On balance, it’s great!
I needed a scale to weigh accurately less than a gram of material; this little scale, so far, has done the job without flaw; it comes with a calibration weight that I used one time, and has held its calibration for two weeks or so. It’s less affected by drafts than I had feared, is very repeatable. The only thing I don’t like is that its automatic cutoff, which at one point says is one minute and at another is 30 seconds, in fact is if anything less than 30 seconds, which can be inconvenient; but one touch of the “On” button and it’s back in business. For the very low price, this is really a bargain; I feel like I did when I bought my first calculator in 1970!
Update (2/21/2012): This item is currently on sale here for the lowest price I’ve seen. I also found some auctions for this item here.

Decent
Its a descent pocket scale but needs to be calibrated often to maintain accuracy and requires care in order to not damage item. But, if careful will serve you well.

Amazing accuracy for ultra low price!
Ok I paid less than $30 to get this delivered in about 5 days. Unbelievable accuracy to 1/100 of a gram!
I cant believe it! If you blow on the scale it will register your breath!
I tested this unit by adding up several pcs individually using the TARE feature to zero out a larger container, and then weighed all pcs together at once and reading was EXACTLY THE SAME TO 1/100 gram! AMAZING!!!
Also tested by weighing what had been weighed in grams on 1/10 gram scale to compare- what a difference! 1 g might really be 1.5 g!!! look out!
My only complaint: it takes a little effort to get the top to unlatch when you open it- it may just be my unit, but i have to press the button in with one hand and pop it open with my other… not really a big deal to me, since this built-in lid protects the delicate weighing platform area.
In conclusion I would say that anyone buying a 1/10 gram scale is wasting their money- this 1/100 g scale is AMAZING!!!
plus it comes with its own calibration weight!!! DO NOT HESITATE!
