Quality was very good!
AMAZING!
Edward✓ Verified Purchase•July 23, 2023
Didn't think I was going to find calipers that were the quality of tools made as good as my father's. Very impressed. To own well made tools that are precise, accurate, and last you need to spend some money. I feel that I got a great tool and didn't spend that much money.
Great caliper, less than great case for the MSRP

Bottom line up top; Great caliper that could use a better padded case. Nothing a hot glue gun and some scrap foam can't fix.
I use my Brown & Sharpe for many simple measurements around the workbench and it has given me consistent performance. I don't have the ability to double check the measurements with any advanced calibration equipment, but I feel confident with it's readings. The adjustment wheel is sturdy and doesn't slip, but it isn't stiff or hard to use. You could say it's just like Baby Bear's bed; it's just right. Had I spent full price for this dial caliper, I would have been a bit dismayed by their use of a flimsy plastic case with horrible latches that do not truly stay latched. Alas, I took the gamble, bought it used, and I feel like a bandit for the deal that I got (but let's just keep that between us).

Best made all-around

The B&S calipers are the best made calipers I've found. I dial is super easy to read and you never have to worry about a dead battery :)
Handle with more care next time please.

Very accurate, came fast and looks exactly like I would have bought from a Swift tools store except a little more cheaper price. However when I opened the box to see the dial face had already been cracked and close to a radius lenght, I wasn't impressed with the care that was taken before it got to my doorstep. Still a tool is a tool and I always keep checking the readings daily to make sure it's still true.
