Quick verdict
The V60 Drip Scale is slim (29 mm tall) with a built-in timer, and battery powered. Its resolution is tiered: 0.1 g only from 2 to 200 g, then 0.5 g to 500 g and 1 g to 2 kg. That's fine for weighing coffee doses and pour-over water. But once a cup or server pushes the total load past 200 g, readings move in 0.5 g steps, which matters when weighing a 36 g espresso into a heavy cup. (We assume the tiers apply to total load, which Hario does not spell out.) Hario says it is not water resistant.

- Best for
- Pour-over brewers who want a slim scale that fits under a server.

The Amazon listing we linked shows part number VSTN-2000B, with the same 120 × 190 × 29 mm dimensions Hario USA lists for VSTN-INT-2000B (Hario). We treat these as the same scale sold under two part numbers, but that is our inference.
Strengths and limitations
What stands out
- Slim, at 29 mm, so it fits under a server.
- Built-in timer.
Limitations
- Tiered resolution above 200 g.
- Not water resistant, per Hario.
- Warranty terms not found.
Our recommendation
I'd pick the Hario for basic pour-over weighing. For espresso or flat 0.1 g precision, the Timemore Basic 2 is the better choice.
