Perfect Company Bake 1.0 Smart Digital Kitchen Scale with Recipe App - Precise Baking & Cooking Measurements - White Color - Ideal for Home Bakers, Meal Prep & Kitchen Cooking

Oh my gosh this gadget is fantastic!If you work in a large food service operation/bakery, you already know that chefs working in this type of environment use weight to measure nearly everything -- it is the only way to know that you are not overpacking a measuring cup (or likewise, not seeing a "bubble" in a cup of flour). The recipes on the app are spot-on and I've made some things that are out of this world tasty.I know that the later (and more expensive) versions of this product feature better interfaces (i.e. bluetooth, wireless, etc), but I have had no problem with the wired connection -- I even have an iPhone 7 and have to use the dongle with lightning port and have had no troubles. The Perfect Bake app is fun to use -- and has tons of recipes. I have not yet converted my own recipes but plan to do so soon. As an added bonus, I was able to download and use the Perfect Drink and Perfect Blend apps too -- which makes this product very useful for making mixed drinks and smoothies.I am very impressed with the capacity of the scale (11 pounds!) and have even used the scale without the phone as a kitchen scale. It is my understanding that the manufacturer has discontinued this model, but it is still a very good product and you can't beat the price. I was prepared to pay quaduple what I paid after seeing this product at a local kitchen store.
