Vernier Caliper 150mm

Delivery on time and undamaged. Item as described as per pictures. Comes in plastic storage box and ready to go, with two additional batteries. Less expensive than some of the premium brands but so far found this a dawdle to use with a clear digital readout. Seems to be accurate when tried with known measurements. Solid feel and smooth movement = better quality than the looks would suggest. Good value - recommended.

This product was selected over other slightly cheaper options because it has a feature essential for woodturning - the ability to lock the slider in a fixed position. This facility appeared to be absent from many other competing models. It is possible to set the calliper to a target diameter, lock the position, and even power it off whilst using this setting to turn to that diameter. The unit is thin enough to get into most profiles. The unit seems well made and accurately machined steel. From a zero setting, I extended the callipers to full width and then fully closed them. This showed a repeatability of around 0.02 mm which is more than sufficient for purpose. The unit came with a plastic case and 2 spare batteries, so all in all a good value buy.

This is well made with metal construction of the jaws and slide and taking commodity easy to find cr2032 batteries They give you 3 batteries with 1 installed which will arrive dead but the other 2 batteries have life It seems accurate for diy uses and measuring against various rulers etc the digital display seems accurate. The display is good size and the smaller font for decimal part is good to avoid misreading The supplied case is cheap and nasty and the clasps don’t close / secure properly and look like will break off. For diy home usage probably not so much to worry about First use was gritty so before using it I’d recommend cleaning down with alcohol and then add some silicone lubricant (add to tissue and wipe across). Without this step the scroll/jog wheel is pretty ineffective

Overall, a very good buy. I have a couple of digital calipers. A plastic one from Aldi or similar - pretty nasty. A cheap metal one, also built to a price and the battery is always dead unless you remember to take it out before putting it away. I liked the look of these oversized displays and they really are good. The build quality is good, bit not 'Mitotoyu' at this price. The only negative, which it barely deserves at this low price, is that it is a bit heavy in the hand and can feel rather like a heavy spanner rather than a precision tool. Like me, you probably get one of these calipers out once a month to take a measurement off something, then put it away. If so, this is great. It is accurate, the display is just incredible - very clear and bright - and the unit correctly zeros when closed, suggesting that there is virtually no play in the system. Bargain. If you use a caliper all day, spend the money and buy a beautifully balanced Mitotoyu from Japan. It will be over £100 or fake. Otherwise, you could do a lot worse than this tool.

Fast delivery, very good quality

Feels good quality, better than simiarly priced calipers I've bought before. The display is good, like the mm/inch and inch fractions units. Like the buttons, bit bigger than my previous calipers and better positions on the housing. The only problem I see with this is the large plastic window might easily get broken.

There are a lot of these on offer and I have only used it for a day so far. but i am extremely pleased I hose this one.

A nice caliper well made with good materials, mine arrived with a totally flat battery installed so I had to immediately use one of the spares provided. I think this was due to the auto on function and the caliper not being locked. The auto on and off function are not mentioned in the instructions. Altogether a nice and accurate tool for the money. The case is lower quality.
