I have purchased several guitar/violin tuners, but this one is the best bu a long way. And the temperature/humidity function is really nice to have as well. I even use it to check the tuning on my flute.

This tuner is easy to use and have an thermo/hygro meter to help for maintaining violin. Compact, but have most functions for violin

This tool has become indispensible and is easy to use. I wish I had bought it a year ago.

This device so far seems to function quite properly, once you figure out how to operate its buttons. Despite implying a relatively low-complexity cognitive interface, this tuner provides a perfect example of not-user-centered and not-user-friendly product design. For example, you have to struggle for some time with its buttons to finally discover where you turn the thing off. You are obliged to learn and to memorize its idiosyncratic logic. The sequence of buttons is also counter-intuitive. There are different functions (whose mutual association is not logical, nor intuitive) which, however, share the same physical buttons. Why have a poor, frustrating design, when good design is not any more expensive to manufacture?
