Review on Accurate Plastic Caliper Metric Measuring Tool πŸ“ for Student Tests: Reliable Test, Measure & Inspect Device by Mike Carter

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Difficult to read - good for demonstration of use

I didn't expect an accurate quality tool (2 for) to cost $5.50. I just wanted something a student could pick up and measure a few things in the lab after explaining how to read the measurements. The kit included a black and a gray caliper. The numbers are legible, but the top and bottom marks on the main scale (fixed part) do not reach the top and bottom of the main scale, respectively; That means there's a significant gap between the markings on the slider and the main dials, making it difficult to see where the markings match. You can also rotate the slider a bit; it's free.

Pros
  • Very good value for money
Cons
  • Unbelievable price
