Acaia Lunar Brewing Scale

Great product and seller

We've had this scale for a few years now and every day there's an issue with it. Now, it's mostly an H20 message which appears to be a water error. We looked at the company's troubleshooting instructions and it says to set the scale aside to dry for 24 hours but our scale hasn't been used for a week and isn't close to water or humidity in any way, and it's still displaying this error message. Now we can't even turn it off because it says H20repeatedly when you hold the power button to turn it off, but it won't turn off. We did a firmware update and it was of no help. Please stay away from this product. We've contacted support in the past and the company will usually respond with a reason why it's your fault or something you did wrong.

The scale itself is a commercial grade work of art. Bright, responsive; really quite extraordinary. My only regret was not researching the price. Had I done so, I would have saved over $50. This also didn’t have Prime shipping. Hope others can benefit from my mistake.

The scale is accurate, stylish, and comes with an app that lets you analyze your shot extraction. Is there value for the money—no. It’s a luxury item for people who have an espresso hobby.

This is an overpriced $300 scale made in China. There are plenty of other scales for sale that are also made in China for like 1/6 the price and perform just as well and look just as good.

I can buy 9 AWS scales for the price of one of these (or 25 of the less-expensive ones!). Yes, it's nice that it's protected against liquid, but in my five years of using the AWS scales, I've ruined exactly 1 from liquid and my second one has lasted years now. I'll take my chances on the less expensive ones and will pass on this.
