Franklin Electronic Publishers SA-209 Spelling Ace, Thesaurus, Timer, and SAT Word List

Works great. Easy to use, easier than logging onto computer or looking up a word in the dictionary for those that still use dictionaries.

great little tool. I've used it many times when those simple words just didn't look right & with options it solves the tough ones too. I'm sure there are others with more features but this one did me just fine..

Please do not waste your money on this item, what I received was used, it had writing on the back, the batteries were installed and had leaked inside, it took me ten minutes to clean and remove them, after installing new batteries, it would not work.

Bigger than thought nice

I purchase one of these for my son after reading all of the great reviews. He loved it, but it stopped working after one week. You could only see the letters if you held the checker at a certain angle, otherwise you could only see rectangles where the letters should be. We returned it for a replacement and the same thing happened the second day we used it. This is for the model SA-209. I don't know if it is a quirk with this model or not. We may try our luck with a different model as it was very helpful on the few days that we could use it.

The Franklin SA-209 Desktop Spelling Ace was delivered in good condition and on time. After using for a couple of weeks, I find it is not as comprehensive as I thought it would be. It is limited in what it can do. It's ok, but not what I was expecting.

This is great. It does what it says, does it well, and I've had no problems.The lid is a tad on the flimsy side, but nothing horrible.

I finally had to buy a new speller, the one I had was15yrs old, my wife says try to get one with bigger letters on it, well looking at word spellers, I found a few, which one to buy, let me see. We had our Franklin for 15yrs, lets go with another one. Plus this model has the larger buttons { yes we are over 65 yrs old}, and this feature alone is great. The screen is also large, and it has a nice clear attached cover to protect the unit. My wife said I made a great choice buying the Franklin SA309. Oh yes, the price was excellent and we did get our monies worth. A great product at a greater price. Enjoy !!
