TJ: I'm not the baker however my wife tells me the calculator works great. Similar to other reviews it does have a bit of a learning curve and is not very intuitive. Having said that once you get on to it it does the job.

GlevumGuy.: It’s a nice addition to a kitchen counter, the dual timers work well, and continue in the background if you interrupt for some other task. But I wish it included keys/conversion factors for metric and imperial measure. It’s just the right place for it and that handy feature would greatly increase the calculators use value.

Amazon Customer: Great tool for calculating measurements while cooking or baking. Easy to use. Awesome gift idea for the baker in your family or circle.

Kim: So pleased with this calculator. Bought this to convert dry weight into cups and tsp etc. for pricing Market sale products. (My old one only converted Liquid.) Love this as it does both liquid and dry and so much more. So glad to have found it. Indispensable for my needs.

Peter Hanson: Although this calculator may be a bit of an investment, it is well worth it and will probably be the only kitchen/culinary calculator you will ever need. It does metric conversions and kitchen measurement conversions six ways from Sunday. It will allow you the upsize or downsize recipies to your heart's content. The dual countup/countdown timer functions are highly useful. The tilt-up display makes reading your calculated results a breeze. I find the larger size of the 8305 easier to operate with my man-size fingers than what would be the case with a smaller hand-held unit. The only criticism I have is that although it does come with a removeable protective plastic cover sleeve, it is very difficult to operate the calculator with the sleeve on due to the thickness of the sleeve. Notwithstanding this minor flaw, I highly recommend this product for anyone obsessed with 'getting it right' in the kitchen.

NormsKid: This calculator is fantastic for doing all of the kitchen calculations one would need to do in any type of kitchen! As a Culinary Student, I've learned how to do the calculations in several steps using a regular calculator, but this one takes out several of those steps to get you to your correct answer in the fewest steps possible. Recipe conversions & costing the easy way! It even has two built in timers for live cooking applications.
The ONLY downside of this calculator is that the plastic cover that came with mine was very difficult to get on the calculator & once I got it on, the buttons didn't work properly because the fit was too tight. I will have to see if I can find a way to stretch it out some, without ruining the cover........or send it back & request a new one that fits properly.
If you have trouble remembering conversions & being able to do them in your head, this solves that problem. It converts to metric also if you need that....

Chef ScottChef Scott: Love having this around to adjust recipes, portion sizes and go from liquid to powder measurements. Very easy to go from cups to gallons and then to liters if needed. Gives you the option of 2 timers, and regular mathmatics as needed. Comes with a protective cover for the kitchen and is quite durable!
