The Ohaus SP4001 is a great digital scale, but we do get calls from people saying they want to buy an American made digital scale (yep, the Ohaus SP4001 is made in China) and we do have one available that is made in the USA - the Sartorius AY-5101. Sartorius is assembled Arvada, Colorado. Sartorius makes of some of the world's finest balances since 1871 when they introduced the world's first pharmaceutical balance. The Sartorius AY5101 (5100g x 0.1g) offers similar specifications as the Ohaus SP4001 and we have the Sartorius AY5101 priced for less money than the Ohaus SP4001.
For a limited time we are sell the Sartorius AY5101 (5100g x 0.1g) for less than what we sell the Ohaus SP4001. We made a special purchase on the AY5101 and selling them so low that the manufacturer won't let us advertise the price. Because our price on the Sartorius AY5101 is lower than the manufacturer's "minimum advertised price," Sartorius does not allow us to show you our price until you take further action by placing the item in your shopping cart. It's a no brainer while supplies last the AY5101 offers greater weighing capacity (5100g vs 4100g), longer warranty (3 years vs 2 years) for less money than the Scout SP4001. Oh and Sartorius has more experience designing and building precision balances than Ohaus. The Ohaus Scout is a great digital scale but this offer on the AY5101 is an unbelievable digital scale.
If price is absolutely the #1 issue and you are in search of the lowest cost 0.1g digital scales then we have a couple of other digital scales that are made in China. These gram scales do not have all the bells and whistles included in an Ohaus SP4001, but the price is much less. For our customers seeking a simplified digital portable scale, with less features we recommend the Myweigh's i5500 (5500g x 0.1g) or EPB-6K Electronic Scale (6,000g x 0.1g) that are priced less than the Ohaus SP4001. Selecting any of these digital scales you can get much more weighing capacity for less money.
If you are a jeweler or pawn shop and were told by a Weights & Measures Inspector that you need a Legal for Trade Class II Scale the Ohaus SP4001 is NOT Legal for Trade and we recommend you purchase the A&D EK-1200i or Mettler Toledo JL6001-GLA01 digital scale.
