Avoid charges for overweight luggage ! Any luggage over 50 pounds on US Airlines is subject to a charge .Simply clip this scale to the handle of a suitcase or bag-lift the bag with the handle shaped scale until it beeps-you have the weight of your bag appear in the large LCD on the scale-as simple as that. Push a button and the scale resets to zero for the next bag. The scale is compact and light weight so you can take it along for the return journey-I swear that travel dirt gets heavier every year.

useful:
this is a good purchase for those of us who travel often and are terrible at calculating the weight of our bags. it surely can save you a lot of hassle to pack within the airline's weight limits!
the scale is fairly small and light, easy to use, and has big enough numbers... its only shortcomings are the fact that you have to lift the bag with just one hand to weight it (which can be hard with very heavy bags) and that the battery in mine was almost dead when i received it, so it was pretty much... more info
Not for heavy suitcases.:
This luggage scale doesn't work if you want to weigh a luggage that is about 50 pounds. The instructions says you have to use one hand and place the luggage on the side. It's not very easy trying to lift a heavy suitcase with only one hand for 10 seconds. Even an strong person will have difficulties with this scale. Didn't work for me.
Execellent Product:
I am very pleased with this product. It is reasonably priced, really handy, very easy to use and, most important, accurate.
Great little tool, easy to use and small:
I love to travel, but am not too great at packing light. This little gadget will safe you stress well worth the price tag. No more scrambling at the airport and switching things around in bags to not go over the 50 pound limit. It's pretty small and extremely easy to use. Just make sure you have it on pounds and not kilograms : )
