Bought to measure wood to make additions to my wooden workshop. Ok for jobs where absolute accuracy isn’t required, probably accurate to 2-3mm. If you want a quality accurate tool this isn’t for you. Still have given it 4 stars as it’s pretty good value.

Shocking quality, no fine adjustment thumb roller, the locking screw doesn't work, mechanism has tons of play in it, making it incredibly difficult to take a reading. Save your money and buy a decent set of calipers.

My caliper is now 2 years or so old gets used several times a week even more in summer . It's etched accurately & nothing slops about ..checked it with M &W test pieces at 1 & 2 " , 20 & 50 mm . So pleased at that ....as good calipers tend to be very expensive . Found the edges were very square and uncomfortable to hold ., it felt a bit gritty & catching because of the sharp edges . So I lightly rubbed them all a couple of times with a fine wet & dry , washed it off several times in soapy hot water then rinsed & dried it & WD 40 lubricated it .. jobs a good'un Drilled a 6 mm hole in the head to allow me to hang it up to the side of my lathe out of harms way when not being used .. it drills well with a sharpened HSS twist drill . Beware that if you are grinding the microscopic dust generated can land on the calliper and cause it to get gritty ..if you're going to grind stuff take it down and put it in a drawer till the grinding dust settles & gets vacuumed up . It benefits from a bi monthly wd40 clean & re-lube . Read full review

Not your precision instrument that you would use to design the next mars rover, but perfectly fine for my hobby needs. You get what you pay for applies here too.

Tiny screws that regulate the tension had fallen out into packaging. Had to replace. Not very smooth action at all. And jaws of caliper quite floppy - not aligning.
