Best Grey Coffee Scales

The best grey coffee scales, ranked by our review scores. The compromise finish, and a sensible one: neutral in a kitchen that is neither white nor black, and better at hiding marks than either of them. Grey also tends to be the colourway a maker keeps longest, which matters more than it sounds - a discontinued colour means a replacement carafe or lid that no longer matches.

How this list is ordered

Ranked by arithmetic, not opinion. Every score is worked out from the specifications each maker publishes, so you can open the working on any product page. Anything commercial is labelled and sits outside that order, and how we score explains what each criterion measures.
