Wrong measurement? Remove the battery to reset device!
I was planning on returning these as the readout was wrong and showing half measurements (ie. at 50mm the display shown 25mm) and the mm/in button to switch between measurements wasn’t working. But after removing the battery and leaving it out for 30seconds and reinserting, it reset the device and all works well. For the price they’re really good. The ‘carbon fibre’ one (pretty sure it’s plastic) feels a bit delicate but the accuracy and ease of use are great after the battery reset.

Accurate, easy to use, and great value!
I bought the Kynup Digital Caliper for a few precision jobs around the workshop — mostly for woodworking and model builds — and I’ve been thoroughly impressed with it. For the price, it’s easily one of the best bits of measuring kit I’ve used in a while.The build quality is surprisingly solid. It’s made from stainless steel and feels reassuringly sturdy in the hand without being overly heavy. The slide movement is smooth and precise, and it holds its position nicely once you set it, so you’re not having to re-zero or second guess your readings.The large LCD screen is one of the standout features. It’s bright, easy to read, and gives results instantly in either mm, inches or fractions — a simple button press lets you switch units depending on what you need. As someone who works with both metric and imperial depending on the job, this flexibility is a big plus.Accuracy-wise, it’s been spot on. I’ve checked it against known reference objects and it’s come in dead accurate every time. The ability to zero the measurement at any point is also really handy when doing step measurements or internal comparisons.One small detail I really liked is the auto-off function. It saves battery life by shutting off when not in use, but switches back on quickly when you move it again. You also get a spare battery included, which is a thoughtful touch and something a lot of manufacturers overlook.It also comes with a durable plastic case that keeps the caliper protected and clean when not in use. Everything fits in snugly and it’s easy to store on a shelf or in a toolbox.Only small niggle is that it’s not waterproof, so you’ll want to avoid using it in damp or very dusty environments. That said, for general use it’s brilliant, and with a bit of care it’ll last for years.In summary, the Kynup Digital Caliper punches well above its weight. Accurate, reliable, easy to use and a great value tool that’s ideal for hobbyists, engineers, woodworkers or anyone needing precise measurements. Highly recommended!

Great little tool…
Well, on opening the cardboard sleeve and it’s blue plastic vacuum formed box you get to see it looking beautiful and shiny. There’s a couple of spare batteries, instruction manual, calliper tool and even a little screwdriver to be able to change the batteries with.The unit actually came with batteries in it which is great and providing a spare set is even better. I went for the slightly more expensive metal version as apposed to the cheaper plastic jawed one because I like to buy things that will hopefully last longer.Instruction manual is good, although it is pretty easy to understand, you can change the measuring unit via a little button, lock the device via a little top screw and it’s easy to operate the device for external, internal, depth measurements. Display was clear and easy to read and comes with off button to save its batteries.Instruction manual had a couple of mistakes in it, mentioned the locking screw was number 3 on the diagram and it’s actually number 2, (3 is the lcd display) and then also says to reset the unit by taking out the battery and it resets after 30 “secretary” which I presume should be “seconds” So it lost a star because of those mistakes, it’s the details that count.Unit feels well made, no issues with working it and hopefully it will serve us well for years to come.

Good display easy too read
Works very well good display easy too read also spare battery. Does feel a bit flimsy but i am not looking at using it to hammer a nail in our clamp something. It should be treated gently like any measuring equipment. Easy to use good product for the price.

Great Bit of Kit
I had always wondered, prior to being placed in a position where I needed such a device, why people own these things. As a motorbike owner, this little device has become invaluable to me, especially when adjusting the tension on my drive chain to ensure my rear wheel was aligned perfectly, right down to the millimetre. Brilliant job. I also have found it a God send for sizing specific bolts, again on my motorcycle, that had stripped threads and required replacing. This device allowed me to measure with great accuracy the specific dimensions of the bolts needed, as requested by specialist websites selling bolts of all shapes and sizes.It's very easy to use, the LCD display is clear and easily read, quality-wise it feels good in the hands, not at all flimsy, and has made so many tasks of maintenance on my bike a breeze. A very good purchase to my mind. Recommended.

Cheap and nasty
Cheap rubbish. Made of cheap plastic where the sliding mechanism is not smooth as expected for an item of this description. Even at sale price it’s not worth it. Accuracy is all over the place as well Don't bother

Cheap plastic, but it does the job.
I'm pretty sure they're stretching the definition of carbon-fibre (does black plastic count ?), but for less than £10, I guess you can't complain.Display is easy to read, and the measurement is "close enough" for most tasks. The case should protect it from most knocks, but I wouldn't leave it in a toolbox just in case.If you want scientific accuracy, you'll need to upgrade to something a little more robust, but this is perfectly adequate otherwise.
