I've purchased one prior and liked it based on my need/work.
It is affordable, small/compact design, has a (belt/pocket) clip, measures most of the various things I encounter and lastly has a digital guage with what I recall is fraction/decimal inches/Metric. Also comes with a plastic hard case but for my needs I did not need it.
Downside is that it is mostly plastic, has no depth guage, No locking screw (for locking in your measurment, but then again eventually it wouldn't work out because of the wear and tear on the plastic body)
Neutral feedback. It is not water resistant nor that I recall it being described so, but I did not expect it to be so either. This is the reason for me for buying another one is becuase heavy rain exposure had damaged mine. But the latest one I've purchased was defective and had it returned, the bottom left of the digital screen wasn't working and could not tell what measurment was being indeicated. Cause I rely heavily on that screen. Planning to purchase one in near future.

After zeroing out before use, it doesn't go back to zero after you take a measurement. I needed exact measurements. Felt I couldn't trust readouts.

Not even worth a chance
The device is inaccurate. After zeroing the device, measuring something and moving the calipers back to the 0 position, the unit reads a non-zero result. This should not be the case if the unit is measuring accurately. Don't waste your time/money.
