Includes mat, warranty, and batteries, so it's ready to use immediately. I purchased it new online in January of this year and used it for about a month with a towel on the mat. After that, it was stored at home in its box. There are no scratches or stains on the main unit, but the shipping label was attached to the box when I purchased it from Amazon, so the box has some scuffs and marks from removing the label. It will be shipped in a cardboard box over the original box. This is a reliable baby scale used in maternity clinics to measure feeding amounts. Made in 2023 Tanita Baby Scale BB-105 IV nometa with feeding amount function, which shows the amount of milk consumed in 1g increments.
