First of all it is 100% working and corresponds to the product description. For general "medium precision" measurements it is fully functional and fairly inexpensive. However, digital calipers are about double the price, in this case doubling the money really isn't that much. :) Most medium-sized calipers have an additional accuracy figure (0.01 mm instead of 0.1 mm as on this device). This probably won't be a big deal for most users, but the bigger difference in the quality of the day-to-day experience is that more comfortable calipers have a thumbwheel to help you take measurements more consistently than a sliding action that this device has. Calipers at this price have room and are excellent at filling that space. To me, this place is like a second/third/spare set of calipers to stash in my toolbox or trunk of my car, and also have a slightly more comfortable set for everyday use on a workbench. Additive.
