The one scale here built to survive a drip tray. Six modes, auto-start timers and a silicone cover — which addresses the thing that actually kills coffee scales.
Where we land on it Buy it for the sealing, not for the modes.
Every coffee scale review ends up in the same place — resolution, refresh speed, footprint — and then owners replace theirs after eighteen months because water got into it. This is the one that treats that as the actual design problem.
The body is water resistant and it ships with a silicone cover, which together address the environment a coffee scale genuinely lives in: a wet drip tray, next to a steam wand, under a portafilter that drips when you knock it out. Nothing else here is built for that, and it is the reason to choose this over a Timemore.
The measurement side is competitive rather than exceptional. Two kilograms, 0.1 g (0.004 oz), and a refresh quick enough to stop a shot at 36 g (1.3 oz) without overshooting. Six modes, of which two are genuinely useful — auto-start espresso, which begins timing the moment weight appears, and a pour-over mode with a bloom timer.
The interface is the weak point. Six modes on two buttons means holding and cycling, and you will consult the manual more than once in the first two weeks.
The silicone cover has one irony worth mentioning: it collects coffee grounds in its edges and needs washing itself. That is a considerably better problem than a dead scale.

What people want to know
How much does water resistance matter?
It is the difference between two years and two months. Coffee scales sit on drip trays and beside kettles, and almost none of them are sealed — water ingress, not wear, is what kills them. This is the only scale here that treats that as a design problem.
Are six modes useful?
Two of them are: auto-start espresso, which begins timing when weight appears, and pour-over with a bloom timer. The rest are variations you will set once and forget. More modes is not the reason to buy this.
