Note: Please insert one AA battery for continuous and accurate usage.

Good Value for a basic four function desk calculator
This calculator was exactly what I was looking for for my home office. Using the calculator on my phone was endlessly frustrating, and I only need to do the four basic functions. I was looking for an inexpensive desk top calculator that would be easy to use, easy to see the display, and of good quality. This product seems to have answered all of these simple requirements, although the display is not back-lit, so in poor light you will have difficulty seeing the numbers.

Wobbles and doesn't hold up well
I've had this one for 2 years now, and it misses numbers, therefore not reliable. I have to spend more time ensuring the correct answer, which isn't good. The calculator also wobbles every time I push a key. Maybe that has something to do with the mechanism not being consistent? Not recommended.

Believe it or not, the totals were incorrect.
All I wanted was a simple desktop calculator. The last one I had was purchased through Amazon and was a Staples brand. It worked great.This one appeared the same; simple.I started getting odd totals.First I thought it was just me, but then after I entered figures very deliberately and carefully, I would still get odd, incorrect totals.Not all the time, but often. (Actually once is too much).I had several others use it and they had the same problems.Weird?I've never had a calculator NOT be accurate.Maybe it's a Russian spy hidden inside?

Better than expected
I bought this calculator to take with me to auction school. I was wanting a cheap alternative to the daily calculator I use in my office. Turns out this is a much better calculator than what I was expecting. In fact, this is my new daily calculator. Love this thing. Perfect size. Buttons feels balanced and responsive and I like the angle that it sits when I have it in front of me. No more glare from the overhead lights. Thinking about ordering another for the shop floor. Highly recommended

Replaced a 33+ year old TI calculator with with the Helect H1001
I had an old TI desktop calculator that lasted 33+ years (amazing). I needed a replacement and did not want to spend a fortune and this one was a great replacement. It is much lighter than my old calculator and its buttons that are easy to push and very visible, works on solar (you can add a battery as well, if needed - it only needs a single AAA battery), and it is still a great size for a desktop calculator. I highly recommend it.

Simple, perfect
It wouldn't seem like there's much to a calculator, but if you've ever used one with bad buttons or a dim display you'll appreciate this one.It's sturdy, looks good, with big buttons/keys. Those keys are perfect with just the right amount of feedback and spacing. The replaceable AA battery is a great touch, since a lot of similar calculators either rely solely on solar or require some obscure watch battery you'll never remember to buy.

Not worth the cheap price.
It arrived with a user guide for a simpler standard Caliper model. Emailed their support and they sent a correct PDF, but it nothing more than labeling the keys with no instructions at all for MU (margin markup) and GT (General Total) buttons. They all suggested I search Google or Youtube for videos explaining the functions. Only a few and most were in foreign language. None any help. The other basic functions work - so far - and that's most all that I do.

Stopped working.
If I could give this product 0 stars I would. I saw all the great reviews and decided to purchase this product but it definitely did not meet expectations. When I first bought it it worked just fine but after a couple of weeks it stopped functioning correctly. Some of the numbers on the screen do not show up completely. For example if I put an 8 it'll show up as a 3. so definitely cannot use this anymore.

If you are after non scientific calculator this is perfect. I brought it as in AAT exams you are allowed only non scientific calculator. I like the arrow key which is below off switch as you can cancel single digit or whole digit if you have typed it wrong, it saves lot of time as u dont have to recalculate the whole amount again. Switches are big enough so you don't press other key accidentally.

Outstanding Value Calculator
If my memory serves me correctly, I bought my first personal calculator in the early '70s, which now seems remarkable considering today's advances in technology. Since then, I've had any number of calculators but, without doubt, this is the best I've ever bought and I can understand why Amazon rates it so highly.The display is very clear - the digits are black - and what I particularly like is that there are separate 'on' and 'off' buttons. I'd have no hesitation in recommending this desk calculator to a prospective purchaser.

Excellent Desktop Calculator
Initially I thought it might be a little small compared with my other large calculator, but actually it’s just right. A large clear display with big digits. Not too many functions cluttering up the buttons, which are huge and feel descicive in use.Highly recommended.

... sufficiently large that it enables the keys to be easily read and operated singly
This compact calculator is sufficiently large that it enables the keys to be easily read and operated singly, yet small enough that it does not take up too much space on a desk worktop or similar. In contrast with many pocket calculators the icons on the keys are well indented and should not become obliterated by heavy and/or prolonged use. In addition the display window is easy to read.

Good calculator
Decent sized desk calculator, I like the colour.The solar panel function alone is not enough to power the calculator in my office, but works fine with the battery in.Good product, for an amazing price.
