Favourite Food Scales? (self.fitness)

Hey everyone! I want to have food scales in two different locations (I am frequently at my in-law's house several hours away from my own home), and my solution is to bring my old scale here, and get a new scale for at my own home.

Does the fediverse have any tips for a good, relatively inexpensive scale. It's important that it displays weight in grams - it would be great if there are decimals for grams, but in my experience it's incredibly hard to find this.

Bonus if you are Canadian and have recommendations on where to buy in Canada as opposed to, say, amazon.com.

Thanks! :)

From my experience, if you need more significant digits (i.e. 1.5g or 1.05g) for grams you should look into a coffee scale. For my purposes the only things that need that level of accuracy are from baking (mostly for yeast and salt weights). For most other cases, I have a super cheap one (https://www.amazon.com/Ozeri-ZK14-S-Digital-Multifunction-Kitchen/dp/B004164SRA) and something more significant when I need to weigh something bulky (https://www.amazon.com/OXO-Grips-Stainless-Pull-Out-Display/dp/B079D9B82W).
