Practice with the transparent cover that protects the weighing plate during storage. Its sensitivity is good and just. After switching on, the measurement is in grams (accurate to hundredth). When tare weighing it easily with one press of the appropriate key. For those seeking conversion tl / oz / ct / gn, be aware that the "units" button can get stuck. Personally, I found that this small balance "made in china" was a good value for accurate weighing of spices and additives for the preparation of my dishes.
