Why do you use a luggage scale<\/a>? There is a weight restriction on every mode of transport. Therefore, it is always advisable to have a luggage scale so that you can be sure about the weight of your luggage. The airports are very strict and you may have to pay extra if your luggage is not within the stipulated limits. Statistics show that 87% of all travelers have their luggage overweight by three kilograms or more. Now, average airlines charge approximately 75 USD (5300\/-) per kg of overweight baggage. That makes an average fine of 15750\/-per passenger!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

WHY WHY WHY DO YOU WANT TO SPEND THAT KIND OF USELESS MONEY????<\/strong><\/gwmw><\/gwmw><\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. The Scale is made of tough ABS body.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

A tough body ensures a long life of the luggage scale. Luggage scales are small in size, so they can easily be damaged while weighing heavy luggage.\u00a0 What is the use of a luggage scale if we cannot make full use of it when required? We don\u2019t have to travel every day. Therefore, a good quality luggage scale is the most significant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. The scale has good grip.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The luggage is very heavy. Therefore, if we don\u2019t have a good grip on the luggage scale, we will unnecessarily have to bear the pain while weighing the heavy luggage. Only a good-quality product is manufactured in such a way that it will have a good grip. If a company is sure of its quality then why can\u2019t make its product with a good grip?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. The scale is easy to use.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

What is the difference between a commercial scale and a luggage scale if we cannot remove the hassles of complicated buttons? Why not just get the weight of the button as soon as we put the button on? Isn\u2019t the function of on\/off the only important function? Having a tear button option is an added advantage because sometimes due to air and other factors the weight of the scale may not start from zero. If the weight of the scale does not start from zero then it comes to zero by pressing the tare button. The scale is also easy to use if it is light in weight, small in size, and portable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. It is Repairable.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

If we know the manufacturer then we can easily get it repaired. Why buy from Amazon<\/a> or Flipkart<\/a>? Only a good quality product is repairable. Therefore why not choose a product which will get repaired. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Remember, in the beginning, we said that an average flyer has about 3 kg of luggage overweight. Well, you have two options at the airport. Either you empty all your luggage at the airport, in front of everyone, and avoid the 15000\/-fine (which most people do), pay the fine of 15000 (if you want to donate to the airlines because of their bad balance sheet), or you can buy an Alpha Luggage Weighing Scale for just 500\/-a piece with a 6-month warranty and avoid all the unnecessary drama.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
