Rating of the best baby weights for newborns for 2022

Despite the specifics of such a product, the variety of models is impressive. The main thing is to decide why you need this item. If only for the daily determination of weight gain during breastfeeding, then it is enough to opt for a design with a non-removable type bowl that can withstand a minimum load. If you are ready to constantly control the weight of the child during the period of growing up, then give preference to models that are ready to cope with significant loads.

What are the options for sale?

What is a device? The design is uncomplicated. The main element is a bowl (bath) with small sides. A naked baby is placed there (or with a minimum amount of clothing), having previously laid a thin diaper on the bottom. This is the only way to find out the exact mass of the peanut.

The best manufacturers produce popular models of the following types:

• electronic;
• mechanical.

Let's look at each option in more detail.

Electronic

Differ in convenience and functionality. In the manufacture of the case, environmentally friendly plastic or light metal alloy is used.

Advantages	Flaws
Light weight.	Expensive.
Small error (10-15 g).	Operates on electricity or batteries.
Automatic weight detection by means of a sensor.	The level of wear resistance is negligible.
The system of stabilization and measurement of the exact parameter even with the movements of the child.
Modern appearance.
Variety of design solutions.
The presence of a memory function.
Equipped with a voice message.
Special care is not provided.

Mechanical

Appeared much earlier than electronic analogues. As a rule, metal coated with paint or enamel is used in the manufacture. The principle of operation is the compression of springs. There are also weights, a measuring rod and a scale. Determined manually. The weights must be moved until the position of the bar is fixed in a certain position.A necessary attribute of all children's clinics.

For the smallest, manufacturers produce pointer mechanical devices. They are intended for home use. Provide for manual control.

How to choose electronic scales for newborns

Before making a final decision, it is necessary to decide on which option it is worth choosing: electronic or mechanical. If you carefully study the positive and negative sides of the product, then the bowl of the product will lean towards electronic models. They significantly benefit in terms of parameters and options. Differ:

• informative;
• functionality;
• ease of use;
• universality;
• small own size;
• compactness;
• minimum error.

If you do not take into account the common drawback for electronic equipment - frequent breakdowns, then the acquisition can be called worthy of respect. However, if used carefully, the product will last more than five years.

All experts in the field of medical technology unanimously advise parents to purchase electronic options. However, if you decide to buy a mechanical model, then give preference to the switch. With weights you have to tinker.

The selection criteria are different for everyone. Some pay attention to the brand name, others try to find a product in the ranking of quality products, others pay attention to the price, and others are interested in functionality. Everyone is right in their own way. But there are nuances that should not be overlooked. These include:

1. Power type. There are several options: the power grid, batteries and batteries. Models can also be produced with a combined type of power supply. If at home equipment operating from the electrical network, then you should first check for grounding.Otherwise, the baby may receive an electric shock during the weighing process. Different types of batteries are suitable for different equipment. In most cases, you need to purchase AA or CR 2032. The type of power supply should first be checked with the seller in the store, or carefully read the instructions.
2. Memory function. Allows you to remember previous indicators and track the dynamics of a set or reset of indicators in a child. It is possible to save the current result and compare it with the previous value.
3. Price. There is a significant difference in price between electronic and mechanical products. So, a mechanical device for the smallest can be purchased for 2000 - 3000 rubles. As for electronic designs, there is no limit to good. Much depends on the maximum allowable indicator, size, additional functionality. Unpretentious with the usual set of options can be purchased for 3500 rubles. For the "bells and whistles" you will have to pay from 10,000 to 50,000 rubles. According to user reviews, you should not covet too cheap electronic devices at a price of 1,500 to 2,000 rubles. Such goods enter the Russian market from the territory of the Middle Kingdom and have dubious characteristics. The service life is also minimal.
4. Tare compensation option. A very convenient function if there is a need to determine the parameters of a child up to a gram. It is enough to put similar clothes, a diaper or a diaper on the device, and then reset it. Then, when weighing a toddler in clothes, its dimensions are automatically deducted from the total indicator. The baby does not need to constantly undress and dress. You look, and it will not come to whims.
5. Manufacturing material. Belongs to the category of basic characteristics. The vast majority of equipment is made of plastic.You need to make sure its quality and safety. If there are harmful impurities in the composition, the purchase should be abandoned. The thickness of the bath should be significant. Fragility can lead to cracking and harm to the health of the baby. The device should not be light.
6. The indicator of the maximum allowable load. Almost all models are designed for an indicator from 15 to 20 kg. But manufacturers produce equipment that is able to withstand a load of up to 30 kg and even overpower a 50-kilogram hero. Their distinguishing feature is the platform and the bowl of a removable type. As soon as the bath is removed, the product turns into a regular floor platform. They are able to control the weight of even a teenager.
7. The size and shape of the bowl. The length of the average devices ranges from 30 to 60 cm. The larger the indicator, the more convenient the weighing. The form should be convenient for finding the baby there. Borders must be mandatory. Their absence can lead to the loss of a child.
8. platform type. Designs with collapsible and monolithic platforms are produced. The collapsible view is more acceptable. Differs in ease in leaving and a practicality, and also elementarity during the transportation and storage.
9. Error. The accuracy of weighing depends on the indicator. This is very important when breastfeeding, if there are doubts about the adequacy of nutrition and its calorie content.

With frequent use, you should pay attention to the presence of additional options, such as:

1. Stabilizer. You should not think that the baby placed in the bowl will be motionless in it and wait patiently until its mass is determined. This only happens in fairy tales. This will be confirmed by all, without exception, parents. The activity of children can be envied.They will constantly move their arms and legs, try to roll over on their tummy, get up and sit down. Even with hyperactivity, the equipment is able to fix the dimensions of the little one.
2. Charge indicator. Convenient option. Applies to models that operate with batteries or a rechargeable battery. In order not to guess when it is time to purchase new chargers, the device itself will tell you “H time”.
3. Sound accompaniment. Light music or a familiar song will help your child relax and be less active.
4. Auto power off. Applies to battery operated devices. In automatic mode, they will turn off 1 - 2 minutes after the end of the weighing process.
