the baggage scale compared with other luggage scales
the baggage scale vs dial scales.
'the baggage scale' has a viewing window on the top of the scale body so bags only need be lifted a few millimetres off the ground while the user looks down to get an instant reading. The handle is smooth and comfortable so weighing operation is easy on the back and fingers.
Dial type weighing scales have a snagging steel hook and wire handle which is very uncomfortable to hold. The dial is almost impossible for the user to read while lifting the bag.
Dial type scales are hard on the back because the user has to 'crane' over to try and see the dial while lifting the bag above waist level to get a reading.
the baggage scale vs electronic scales.
There is no need to lift-and-wait with the baggage scale, the reading is instant! 'the baggage scale' is robust with no delicate LCD. It has no batteries to run-down, go flat, replace or commit to landfill - ever.
Electronic scale versions all have a lift and wait cycle, incorporate delicate LCD displays and need batteries to work. Batteries can let you down just when you need them and most end up in landfill contaminating our environment!
