According to Detecto’s President David Perry, the wide-range of scales offered by them, the ability to manufacture all aspects of those scales in-house, and not to forget, the worldwide brand name recognition makes them a premium choice for this program.

The shooting for three different segments took place at the company’s Webb City facility between February 27 and 29 in 2008. The products chosen were the highly popular Detecto 437 Eye-level Physician Scale , Cardinal Electronic EPR Truck Scale, and Detecto MCS Food Service Hanging Dial Scale, highlighting the versatility of Detecto’s product line. The three segments were scheduled to be aired at the beginning, middle, and end of the TV show season.
