These calipers are exactly what I needed. They haven't gotten loose over time, as lesser calipers are prone to do, and the pins are also sharp and actually come together into a point (again, lower quality calipers often have issues with that). Both of the previous qualities ensure that my measuring is always accurate.
Again, a wonderful product at a good price.

I'm still learning about EKG/ECG so I like having these calipers on me. It's easy to hold compare to the cheaper ones that I found on my hospital floor. It stops at a precise angle and doesn't move when I compare the boxes. I'm a picky person about the equipment i use and they work fine.

All of the calipers we have at work totally stink and I got fed up and bought these for myself. I am so glad that I did. These calipers stay in the position you put them in, and the cover is quite nice so that you don't poke holes in all the other stuff in your nursing bag. Affordable and of nice quality.

Use mine many times every day. High quality; best I have ever used during my 25+ years in medicine. Very worthy.

The calipers themselves are great. I've had mine for over a year and a half and has not fallen apart, it doesn't get loose... and what else can you say about calipers? They are simple tools, as long as they are sturdy, which these are.
The problem is the overall design is not very well suited for a coat/shirt pocket. The cover that comes with it is loose and will come off easily or just fall off, exposing the sharp points. And since the calipers are small and don't have a stable means of hooking onto your pocket, it falls into the pocket, from where you have to fish it out when needed. And when you do, watch out for the cover coming off and drawing blood from either your finger or your chest wall. Plus its a pain to pull it out when you have other stuff in your pocket... And for those who care about appearances (it does make a difference on rounds you know) it looks way goofy on rounds when the attending is trying to fish out calipers from their pocket...

I bought this pair of Calipers when I was in medic class. They are inexpensive, very helpful in learning to interpret EKG's and are great quality. I still use them from time to time as needed. I would definatly recommend these.

Got this for my intern boyfriend and he really likes it. Its not cheap feeling. Must have for intern year.

I was looking for something sturdy and accurate...finally I got one. Really good finish with accurate points. Cap works good to prevent my apron going porous. Arrived in 2 days even after I order regular shipping. Great product. Full marks.

These are great calipers to use for analyzing EKG strips. They're well-built, easy to carry, and seem to be very durable.

This is a well made caliper. The arms are firm and don't slip easy. It has a nice cap to protect your shirt or white coat pocket. It has a solid build feel. Overall, I am pleased with it.
