Gravitas™ Precision Kitchen Scale

Totally worth the premium pricing

"Fit and finish are remarkable and far superior to all of the cheap crap out there. Looks great on the countertop and it's a substantial size too. The display is clear, oversized compared to what I had and yes. . . . BACKLIT, a major plus for me. Response-time is fine. Auto-off as well. The rubber buttons have a great tactile feel to them. The stainless steel plate is substantial and of course the removable display is crazy-useful for measuring larger items. Yes you can buy cheaper scales. But once you use this one, all others pale in comparison. NOTE: It took me a few minutes to realize that the detachable display and the base unit each has its own battery compartment. Once I loaded them both with batteries, we were good to go. (Batteries are included, a nice touch. )"

Great scale. Very easy to use and works great

"I love this scale. I use it daily. I no longer have to have another small scale to get to tenth of a gram accuracy. The detachable display is so useful, no more struggling to see what the reading is. Just stick the display to the wall in front of you or leave it on the counter away from the large bowl on the scale."

Quite slow for the price

"I was really excited for this product as I’m a big fan of my Thermapens and have know for them to be quite responsive, and especially given the direction of the newest thermapen, I would have expected speed to be a priority. They say with engineering comes trade offs in display resolution, but I’ve tested this scale against my OXO (the most direct competitor), and two of my Acaia scales, and they all easily beat the Gravitas. I’m not sure if there’s something up with some folks batches, but to me this seems very substandard for what was marketed as an improvement over other offerings. The build quality seems nice and I like that the display is wireless, but did that choice come at the sacrifice of speed to measurement? Would love some clarity as to what the expected speed is"

"I very much appreciate where this scale is going, in what I expect will be future versions. Ergonomically, it needs more generous space on its edges for fingers to get under to lift it. It is heavy, which is good for the tool it is. It is slow to register weight changes, so pouring liquids can be particularly challenging. I haven’t personally qualified its accuracy, but given the pedigree here, I don’t doubt it. As a direct competitor to the Oxo, I like it a lot, but… this currently lacks, with speed being its only significant annoyance."

My go-to scale for recipe testing!

"As a recipe developer and food scientist, accuracy and precision are essential for creating recipes that home cooks can reliably replicate. The Gravitas scale measures in increments as small as a tenth of a gram, making it especially useful for weighing ingredients like salt, seasonings, and baking ingredients, where small differences can affect taste and texture. I’d normally need an expensive lab scale to get this level of precision, so I love that Gravitas delivers high-quality performance at an affordable price. It’s now a permanent tool in my test kitchen!"

The Dream Scale

"What I value most about this scale is its accuracy to 0. 1 gram, and it's design. What is mosts unique, remarkable, and useful is its removable magnetic backlit display, allowing easy visibility by better positioing of it when putting mixing bowls, large pans, or trays on the scale. the one improvement I would like to have is for the turn off button to have less than 3 seconds."

Best scale I’ve ever used

"I am a big sourdough baker and a kitchen scale is probably one of the most-used tools in my kitchen. The Gravitas has quickly become my favorite scale I own and now the only one I use. It’s incredibly responsive and precise, which makes such a difference when you’re weighing everything from large amounts of flour and water down to small amounts of salt or starter. I also love how sturdy and substantial it feels compared to others I’ve owned. Some of my favorite features are the little things that make baking so much easier. The tare function allows me to measure ingredient after ingredient directly into the same bowl without having to do any math or dirty extra dishes. And the fully wireless, removable display is a game changer for sourdough! When I’m making multiple loaves, I often use large mixing bowls that completely cover the display on my other scales. With this one, I can simply move the display wherever I can easily see it. I also LOVE the memory function. Anyone who bakes with kids around or is constantly being interrupted knows that sometimes it takes a few minutes between adding ingredients! Being able to pick back up without wondering what the scale said before is such a simple feature, but it makes a huge difference. The display is easy to read, it’s intuitive to use, and I love having a scale I can trust when I’m making recipes where accuracy really matters. If you bake by weight regularly, this is one of those tools you’ll appreciate every single time you use it. I genuinely didn’t realize how much better a kitchen scale could be until I started using this one. It has officially earned a permanent spot on my counter!"

Best scale on the market

"This scale has been life changing. From being able to measure the exact grams for my baking needs or the removable display scale that helps me maneuver the bulky bowls that would usually block the display, I absolutely love this scale! 5 out of 5 stars and a must have in your kitchen"

— Steph K. (5/5)

This scale is so slow to respond - horrible

"It is like they did not testing on this. The amount lags and updates so slowly that you will overshoot ingredients as you are trying to weigh them out. This thing is going right back. A long wait for a poor performing product. I am a long-term customer of thermoworks and love their stuff, but this one is poor quality and they let it out the door anyway which is too bad."

The top plate is not my favorite

"I like the scale but I really wish there was a way to lock the top plate in position when moving it around the kitchen. Otherwise I like the display and the wireless option for when the bowl/plate is bigger than the scale."
