ConvertersNo. 23 / 24approved
One value, every weight — grams, kilos, tonnes, ounces, pounds, stones and tons. Because a stone is a measurement, not an emotion.
1 kg ≈ 2.2 lb is how luggage and dumbbells make sense at once.

pro tips
A pound is 453.59237 grams. Someone really measured it. We trust them.
A stone is 14 pounds — the imperial system being polite about your weight.
Rough math: 1 kg ≈ 2.2 lb and 1 oz ≈ 28 g. Good enough for luggage and butter.
what it does
Type a number, pick its unit, and every other weight unit updates at the same time. Milligrams, grams, kilograms, tonnes, ounces, pounds, stones and tons — the whole scale in one screen.
The conversion runs through grams, the unit everyone quietly agrees on. Click any result to copy that particular value, because someone will always ask for the number in pounds.
Handy for recipes, luggage, gym plates and the eternal "how much is that in pounds?" — the question that ends friendships and airline trips.
Use it when a recipe speaks grams and your cups speak ounces, when the gym bar is in kilos but your app is in pounds, or when the airline limit is in kilograms and your suitcase is stubbornly imperial. One value, every unit — the whole scale at once, click any result to copy it.
quick answers
How do you convert kg to lbs?
Multiply by 2.20462. The widget shows every unit at once, so pounds, stones and ounces are all right there.
What is a stone in pounds?
14 pounds. It's the imperial system being diplomatic about your weight — common in the UK, mystifying everywhere else.
Are the conversions exact?
The factors are the official ones; we round the display for readability. For recipes and luggage it's more than precise enough.
Why is a US ton different?
A US short ton is 2,000 pounds; a metric tonne is 1,000 kg. Close in spirit, different in the warehouse.
