I'm looking for a new scale too and would love one that can be plugged in. Is this the popular scale on here?

Just have to say Thank You! Got my 8000 yesterday and it's wonderful.
Numbers move perfectly with no real lag and the platform size is nice. Not to big or small.
And I like the cover.. Mine always got so messy.

I'm glad someone benefited from this discussion. When I got mine it was a shot in the dark. Glad you like your new scale!!!

I'm so glad I found this thread! I was looking at the KD8000 and now I've decided to get it.
^^^ I know how you feel! I just got married and we were given a Dyson upright, I think it's the Dyson DC-330... I always thought a vaccum was a vaccum, but the Dyson is wonderful!

I'm just a home soaper and weighing big quantities isn't something I need to do, but weighing very small quantities is. I recently bought a new scale and it simply can't weigh things like just 15 grams of EO even though it claimed to be able to weigh accurately to 0.1 gram. So I've just bought the cutest little teensy jewelry scale that can weigh down to 0.01 grams and it's pink!! It's so cute. It only cost a few pounds, too.

I ordered the KD-8000 from eBay and I got it today- haven't used it for soap yet, but I played around with it and I think I'm really going to like it. Great display and reads weight almost instantly- I also LOVE having the tare function!!

I did the same thing and got the KD8000. So far I like it, works fine for me. I haven't really used any other digital scales though.

I love enabling soapers and canners
Lol!!! I am still REALLY loving this scale!!! I use it for cooking and soaping. I have had zero problems with it. I just made 2 batches of my Mocha Scrubby Bars and had to measure out a few small amounts each time. It worked great for even the tiny amounts.
The good news is my new scale came today:clap: The bad news( well that is the sad news) I can't use it because my husband's been gone for over a week and wouldn't you know he's coming home tonight.

I'm so sad either my new scale doesn't work or I'm real slow . I can't even get it to turn on and yes I did pull the little plastic thing out of the battery compartment . I even put different batteries in. Plus the flat piece that goes on top seems tight isn't it suppose to go up and down a little?

Ok what's the big flat piece that goes on top? The stainless steal/metal piece with plastic legs that fits into the 4 holes on the scale?

Mine went on tight like that too, I was also expecting it to be loose. I know there is a switch on the back (where the power cord would go if you have one). I don't know what that switch does, try flipping that then turning it on. I've used mine a couple times and that switch is the only thing I haven't figured out and it is unlabeled. I used a variable power adapter and not batteries (stole it from my sisters gameboy thing he he he don't tell! She's too old to play that thing anyway ).
Does anyone know more about this scale? I really hope you don't have to return it
