I've been using the Etekcity Luggage Scale for several years now, and it has proven to be an invaluable tool not just for travel but for everyday use around the house. The primary function, weighing luggage, has never let me down; it's accurate and easy to use, ensuring I meet airline weight limits without any surprises at check-in. Beyond its intended purpose, I've found this scale surprisingly useful for other tasks. For instance, before hanging items on walls, I use it to check their weight to ensure my hardware can support them, avoiding potential accidents or damage. Its durability is commendable; after years of use, it still functions as well as it did on day one. This reliability prompted me to purchase additional units for family members and to keep one at a frequently visited destination, ensuring we're always prepared for travel. The scale is straightforward to operate, with a clear display that makes reading the weight easy, even in less than ideal lighting conditions. Its compact size means it's easy to pack or store when not in use, which adds to its convenience. Overall, the Etekcity Luggage Scale is a practical, multi-purpose tool that I highly recommend. Whether you're a frequent traveler or just need a reliable way to measure weights for various household tasks, this scale does the job excellently. It's definitely worth the investment.

I decided to pick up the Etekcity Luggage Scale because, while I stick to a carry-on, my family (six kids and a wife!) tends to pack like they’re moving abroad permanently. This little gadget has become an essential part of our travel routine, saving us from overweight baggage fees and a lot of unnecessary stress. First Impressions: The scale feels sturdy and well-made despite being lightweight and compact. It’s small enough to tuck into a carry-on or even a jacket pocket, making it easy to take along for international trips. The included battery is a nice touch—you can use it right out of the box without hunting for spare batteries. Performance: The 110-pound weight capacity handles even our heaviest suitcases with ease, and the readings are spot-on accurate. I tested it against the airline scales, and it’s never been off. The digital screen is clear, and the weight-lock beep is especially handy when you’re balancing a fully packed bag in the air. It’s simple to use and has saved us from the nightmare of redistributing luggage at the check-in counter. On a recent trip, I caught an overweight bag before we left for the airport, and adjusting at home was infinitely less stressful. What I Loved: • Compact and Portable: Easy to bring along without taking up valuable space. • Accurate and Reliable: Matches airline scales perfectly, so you can trust it. • User-Friendly Design: The beep and clear display make weighing bags quick and simple. What Could Be Better: • Lifting heavy bags to weigh them still requires some muscle—it’s not the scale’s fault, but it’s worth noting. • The screen can be difficult to read in dim lighting; a backlight would’ve been a welcome addition. Final Thoughts: The Etekcity Luggage Scale is a must-have for anyone who travels, especially if you’re managing a family like mine. It’s compact, accurate, and incredibly easy to use. While lifting heavy bags can still be a hassle, this scale takes all the guesswork (and extra fees) out of the equation. Rating: 4.5/5 This little tool has saved me time, stress, and money. If you’re someone who travels with a family—or just enjoys peace of mind at the airport—it’s well worth the investment! In fact, i liked it so much that I picked up a second one for my daughter studying abroad to keep with her in the Netherlands for her return trips home.

