Review: My Kitchen Scale Just Got a Sidekick and My Baking is Grateful! - My relationship with kitchen scales has been a journey. I started with a basic digital one, which was fine for measuring flour by the cup (converted to grams, because I was trying to be fancy). Then I got into baking, real baking, the kind that requires measuring yeast in amounts smaller than a sneeze. My old scale just laughed at me, displaying a defiant "0g" until I'd dumped in enough yeast to leaven a small car. Clearly, I needed more precision. And maybe a little more capacity for when I decided to make a truly epic batch of cookies. That's when the KitchenAid Dual Platform Digital Kitchen and Food Scale entered my life. I saw the two platforms and immediately thought, "It's a scale with a buddy!" The large platform handles the heavy lifting – flour, sugar, that giant bowl of dough. It's got capacity for days (up to 11 pounds!). But the real star, for my baking needs anyway, is the smaller, precision platform. This thing measures in tiny increments, perfect for those microscopic amounts of yeast, salt, or spices that make all the difference. It's like having a regular scale and a jeweler's scale had a very useful baby. Using them together is where the magic happens. The dual display shows both weights at the same time. I can be measuring flour for the main dough on the big side and simultaneously portioning out a minuscule amount of fancy sea salt for a topping on the small side. I feel like a mad scientist in a culinary lab, meticulously weighing out ingredients with pinpoint accuracy. My cat is probably wondering why I'm suddenly so focused on small piles of white powder. The tare function works flawlessly on both platforms, which is essential for adding multiple ingredients to the same bowl without doing complicated math (my brain is not a calculator, especially before tea). The scale itself is sleek and doesn't take up too much counter space, which is a minor miracle in my crowded kitchen. If you're tired of your scale ignoring tiny, crucial ingredients, if you need capacity for larger batches but precision for delicate measurements, and you enjoy the feeling of having a highly capable kitchen sidekick, this dual platform scale is fantastic. It's well-made, incredibly accurate, and has made my baking (and general cooking) much more consistent and less prone to accidental ingredient avalanches. My baked goods are happier, and so is my sanity. I'm thoroughly impressed with this two-in-one wonder.
Review: Very hardy - I ordered this one because I thought I killed my last one while making sourdough bread. This scale is my husband's pride and joy and one of the only things in the kitchen that he claims as his for making pizza. Imagine my panic when the scale stopped working. I dropped water on it and didn't realize how much went into the scale. I kept the scale in the cabinet while crossing my fingers that this one arrived before my husband got the urge to start the pizza dough process again. Thankfully, it did. Expect the other scale started working again after fully drying out, I guess on the inside. I have decided to keep this scale as an emergency backup in case I do indeed actually fully kill the scale in the future.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can this measure 2.4 grams**
A: yes, technically, as long as you use the small platform and your vessel you measure into isn't so heavy as to max out the small platform weight limit. Although my experience with this scale is that it was cheaply made and inconsistent in it's accuracy

**Q: I know this scale comes already calibrated, but can it be manually recalibrated in case it loses calibration?**
A: The smaller scale can be calibrated with a 500gram weight by holding down the lb/gram button until it reads “CAL”. I have not figured out a way to calibrate the larger scale unfortunately. There is no mention of this in the instructions.

**Q: Can it be changed in Grams and ml?**
A: The ml unit on a scale assumes the liquid being measured is water. 1 ml of water weighs 1 gram, so a ml measure is redundant.

**Q: Can you recalibrate the scale?**
A: I am not sure what you mean by "recalibrate." It will give you the weight in pounds or grams. You can put an empty vessel on it and then turn the scale on and it will zero out the weight of the vessel.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This is a great scale — well worth the money
*by A***N on November 23, 2025*

I recently purchased the KitchenAid KQ909 dual-platform digital kitchen and food scale, and my wife was very pleased. For the price, it offers excellent value. It measures accurately and quickly, with a large platform for heavier ingredients and a fine-precision platform for smaller, delicate measurements. The controls are intuitive, and one of the biggest advantages is the use of real physical buttons instead of touch controls — a huge improvement when your hands are wet or messy. Another great feature is that it runs on regular AAA batteries. The display is large, bright, and easy to read. Overall, it's a reliable, well-designed kitchen tool that’s both practical and pleasant to use. My wife is happy to have it on the counter, and I’m genuinely impressed with this two-in-one design. Highly recommended for anyone who wants an accurate, durable, and user-friendly kitchen scale.
