WEN 10761 Electronic 6.1-Inch Digital Caliper with LCD Readout and Storage Case

I like it.. think it's a great value for 10-bucks and some change. I read a few reviews commenting on it being plastic effecting it's accuracy and I didn't have that experience at all. It is made of some type of plastic but its fiber reinforced or something.. light but of good quality and made with tight precise tolorences. No play or wiggle in the moving parts. I feel its accurate as I have a Harbor Freight metal one that often needs to be zeroed where as this one I calibrated or zeroed once and it's stayed dead zero after using and turning off and on four or five times in the few days I've had it. Also thought I would be bothered by it not having the rolling thumb wheel that most have but it has just the right amount of resistance when sliding that it feels controlled in use. Also it's nice that for this price it came with a case but even better is it taking the common 2032 batteries that everything takes and I keep on hand.. rifle scopes, garage opener, bathroom scales, key fobs.. etc. Another thing helpfull to me is having the fraction unit of measurement included with decimal and mm. Handy for woodworking.One thing that drove me crazy that I found an easy fix for is it rattled around inside the case to the point it seemed to be turning it on (it auto turns on when you start using it). Also the tiny screwdriver included for the battery just tumbles around all over inside.So.. here's the tip --If you look in the lid theres two small post one at each end that holds it in place when closed.. although way to loosly. If you cut three pieces of rubber 1/4 fuel line exactly 5/8" long, pushing one over each of the post adds just enough length for a rubber bumper to hold it in place with no movement when closed. You just have to slide it all the way to the right when laying it in the case. The third piece slid over the screwdriver handle makes it much easier to use (bigger and grippier) and it'll wedge in the oval storage area in front. See my pic if interested, it shows what I did.Also worth mentioning, if not noticed, there's a clear protective film on the screen that can be peeled off making the read out cleaner and sharper when reading.Good Value.. does what you bought it for well. I say its a good buy.

Works great for the price and does everything I needed to do

Not crazy about the plastic body. I prefer the metal for longevity. But for the price and the ability to chuck this around the shop I can't really complain. As with most even the best these drift a little and require Zero out from time to time. Love the large display. Hate the protective case. It's junk. Battery life dunno not used it much yet. I have one that turns on at the slightest bump. Runs the battery down and it is never ready to use. Hopefully this WEN doesn't have this quirk. I have no intention of playing a mission impossible handling these with kid gloves hoping it doesn't activate and destroy itself in 2 min.

Product as described, arrived on time, no damages, easy to do business with, great seller.

Battery installation was easy. Turned on the device, pressed the zero function, selected the units in decimal inches, fractional inches or metric. Digital screen is easy to read and the unit is made of non metallic carbon fiber. Comes in a plastic case. Great value.

it needs to be aluminum. the reading isn't accurate bc it changes too much based on the pressure you hold on it. Even zeroing the calipers is difficult bc they the plastic gives based on how tight you press.

Arrived quick and in good shape

best plastic caliper out there in this price range. I was excited to find an inexpensive one with display in fractions. most of the plastic options just do decimals and mm. The problem for me is when it is in fraction mode it shows readings all the way down to 1/128ths. Nobody knows what 79/128ths is in fractions, lol. might as well just use decimals if you are doing that. What I would really like is for it to display fractions that are rounded to the nearest 1/16", or at least 1/32"
