I purchased this item 5-6 years ago. I use it once a year during grape harvest to take test samples of machine picked grapes and it has been accurate to .1 of a brix on every load that was tested. Taking your crop to a market that requires certain sugar standards in order to pass, this has been a highly valuable instrument and more than pays for itself after one season. Yes, I highly recommend this product, it has been extremely accurate in regards to the more expensive commercial type digital refractometers.

I use this refractometer for hard apple cider and wine making. Very simple to use, pretty accurate (don't expect to be able to read to the tenth of a Brix) and comes in a good box convenient to carry and protect the device.
Highly recommended for the price.

This is an easy product to review. It was inexpensive to buy and it works. I've had it about 6 years now and I've "trained" lots of people to use it. Training takes about 3-5 seconds. The carry case does not close. It never did, but the refractometer works great.

I highly recommend this product to people who need to check sugar level in grapes to make wine by itself at home. You can check sugar level in wine, when it finishes boiling or during boiling. It works great!!!
