    I have to trust measurements and after working with these for a while now I do. It hurt a bit to pay the price but no regrets!

    What is there to say? Mitutoyo is the gold standard. This was my first caliper, and I immediately checked its accuracy (perfect within the limits of what I can check). Ease of use is excellent: measuring inside, outside, or depth; metric or imperial; absolute or relative. The case is rugged and convenient. Unlike other calipers, this one doesnt devour batteries (solar obviously doesnt use batteries at all but does require that it sit out in strong light and is considerably more expensive). BE SURE TO BUY FROM AMAZON. Do NOT buy from a third party through Amazon. There are simply too many counterfeits floating around. Amazon is an authorized dealer and so your caliper will be genuine (other reviews on here will help you ensure authenticity when it arrives). This was the best deal I could find from a legit source. There are purists who want dial or vernier, and thats fine, but for a first caliper you want something that does imperial and metric and is a no-brainer to operate. My only critique is that Amazon doesnt make it easy to find genuine accessories. In my case, the shoulders for depth measurements. There are other very reputable brands out there, but for this product Mitutoyo is the default unless you have some compelling reason to grab something else.

    I seen in other reviews about getting counterfeits. When you first get yours. Check YouTube videos. The counterfeits are easy to spot. Mine is legit thankfully.

    I work at a machining shop where I have to get thousandths quite often-while its obvious that its accuracy is at its highest by being unworn, every time I zeroed with the jaws shut, it held a perfect zero no matter how hard I tried to press it together. Likewise, if performing the same measurement and done the same way, the results matched to the 5 tenths with no hesitation. Came with quite the little calibration test sheet, which was nice for the guys who calibrate the tools at the shop. Also, while its just a feel thing, it glides when measuring. Its the smoothest set of digital calipers Ive handled. While the jaws arent the fancy super-hardened steel some other options have, they do very well and show no sign of problems. Very happy with them, especially knowing I dont have to try to find one of the regular shop calipers for ten minutes.

    This is a highly accurate tool and the best quality. Except nothing but the best. That is what you get with this item.

    I love these calipers. These are accurate and come in a solid case for storage. Ive made the mistake of buying cheap calipers in the past and finally I did the right thing and bought a pair of these Mitutoyos. Japanese quality!

    You just cant beat the quality and performance of Mitutoyo Id say theres only one other brand as good and thats Starrett. The precision on these are incredible theyre accurate to less than .001 and the battery included literally lasts a year maybe more if you are a machinist working with jobs that have tight tolerances then these are for you, their worth every penny. Just be aware these calipers are VERY sensitive particularly the jaws, just one drop on a hard surface will throw these things off by a couple thousands or so, so be very careful if you take good care of these theyll last you a lifetime youll be a very satisfied customer.

    I was concerned about receiving a counterfeit Mitutoyo caliper after reading so many reviews but I can tell you that these are genuine Mitutoyo. I used the same type for years as a machinist. Dont mess with cheap knock-offs. Buy these.
