I have only 2 relatively negative comments. Sometimes you do not get any reading form the meter, or shows only 0000. In some occations, this might be deceiving, you probably think you are reading 0 and actually have something other than 0. I realized this once I knew a 0 reading was not possible. Then I turn it off and switched back on and had the correct reading. You have to turn the multimeter off and back on again in order to make it work. It is as if it resets itself and works fine again.
The other minor thing is plastic housing in the upper part in the side, does not match perfectly the lower side. Kind of low quality housing for a really good meter. It is heavy though, but it is kind of good feeling. Being heavy makes it feel as higher quality. It is sturdy as well, but plastic is hard plastic, not rubber like.
Auto range works great and very sensible. It takes a while to getting used to switching to desired range and back to autorange, but just a matter of use.
All and all, it is excellent for what it costs. Really happy about it.
I am not an electrician, but I needed a meter for general household use and specifically to test some audio power cables I was building. I have only used it so far to check continuity on the power cables, capacitance on some interconnects and voltage from a few home outlets. The large display screen is easy to read and I really like the input terminal ports that light up to designate proper connections depending on the selection made with the rotary switch. Everything feels solid and well made.
So far, everything works like a charm. I might have to order a set of alligator clip test leads to make it easier to measure smaller handheld objects.
I am very happy with this unit and would highly recommend it to anyone needing a household digital multimeter.
I had the same issue as a few other reviewers where turning the selector dial sometimes didn't make the meter power on, and sometimes it would give me an OL reading when measuring a battery voltage (just for example - may do this with other functions too). I just replaced the 3 included el-cheapo AAA batteries with a set of fresh alkaline AAA's and it works fine now.
Build quality is not amazing, the kick stand is too narrow, the leads could be longer, it didn't come with a case, it registers DC mV when not connected to anything, etc. But it also measures to within 2 thousandths of a DC volt +/- of my Fluke 179 every time.
My dad ordered one yesterday and I'm ordering another just to keep in the car. For ~$25 this is a great meter.

Se los recomiendo a los estudiantes un poco experimentados de Electricidad y electrónica, así como también a personas que sean fanáticas de la electricidad o tengan algún taller donde ocupan realizar mediciones eléctricas precisas. Excelente producto 100% recomendable.
La entrega fue muy rápida a pesar que venia desde Estados unidos. Gracias.
