Ok, does it work for it's intended purposes, yes, but it looks nothing like the advertised image.
Shame on the seller for false advertising, Shame on Amazon for allowing this. I didn't read the reviews before hand and I should have...

Received a Black and White hard to read Hydrometer, Purchased a Color coded easy to read Hydrometer.

I ordered this, because I had the same exact hydrometer in the picture, which is great. Instead, I got a cheaper quality one that works, nonetheless it's not the one in the picture.

This is a typical, accurate, well-made triplescale hydrometer that is useful in home brewing. Item came as expected, however, please note that this does not come with a hydrometer test tube which needs to to be purchased separately if this is going to be of any use to you. Most other hydrometers are packaged in tubes that can double as test tubes, but this one comes in a 2-piece, square plastic container unsuitable for testing samples.

The color on the scale enables easy and accurate readings which is a nice bonus. Product comes with directions including a small table useful for temperature adjustments when taking a reading. Overall, it's a quality hydrometer and it earned my recommendation.

The length of the hydrometer is about 10 3/4 inches, and the widest part of the hydrometer is about .6 inches (circumference was 2 inches). You will probably need at least a 12 inch test tube. It is weighed with lead shot which is kept at the bottom with what looks like rubber. It will test all beers and wine and shows normal ranges for each (normal SG of wine, desert wine, beer, and their corresponding FGs) on the paper inside the tube.

I don't know why everyone is fuming about not receiving one that has a colored paper inside the tube, you have to look really closely at the markers to tell the precise gravity readings anyway, so it being colored doesn't factor into anything but cosmetics. It didn't really matter to me because I received one WITH the colored markers. I ordered it March 4, 2014.

Of course, you should check with distilled water to see if there is a fault, which I haven't done yet, and apply that to your readings. Make sure the temperature you take your readings at are adjusted using an online gravity adjustment calculator.

I only give it 4 stars instead of 5 because I haven't tested it yet, but everything looks good!

Update: March 15, 2014: I tested it in a 12 inch test jar with distilled water, and, even at the right temperature it measured about .002 degrees higher than it should. No big deal though! I was going to take the OG of my brew water (with included minerals, like gypsum) anyway and use that to gauge my SG for when I finally place it in the primary. Upping the star count to 5 cause it is everything I expected of a hydrometer, even with a slight SLIGHT fault.

Ordered 2 hydrometers when I broke one mid-brew. This, and the cheap $7 one.

I got 2 of the exact same black and white cheap models, in identical packaging. But the one that costed more (this one) is BROKEN!

Glad I got a backup, just thought it would get to sit on a shelf for a day or 60 first.

Reads 1.0 on pure water as it should, but the item I got is black and white without color coding.

I got this to replace my last hydrometer which I dropped. Checked its calibration in distilled water at 68F. Mine is off as it reads 1.002. No big deal. The other issue I have is that is is not correctly centered and always slopes slightly in the sample jar. I summary I am looking for a better one. I guess you get what you pay for. Overall a usable hydrometer but one that does not provide the accuracy I need. I was surprised to see it is calibrated at 68F and not 60F like my last hydrometer and my refractometer.
