Title: I like this tool..
Review: Although I didn't buy it at Amazon, and paid quite a bit more for some time (years) ago, I've been very pleased with this instrument.Mine is stamped "Made in Switzerland", and although parts are plastic, the quality is quite good. I like the long battery life, it is very easy on batteries, and access to the battery is simple. The display doesn't automatically time out and turn off, but that doesn't seem to be a problem.The caliper reads in millimeters (.1 mm) or inches (.001 in), it doesn't feature fractional inches like some of the newer ones. When powered on, it does zero itself, which may irritate some users.I have no complaints with consistency of zeroing and reading accuracy, and in spite of what some others have said, I like the feel of it. It operates smoothly and precisely; it's a quality mechanical mechanism.There are times I might like it to be longer than 6 inches, or have the fractional inch reading, but otherwise I recommend it highly, considering its low price.
