First, almost all of these low cost floor scales are not the size they are promoted to be.\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0They’re 44″x44″ or 47″x47″.\u00c2\u00a0 And that is just the top plate. Once you measure the actual supported frame underneath the top deck plate, that low cost “4×4″ floor scale\u00c2\u00a0that you thought was such a great deal is now really a 46″ x 46”.\u00c2\u00a0 One of the scales we had in our possession had no label on it.\u00c2\u00a0 Who manufacturers these floor scales? Are they built and calibrated overseas and then imported by the hundreds, & stored in a container? Who is in charge of the quality control of these $400 4×4 floor scales<\/a>?\u00c2\u00a0 Who fulfills the warranty?<\/p>\n The manuals that came with the scales we checked\u00c2\u00a0are pretty much useless, unless you can read chinese.\u00c2\u00a0 In fact, we have had people call us and say that they bought this ultra cheap floor scale but now it won’t calibrate.\u00c2\u00a0 We\u00c2\u00a0generally offer them one of our\u00c2\u00a0quality digital indicators with a manual in english.\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0 Out of the two floor scales we looked at, one had proprietary components that can only be replaced by specifc parts that have to be sent from overseas.\u00c2\u00a0 That means more money you are going to have to spend and time you are going to waste waiting for parts to arrive.\u00c2\u00a0 Also, the other one had scrap pieces of steel used to form the side frame of the scale with welds right in the middle of the scale.\u00c2\u00a0 Not an ideal situation at all.<\/p>\n Based on our years of experience (at this time we’ve been in business going on 30 years) we think you’re better off in the long run buying one of our QUALITY floor scale systems.\u00c2\u00a0 Sure, it will probably<\/span> definitely be more expensive but that’s because it is a better scale.\u00c2\u00a0 We only try to sell QUALITY floor scales by\u00c2\u00a0reputable scale mfg’s that you’ve\u00c2\u00a0heard of like Rice Lake<\/a>, Pennsylvania, Salter Brecknell, and Avery Weigh-Tronix.\u00c2\u00a0 These are actual scale manufacturers that you can trust.\u00c2\u00a0 Call or email us and we will recommend the perfect floor scale for your application.\u00c2\u00a0 Order one of our high quality floor scales<\/a> today.<\/p>\n BONUS!<\/strong>\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0 We know where our floor scales are made and we know who made them.
