There are many options available when searching for accurate, precise laboratory balances with a 0.1 mg readability (0.0001 grams).  Our current catalog of analytical balances consists of either a force restoration or tuning fork weighing mechanism since they are much more dependable than the lower priced strain gauge balances.

Adam Equipment analytical balances are our most affordable with a 0.1 mg resolution.  They also come standard with internal calibration and plenty of advanced functions at a truly amazing price.  The large display is also easier to read than most other lab balances of its calibur.  The one drawback when choosing the Adam PW Series is its larger size.  In recent years, most analytical balances are much more compact when the readability is 1/10 of a milligram.  Aside from that, PW balances are a cost saving solution for laboratories on a tight budget.
