Product Description
When you require exact measuring, you reach for a caliper. But an accurate measurement is meaningless if you can't read it accurately. This caliper takes an essential tool into the 21st century with an extra-large LCD digital readout for exact internal and outside measurements accurate to .001". Instantly converts from SAE or Metric, the display can be zeroed at any point on the slide. Machine-grooved thumb-roll mechanism and position lock for sure adjustment. Hardened stainless steel shaft with depth-measurement probe, precision ground jaws. On-off switch with auto-off, two long-life batteries included (one spare).

Exceptional value July 9, 2010

This appears to be as good quality as the Mitutoyos and Starrets I've used. I have not done a calibration over the full range of the instrument but I have checked against standards in the 1 to 2 inch range and it dead on. Since I've only had this a few weeks I can't comment on long term reliability. I never thought to check the metric scale.Mitutoyo 505-717, Dial Caliper, 0 - 6 X .001, .200 per Rev., White FaceStarrett 799A-6/150 Electronic Caliper with Plastic Case, 0-to-6-Inch/0-to-150mm Range
Ordered two units after reading others' reviews July 7, 2010

The unit comes with a pre-installed battery, plus one extra inside the packaging. Upon initial turn-on, my caliper requires a reset at the zero read-out. There's an easy button for that. Afterward, I've proceeded to measure several coins. Results are satisfactory.
accurate and compact June 23, 2010

I am a quality control technician. I haven't had a chance to calibrate it but it says it has already been calibrated and will be trying that shortly with a standard. Anyway, as of now, I highly recommend this product. I got this product for the lab with some doubt in mind. However, for the price, I felt that I couldn't go wrong and I was correct in my assessment. This product was delivered as promised and worked as promised as well. I have had this one for more than a month now and seems to be working well so far.
 Fine For the Price But One Annoying Flaw June 9, 2010

These are fine calipers for the price and the merchant had the item at my door day after next. I would do business with Copperstate Industrial again in a heartbeat. Amazon though, seems to have issues with accurate representation of products provided by their "Fulfillment" merchants; this is not the first time this has happened to me in that the item I received was not what I was expecting. These calipers are fine for most things, if a little rough on the slide, but I will be measuring routinely to the 1/1000'th of an inch and the display is, simply put, annoying for this. I do hundreds of measurements a day and I don't need the added difficulty of dealing with tiny numbers behind large ones when it's the tiny ones that matter most. This is one of those design ideas that simply leaves me scratching my head and wondering who it was that said, "Yeah, that's a great idea! Make the most important digits the hardest to read!!" Amazon lists them as having an "Extra Large Display" and I find this description a little less than accurate (see my picture). For most people this display issue probably isn't an issue and for the price these calipers are pretty nice and will serve admirably.
In short, though, I've tossed these calipers in the bottom drawer and ordered different ones with a display that better suits my need's.
Having researched this further, I'm now wondering now if what I was sent were these calipers instead of the ones pictured:

Those match exactly what I was shipped...
