How much does it weigh?

What would you like to weigh?

Every page here answers one question and shows the spread behind the number. Nothing on this site is a measurement — it is a reference figure.


Food and produce

Groceries are the things people weigh most often, and the ones where a guess goes wrong fastest. A banana and a grapefruit look like the same handful and differ fourfold.

Kitchen things

Mugs, plates and cups of flour. Half of these numbers are asked because a recipe wants grams and the cupboard only offers a cup.

Tools and hardware

Weights here spread wider than anywhere else: a lighter and a cordless drill are both held in one hand and differ fiftyfold.

Everyday objects

Coins, batteries, a phone, a toy brick. Small, familiar, and useful as a size reference when there is nothing else in the frame.
