can you remove the bowl and still use the scale or is there a sensor on the device that fits the bowl?

the bowl is fully removable. you could use the scale without the bowl if you want to.

You can remove the bowl and still use the scale. Just take the bowl off and if the weight is not zero, push the tare button and it will change to zero. There is no sensor.

The bowl fits around the scale. So, yes, you can use the scale without the bowl.

The bowl is not attached at all, it's just sized/shaped to fit on the scale plate.

You can but I don't. Like the other commenter, I like the bowl so much and don't want to scratch it.

Yes. You put whatever container you've got on it, then tap the button on the right to zero the scale.

Hi, yes you can, but remember that this scale only measures smaller portions like ounces, grams etc. The scale is really good at measuring, I love it!

I do not have a scale that it fits on , but I'm small in size and do not have a problem with it. You can turn it with 1 finger. I lift it by myself .

Yes. You can zero out this scale after it contains material and then when you remove material the weight shows negative.

Nope. I didn't when I first used the scale, but ultimately got one and was very happy with it. Good luck!

I don't think that's necessary. The scale allows you to set to "zero" so the weight of the bowl is negated. When I tested the scale for my review, I used prepackaged items in my kitchen and allowed for slight variance and I found the scale to be within reasonable tolerances. Unless you're using it for another purpose than portion control or measuring in the kitchen I think you'll be fine.

Yes, the sensor can be removed and replaced. It may depend on the position it's in after it's screwed in.

Yes. The cover can be easily removed. This is a great scale and I have used mine a lot for mixing silicone and resins. Two decimal point precision provides for accurately mixing smaller size batches. I highly recommend it.

Yes, there is a small hole in the back of the scale which can be used to reset the machine. If you are still having issues after this point, I'd consider contactif customer support. https://help.fitbit.com/customer/portal/emails/new

The plastic feeder can be removed. Or you can put your bowl inside the plastic tray.

Never though of it but I suppose you could. I usually just reset the scale to zero when I put the plate on it and then the food, and if I'm measuring more than one thing I'll reset a second time for the next item on the plate.

John,It does not come off to clean it, At least not that I know of. However, I have wax paper I put down on top of the scale before I put anything on it to weigh it. Makes cleaning up easier =)

It's easy! You'll notice that below the "On/Off" there is "Tare." Turn scale ON. Put your bowl on scale. Touch TARE, and you'll see the scale does not go off, but just goes to zero. Now you can enter contents to bowl, and get weight of contents. It's a fabulous scale! LOVE it for getting postage weight.

The display part of the scale is not mounted to the scale itself. It's tethered so to speak.It can be unplugged from the scale if needed.
