I have it and used for a couple of months, but then I noticed that it started to "drift" from zero bi -0.1 to -0.3 grains for no reason at all. So I would recalibrate it, and after a few meadures it would start to drift again.

Normally that kind of variation does not make much difference but I'm reloading for long range precision so I had to get a good beam scale.

Bottom line is: if you're not looking for high precision it will do the job.
