Shoutout to the cheap kitchen scale I almost threw away

I picked up this $10 digital scale from Target like 6 months ago just for weighing out bread ingredients. Honestly I thought it was gonna be garbage cause it felt so flimsy compared to my old one. But last week I was making a double batch of sourdough for a bake sale and that thing nailed every measurement down to the gram. My hydration percentages were dead on for once and the dough came together perfect. I used to think you needed a fancy brand or one with all these extra features to bake decent bread. Ngl this cheap scale changed my mind completely. Has anyone else had a cheap tool surprise them like that?

Picked up the same one and it's been going strong for a year now somehow.

Ugh I mean @the_wyatt I feel like that flimsy plastic gives out way too fast though.
