Ratings & Reviews for Fluke 87V Industrial Digital Display Multimeter 10 Amp 1000 -Volt

Good DMM, lots of useful features

Good meter for all around Maintenance duties, Reliable.

In My Opinion: Superb Meter Has Disappointments..

Meter itself seems to be fine; all ranges & calibrations seem nominal. Packaging indicates unit was manufactured within a month of arrival. Packaging also indicates meter was made in the US… but surprisingly, no ‘made in’ markings were found on the actual instrument. It irks me to have confidence in ordering a ‘Lexus’ grade instrument, only to be disappointed by: 1.) Low end stiff springy leads! Where’s the forever ‘fabled in story and song’ Fluke silicone leads? Yes the ones included are ...

Ease of use and features.

I bought this to replace a 179 that was stolen. I like the added features.

Fluke 87 V, calibrated out of the box?

I've been using these for a lot of years and they work very well. I purchased a new one this week and there's no certificate of Calibration? I assume Fluke wouldn't sell me an out of tolerance produce. And given their product line, knows the importance of a calibration certificate. So is the unit calibrated or not?

I replaced a 1989 model #87

I have always had good performance from Fluke equipment.

Nice features for the price $450.

Full features for what you get. Grainger is the best rep to get test eq from quickly.

Time will tell

I had my company buy this specific meter to conduct ground resistance measurements and following the directions I still can't get a 0.00 ohms reading shen I short the test leads.. Also The test leads supplied had very tiny points. Now I haven't really looked to see if I can remove the plastic and find standard length tips underneath, but the log leads are great wish they had 3/4" probe length.

Simply the best.

Been using 87v models for over 10 years. New employer required personnel to purchase tools on their personal dime. Didn't hesisitate to get this model. Even though cheaper units are available. I preach Fluke to other industrial mechanics. The electricians already know about the trust in Fluke. Mainly 5 star review. -1 for the test leads. I have replaced too many sets simply because they quit working. Not pleased with the test leads. Fluke, you can do better in this aspect.

Best quality meter on the market, HANDS DOWN.

Got this last month, hands down the best meter you can get. I've been using another brand for awhile, getting some flaky readings for too long. Got this and it's been on the money now with no need for multiple readings to get averages. It's Fluke or get out for me now.

The good and bad of the 87V

I recently researched several Fluke brand multi-meters because I need a quality multi-meter. The Fluke brand is the only brand I was considering, its USA made, etc., quality design and parts, warranty and great reputation. I think there are other good meter brands and some of them have features I wish Fluke would consider. I suppose what I really want is a Fluke 87-6. This review is just my opinion of the 87V, as it is currently manufactured. My opinion is only about its features. I have ...

Great DMM

Great DMM. I use for AC, DC voltages, resistance and capacitance measurements. Wish it came with a calibration certificate as without it I must immediately send to a calibration lab!

The Cadillac of Multimeters

I've purchased several meters over the years. They would last 3-4 years then they found their way to the trash can. This Fluke 87V with its lifetime warranty will keep me from buying another meter (besides Fluke) ever again. I don't mind paying for quality that's built in the USA. That being said I own another Fluke, the 17b plus. While it's not the build of the 87V ,these two meters complement each other very well.

Buy once cry once

This is my first big boy multimeter. To be honest, I waited far too long to get one. No more second guessing my older, cheaper, and unreliable Sperry multimeter. I couldn't be happier with my purchase.

Excelent!

The best multimeter ever! All the features you need in a compact size!

New product for Lab use

replacement for 8021B product after 38 years. thank you.

Gets the job done

Rugged, acurite, dependable, variety of accessories if you need them

Accurate, reliable, & rugged.

I bought this meter because i want a meter thats durable and dead on accurate. Also wanted min/max features that were accurate and fast. Don’t want to break the ossiliscope out everytime i need accuracy. Would recommend this meter to anybody. Its pricy but worth it.

Accurate and reliable!

I bought this meter because it was rated accurate and reliable and it didn't let me down.

Still as excellent as ever

Finally decided to upgrade my 20 year old 2000 count 3.5 digit "Shack" meter. Let's not kid ourselves - this thing is pricey. But for the money you get a lot. And SAFETY. The 6000/20,000 count accuracy is great, but the response time, ruggedness, and true CAT ratings make this a "buy and forget" 4.5 digit meter. No regrets. If I own this for 20 years again it will be a joy to own. No need for data logging, USB, etc. I have other bench instruments for that. Fluke quality, still made in ...

most reliable DMM ever built

This was a gift to me last summer and is the most reliable meter I have ever had. I had other flukes in the past and have never had issues with any hand held fluke ever! I put 100% confidence in there equipment! This will last a life time
