dull, or absorb stains from dyes and grease.

— Glass. Tempered glass gives the scales a neat appearance and is easy to clean after flour, sugar, water, or juice. Compared to plastic, this surface looks more modern and hygienic, but requires caution against bumps and falls.

— Metal. A stainless steel surface is more often found in practical kitchen scales designed for frequent use. It is resistant to odors, stains, and moisture, making it well-suited for working with meat, fish, dough, or liquid ingredients.

— Wood. A wooden working surface is less common and more design-oriented than maximally practical. It looks good in kitchens with natural materials but requires more careful maintenance and does not like prolonged contact with water.

Possibility of hanging

The possibility of mounting the scales on the wall. More precisely, in this case, it involves hanging the scales on a nail, hook, or other similar device. This feature is found exclusively in kitchen models (see "Type of scales"). It is mainly intended to facilitate the storage of the device: scales hanging on the wall are within reach and in sight, while not taking up space on tables and shelves. However, such a device generally cannot operate in a "suspended" state.