I bought this scale to help prepare for international travel to see family for three weeks, which meant I had a lot of items to take for them and a lot of clothes. I knew luggage weight was going to be an issue. I wanted to have something that would give me a decent ballpark measurement so that I could make adjustments of what to pack and how to pack as needed. After reading other mixed reviews regarding accuracy, I decided to give myself about a 4 to 5-pound wiggle room in the event the scales at the airport disagreed with the weight on this scale. I had two very large, tall bags to check-in and resigned myself to the notion that I would have to pay the extra fee for at least one of them to be over the free weight allowance. This scale was very helpful under those circumstances. The accuracy was decent -- about a pound or two different, but, again, I've been caught before having overweight bags at the airline counter and have since followed the rule of thumb not to max out the free weight allowance before going to the airport. I just never know how the scales at the different airline counters may be calibrated and also, items shifting in the bag can affect the weight distribution. Like all luggage scales with this design, I did have difficulty lifting the big, tall heavy bags high enough, steady enough and long enough to get a good reading for the weight. There is a strap that connects around the luggage handle and attaches to a hook under the scale. One thing that might help for those of us who are 5'5" or shorter is to have a bit shorter strap option so that the luggage does not hang quite as low beneath the scale. In order to get enough height over the bag in order to be able to lift up 62 pounds and hold it long enough for the bag to settle down and get a good reading, I had to find something to stand on. I tried the bottom step of our stairs, but it was not quite high enough and required me to lean forward which was both awkward and uncomfortable. I eventually resorted to a small but solid step ladder braced against a cabinet, and was able to lift the heavy bags straight up so as not to risk falling. I think if I were taller by another 6 inches, it probably would have been a little easier and less awkward. As I'm pretty confident there are no more growth spurts in my future, hopefully the manufacturer will reconsider the strap length and offer a shorter strap alternative. (Of course, only later did I feel a bit silly for not thinking of wrapping the strap around the luggage handle a couple of times to shorten the distance between the scale and the bag to reduce how high I needed to lift the bags -- if that would work.) For medium-sized (at least in terms of height) or smaller items, the scale was easy to use. One of the airlines I was traveling on sometimes weighss carry-on bags, so I weighed the backpack I was taking which weighed about 17-18 pounds. Because the backpack is much shorter, I had no issues lifting it high enough, long enough and steady enough to get a good reading. The display on the scale was easy to read, and easy to change between pounds and kilograms. I took the scale with me for the return trip and, to save the battery, just removed it from the scale and kept it in the same luggage compartment with the scale. I had no issues with battery life. I had to weigh and re-weigh the bags many times, and there did not seem to be a significant drain on the battery as far as I could tell. All in all, it's a decent scale, but just allow some wiggle room and, if you're 5'5" or shorter with tall, heavy bags, try wrapping the strap around the luggage handle a couple of times or recruit someone taller to help you.

We recently made a trip with two very heavy suitcases. This scale was easy to use, and we were able to calibrate our loads very close to the 50 lb limit. It must be accurate because the airline's scale read almost the same weight. It is lightweight and the read-out was very legible.

This is an easy way, for travelers going on an extended vacation for which driving is not an option, to weigh their check luggage BEFORE you leave the house to go to the airport. The magic number is 50 ...as in 50 pounds. You bust 50 pounds and you'll be penalized for overweight luggage; I've never done it, but I hear the penalty is substantial. This is a nifty device; compact, dirt simple to use and it will save your bacon (and wallet) from having to do that embarrassing public unpacking maneuver to lighten your luggage by shifting stuff to your carry-on ...providing you have room in your carry-on. As I mentioned in the title, this device gets you in the ballpark. There are no listed +/- accuracy specs. Maximum capacity for weight is 110lbs or 50kgs. So, if you weigh that new roll aboard and it ticks the scale at 49.7 pounds; you'd better lighten your load. Because as accurate as this device may be, it is the scale at the ticket counter setting the standard. How consistently accurate these Chinese-made luggage scales are is anyone's guess; this one was very close, reading slightly heavier (couple of tenths of a pound) than what we saw when checking the bag. But I would allow at least a pound ...maybe a little more ...of pad to be on the safe side. The scale will weigh in pounds and kilograms in increments of 0.1 pounds and 50 grams. Something totally unrelated to weight, this scale can be switched to measure the ambient temperature of the immediate location in either Fahrenheit or Celsius. And no, your bags don't get lighter the higher the temperature. Also don't forget to bring this scale with you. If, while doing time in Paradise, you go a little bonkers on souvies, trinkets and treasures, you can use the scale to see how you're doing, weight-wise, for the return trip back to reality. You can also use this to weigh many different things as long as you can hang them from the hook on the scale. And, if you just can't find that room thermometer, you can break out this little device and find out why you're sweating so much. We opted for the bright orange color with idea it would make it easier to find. Bon voyage.

I have bought several of these over the years. They are indispensible, a real must-have whenever you're flying anywhere. These days, when airlines are sticklers for weights and measurements, they come in super handy, helping you make sure you're not going overweight. (I can stuff a carry-on like nobody's business, and it's nice to know exactly how much the bag weighs). These are accurate and will always work, despite the fact that my peabrain can't figure out exactly how!
