Comparison between NEIKO 01401A & 01407A. They are both great calipers and for the price point, they are 5 stars. The 01407A has a smaller screen than the 01401A which I found easier to read with better contrast, The battery covers open differently and I found that the cover on the 01407A opens easier. This item has color buttons but for me, it was the bigger screen of the 01401A that won me over.

Had these for 7 years and still going strong. Only replaced the battery a few times too! Great buy for the price

This review is for NEIKO 01407A Electronic Digital Caliper | 0-6 Inches | Stainless Steel Construction with Large LCD Screen | Quick Change Button for Inch/Fraction/Millimeter Conversions. Let me start of by saying that if you need a gauge that is highly accurate and highly precise, you are going to need to shell out some good coin for something like a Mitutoyos.I picked up this NEIKO caliper, because I wanted something that was quality and not expensive. This caliper has been excellent so far. It is stainless steel, which was a must. I want it to last, and I wanted something more precise/accurate than plastic. I also wanted something digital for ease of use. This gauge is extremely easy to use. You can scroll through millimeters, inches, and fractions of inches. The display is also easy to read. This also comes with a nice storage case, one battery installed, and a spare battery. The owner's manual fits inside the case, and there is room for a spare battery in the case. The only thing I can say remotely negative is that the installed battery arrived dead, but the spare battery was good. I've already used this multiple times around the house for various things, and I wish I had bought one of these sooner. It has been extremely helpful for multiple projects.

I'm used to using my Mitutoyo 505-626 analog caliper. I figured "It's not the seventies any more, analog calipers went the way of bell bottoms" & decided to "upgrade" to digital. I read a bunch of reviews and watched a bunch of demo videos. I didn't want to spend a fortune, I already have a caliper, and new Mitutoyos are like $200 for a digital one. Analog Mitutoyos are $80! So, I bit the electron & bought a digital iGaging IP54. By the looks of it, I suspect other companies make this same caliper.The good: cheap; digital display makes it easy to read (although it FEELS weird, like going from an analog speedometer to a digital one, your brain has to interpret the numbers, it can't just "feel" the measurement); looks cool; comes with a snazzy, well-padded, although all-plastic, case; pretty accurate (see below); new.The bad: not as smooth as the Mitutoyo (I never considered the Mitutoyo "smooth," but it's WAY smoother than the iGaging); the box that houses the electronics is too large (it isn't svelte like the analog, its boxy in a big-boxy way); quality of materials and craftsmanship, including case, is a notch lower.Why it comes with a spare battery I don't know. I hope it doesn't eat batteries like I do Gummy-bears or we're in for a short honeymoon.I measured a stock piece of cylindrical material used to test and calibrate measuring tools. I guess it's 1/8". Both the analog Mitutoyo and the digital iGaging measured identically: .1265. Now, I KNOW 1/8"=.125, but maybe that is operator error, or maybe the temperature of the materials, but at least both machines were the same. I also tried measuring using different parts of the iGaging calipers' jaws and the reading was identical the entire length. I'm not sure how much more you could ask for, other than the buttery smoothness of the Mitutoyo, but for what it costs, I don't think this tool can be beat.

Now, this is not only something that works and does what you expect but more so it makes me want to find things to measure. Every opportunity that I get I try to use this to measure it, even it it doesn't always make the most sense! I love it! Comes with a spare battery too, which at the rate I'm using it is a grand old thing!

Honestly for the low price of $25 I didn't expect much out of these calipers. I figured they would be cheaply made with way to much play in the jaws or slide key... But they aren't! I couldn't believe how well built it was. There was absolutely no play in the slide even at full extension! I've had mitutoyos that had more slop. The measurements are dead on, it claims accuracy at +/- .001 and they weren't kidding. I used a .010 gage block as a reference measurement and the neiko calipers measured it at .0100 I mean if that's not dead on I don't know what is. The fractional readings are also an absolute bonus! finally no more wasting time having to convert a decimal value to a fractional number. Anyway with all those positives I can still point out a few negatives that should be mentioned... The slide itself has no play, with that being said it's so tight in the slot that you can feel it kind of dragging or just not sliding smoothly cause of the friction build up... No problem! Oil the slide with a few drops of air oil, clock oil, or a light gear oil. Do that once a week or monthly pending how often you use them and that slide moves like butter. The next negative is the buttons, they don't always register when you depress them... Again it's not really that big of a deal but if it doesn't work 100% everytime then regardless it's still a problem. The last and final issue is probably the biggest and this is going to really depend on the application your using these for... But the jaw tips are fairly thick, significantly thicker than the jaws on a set of mitutoyo this does limit your ability to get those jaws into super tight spaces. For instance if you need to determine the shank size on a small bolt say like a 1/4 - 20 the neiko calipers jaw tips will not fit between those threads. So in hindsight, that really does limit effectiveness. If you need that kind of flexibility and absolute precision obviously mitutoyo is the way to go... If you don't save yourself about $175 and buy a set of Neiko digital calipers! Last and final opinion... I was reading through several of the previous comments and alot of people seemed to be complaining about screen issues or zeroing issues.... Did yall ever happen to think "oh well maybe the battery is dead or dying"??? These calipers come with a battery already installed, and who knows how long they were sitting on a shelf before being shipped out. Batteries don't last forever folks! My best advice is when you get the calipers delivered first thing you need to do is just simply change out the battery with a new one. They take LR44 and will also accept SR44 batteries. So buy a set of neiko calipers today, go get you a pack of LR44 batteries tomorrow, stare out the window, and wait for that Amazon truck to roll on up!

Fácil de usar, saca de apuros, lo he comparado con calibradores manuales y la variación es muy poca, buena opción.

Very nicely made Caliper. The added bonus of it showing fractions has already been a handy feature I have used a few times.The bottom line is this, if it became non-functional through my own carelessness, I would buy another no-questionHOWEVER..... after two months of use I am finding the two font sized readout very annoying, Otherwise it has worked well but I do not understand why it was decided to make the second, third and fourth numbers after the decimal half the size . If someone only needs it for coarse measurement then having the first two numbers predominate makes sense but I personally find the two sized readout less than Ideal and I am looking at other calipers that show the readout all in full size

Good value, feels of good construction. Comes with very good quality strong case with padding and a spare battery. Accuracy is as specified and repeatable, occasionally find the zero point has drifted 0.01mm, but have found this with most digital Verniers I've used. Handy thread / drill size reference chart on the back. Very happy with the quality for the price.
