What Customers Are Saying
Customers praise the caliper's affordability and portability for casual, hobbyist, and light-duty tasks, with many highlighting its reliable ±0.5mm accuracy for everyday measurements in woodworking, reloading, and small-scale machining. The compact design fits shirt pockets easily, and the digital display with metric/imperial switching appeals to DIYers. However, some report inconsistent calibration, flimsy battery contacts, and plastic components that feel cheap, with concerns about reliability under demanding conditions. Despite these drawbacks, most consider it excellent value for occasional home use.

Would RecommendGreat tool. Measure anything and convert from inches to mm. I use it to make pens and wooden pins via a lathe to the correct size.
Good product
Would RecommendI first thought this would be a cheap product after looking at the packaging, but it turned out to be very good. Good value.
Calipers
Would RecommendSensitive, easy to handle and take the measurements you need
Limited number of times used and now it says my thumb is 27” wide. It isn’t
Don’t buy
Would Not RecommendYou can measure something ten times and get ten different readings. Always need to be reset each and every time. And it will still give a different reading. It’s plastic not carbon fiber. One star is way too much.
Handy and acurate
Would RecommendI use this caliper to both measure and convert measurements. Fits well in pocket. Wish it had a 'stop' feature so a measure could be kept, as it slides very easily.
Great Calipers
Would RecommendA fine product. Due to it being made from carbon fiber it is extremely light.
OEM batteries and contacts subpar
Would Not RecommendPurchased two of these for woodworking, and reasonably satisfied. Beware that the OEM batteries are likely to leak and corrode in a hotter environment. Battery contacts on one broke when flexing back into place. In less than a year, both were unusable. I dropped some serious cash on quality calipers and have not regretted moving on.
Great Tool
Would RecommendThis does exactly what it is supposed to. Great tool, good price. and comes with a case. I like it.
A good first or second caliper. Great quaility.
I build guitars and this Caliper is much easier to handle then than the larger models.

Easy to use and accurate
Would RecommendI assumed getting a digital caliper would expensive, but I have completed a couple of projects that would have been more difficult with analog sets. I particularly like have three measurement settings.
No more frustration
Would RecommendBought a digital caliber from HF, trying to get constant read was a full time task. Bought this to see if I could do better. Yes I did. Now I have much more confidence in the reads! Am now able to get what was not happening before, constant reads. And in three different forms.
