Why TheWireCutter stopped recommending the OXO scale:
"The 11-pound-capacity, stainless steel OXO Good Grips Food Scale with Pull-Out Display was our former runner-up pick. It’s highly rated on Amazon.com and in the review by Cook’s Illustrated (subscription required), but after long-term testing we found this scale to be more expensive than it’s worth. While we appreciated its unique pull-out display, our testers did not like its measuring of ounces in fractions. This model was also one of the slowest we tested at reading measurements."
