Works quickly and accurately

Counter works great! was able to get accurate wood measurements quickly. The bright screen lets you read all day. For $23, I was surprised to see that it's durable and sturdy. I was able to turn it on right out of the box and get readings in just a few seconds without too much setup. The only small but annoying issue was that the cap protecting the pens was a bit difficult to remove.

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • Empty

Accuracy is great, but calibration is difficult.

I have a huge deck in my backyard and I live in the Midwest so my deck can withstand the cold, monsoons and rain. This means my decking and wood steps MUST be checked for moisture to determine when they need to be replaced. This moisture meter is the answer. Its accuracy levels and readings are spot on. BUT it's not that easy to use. You really need to learn how to set it up for proper calibration. A long chart is included which is better to look at if you want the best readings.

Pros
  • Confident
Cons
  • Could have chosen a newer model

Helpful if you cut your own wood

A friend and I have recently started sawing our own wood for use in small woodworking projects. We just estimated how long the wood needs to dry before we can process it. I looked into a moisture meter because our calculations were very different when we tested lumber with a rented moisture meter. I came across this product and bought it based on the good reviews. So far so good and great for the price. This one reads fairly accurately with another moisture meter we tested with and I haven't…

Pros
  • This is great
Cons
  • I'll text back

Very good and easy to use Moisture Meter

I have a small wood shop and needed something to make sure the live wood I was harvesting was (relatively) dry and ready to use. I've used this several times and it works very well. Just follow the instructions and the rest is incredibly easy. Has settings for building the loin and then a diagram for the setting to use live wood. I tested it on a mate's counter and it was very accurate and I have to say for the price I would definitely buy it again. In fact I started testing everything before…

Great for checking wood moisture content

I usually only rate a product if it's very good or very bad! Well, my review is presented because this moisture meter is very good. I bought this moisture meter because I want to know the moisture content of the wood I'm buying. That works great! I did extensive research to find out what the best moisture content is and found that the ideal level is 15-20%. Above 20% there is too much smoke and below 15% it burns too fast. This moisture meter has an easy to read backlit digital display, is easy

Pros
  • Pleasant
Cons
  • Expensive

Easy to use, works great. :)

The moisture meter is quite easy to use, I figured it out before reading the instructions (I usually can't wait to read them and generally only do it when I'm not knows how to use it somewhat) and within seconds I was installing the battery in the battery compartment and checking the moisture level of some logs I had put in the log basket by the fire. I was happy to see that they were all below 18%, averaging 14%. My installer told me to only use logs with less than 18% moisture for maximum…

Pros
  • Solid surface
Cons
  • Some problems

Easy to use. good for measuring and marking tools

I bought this wood moisture meter to check the moisture content of recently purchased wood. The firewood supplier told me that his firewood was "seasoned" and ready to burn. Firewood should have a moisture content of no more than 20%. The smaller firewood I've bought has a moisture content of 20% or less, but none of the larger firewood has this moisture content. All of these pieces have between 54% and 72% moisture, so the supplier wasn't honest about the wood being ready to burn. Love this…

Pros
  • Permanent Test Results
Cons
  • Secret

Happy with this meter

media could not be loaded. Very impressed with the quality of this moisture meter. It's lightweight but well built and durable. The meter has a solid construction, which means it fits your hand snugly and won't bend, bend, or make any stress noise during use. It won't do any of this if you intentionally try to bend or twist it. The probe cover fits snugly and snugly and snaps on well. It doesn't fall into a bag or drawer somewhere. There is a screw on the battery cover that holds the batteries…

Pros
  • cool product
Cons
  • disappears

I purchased this product based on the strong reviews which turned out to be for a different product than the one I received - look at those reviews and you will see that most of them are for THM01 while this list is now for THM02. The THM02 comes with a detailed manual in English (non-English) which is fairly easy to understand but also includes an extremely extensive back wood list as stated in "BS888 & 589:1973". There are about 140 species, which the creator of this table probably divided…

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • Unreliable

Moisture level lets me know when to use this material

Tool arrived as described. The box contained a bubble-wrapped tool, two AAA batteries, and instructions. tool inspection; There is no visible indication of what material was used. Checking the outer shell using multiple methods showed that it was plastic. The casting is quite good, with no dents or formations that would indicate a worn stamp. It is smooth on all surfaces inside and out and fits together snugly. The top cover stays secure to protect the tabs hidden underneath, which features…

Pros
  • High marks for grip and durability from testers
Cons
  • Not as thick as other picks
