Question Need Some Opinions/Advice On Scales

I am currently looking for a good scale. Since I'm new to the weighing of foods, would this be a good starting scale?

Any and all thoughts and opinions welcomed.

That seems kinda pricey for a scale. I know you don't have Meijer's down by you, but I'm sure Walmart would sell just the same. I bought a new scale about a year ago and it cost me less than $20 and it weighs up to 11 lbs in both grams and ounces (I find grams are easier to work with.)

These scales are fab and a lot cheaper than the salter scales.
