Had both, originally Rubén's, liked the look of the Fox digitals so tried them and now back with the Rubén's.
Much more comfortable with manually zeroing the Rubén's and really didn't like having to take one of the batteries out and put back in each time to stop them switching on when not in use in your bag

Both decent digital scales I have the latest model fox digital scales that have been out 4 years now not the old type with fold out handles and have been perfect good battery life and also have a couple of sets of the Reuben heaton 9000 series stalker digital scales find them great aswell . I had a set of the earlier model 7000 series digitals scales few years back when they first came out found them ok but only let down was they switched of after 2 minutes for power saver mode . But Reuben heaton newer models were upgraded so they stayed on longer think it's 6 minutes I know my 9000 series digitals scales switch of after 6 minutes

I've got four sets of Reuben 9000's in various bags and have only ever had one develop a fault after a good few years, which Reuben fixed free of charge.

The newer type Fox digitals are a great improvement on the old version, had mine about 5 years and they've been flawless, zero button and good battery life and a robust case it comes in are a bonus.

The newer Fox ones are great, had them for a few years now and they have been spot on.
Had the original Fox ones and they were a pain with the batteries.
