The best digital kitchen scale for most Canadians is the Amazon Basics Stainless Steel Digital Kitchen Scale at $16.19, rated 4.6 stars from 118,200 reviews. If you want a removable bowl and 0.1 g steps for coffee or baking, the Etekcity 0.1g model at $28.99 has the highest rating in this group, 4.7 stars.

Amazon Basics Stainless Steel Digital Kitchen Scale

The cheapest of the five at $16.19 (was $17.99 on Nov. 11, per the listing), it has a 4.6 rating across 118,200 reviews and Amazon says 4,000 or more were bought in the past month. The listing describes a stainless steel top, an LCD display and included batteries. Skip it if you want a rechargeable scale or a removable bowl, because the listing does not advertise either. A $0.40 eco fee may apply.

Etekcity Food Kitchen Scale, 11 lb

This is the most-reviewed scale in the group, at 4.5 stars from 196,400 ratings, and it costs $19.99 (list $21.99). The listing title names a tare function and 304 stainless steel, and says it suits baking, meal prep and liquids. Skip it if you need steps finer than the listing’s stated grams-and-ounces readout. Listings from the same brand share one review pool on Amazon, so the review count is not for this model alone.

Etekcity 0.1g Food Kitchen Scale with Bowl

At $28.99 it has a 4.7 rating from 17,400 ratings, and Amazon labels it a Number 1 Top Rated pick in the search results. The listing says it reads to 0.1 g, holds 11 lb (5 kg) and comes with a removable bowl, aimed at baking, coffee and portion control. Skip it if you only weigh large items, because the finer readout adds cost you may not use.

RENPHO Smart Food Scale

RENPHO sells this at $29.99 (list $33.99), rated 4.4 stars from 12,400 ratings. According to the listing it has a nutritional calculator, a Bluetooth app and an 11 lb capacity. It suits people tracking calories or macros. Skip it if you do not want to pair an app, and note that its 4.4 rating is the lowest of the five.

OXO Good Grips 11 Pound Stainless Steel Food Scale

The priciest pick at $82.99 (was $93.93, which Amazon flagged as the lowest price in 30 days), it is rated 4.6 from 8,600 ratings. The listing highlights a pull-out display, which keeps the readout visible under a large bowl. Skip it if budget matters: delivery was listed for Nov. 17 to 19 on the lowest-priced offer, later than the others.

How we chose. We looked at Amazon.ca search results for digital kitchen scales on Nov. 11, 2026 and picked five with strong ratings, large review counts and different jobs. We did not read customer reviews in full and we have not tested any scale. Prices accurate as of Nov. 11, 2026, and may change.

Is a 0.1 g kitchen scale worth it? Only for small amounts such as coffee, yeast or spices. For flour, sugar and meal prep, a 1 g scale like the Amazon Basics at $16.19 is what its listing describes as enough.

What is the best cheap kitchen scale in Canada? On Nov. 11, 2026 the Amazon Basics scale was the lowest-priced pick here at $16.19, with a 4.6 rating from 118,200 reviews.

Do I need a smart scale? Only if you track nutrition. The RENPHO listing says it pairs with an app and includes a nutritional calculator, and the other four do not claim that in their listings.

Will kitchen scales be cheaper on Black Friday? Possibly. Amazon.ca says Black Friday deals start Nov. 19, 2026, but we cannot promise any of these will drop, so check the price on the day.
