In a kitchen scales I may assume that it survives splashes of liquids without prejudice. That is, in this construction, but not the case, once liquids splash on the scales above this run directly on the side into the housing. So it gives me several times happened that water has run into the display, and this therefore has to stop working to dryness. And sprayed against the scale since from the beginning it is water from all over, now the scale counts only wild up and down! As you wonder whether the great developers have heard of seals before, yes, this 2 cents expensive Wunderwercke modernity could have prevented all this. If you then also look at what the cables are fixed to the inside, a surprise nothing more strips of adhesive tape, not even for a reasonable tape it was enough there. In short, a kitchen scales that do not withstand splashing is useless and nothing but another product that apparently is to break down after a certain time, for the benefit of capitalism, I call it a waste of resources.
