A few tuners can set up 432Hz only! This one is perfect!

Good metro-tuner but not very loud

Well made with nice matt finish, big, very clear and backlit display.

The tuner is sensitive to soft sounds and precise enough.

The device is easy to use but not too loud, unfortunately the speaker is on its back.

Might be too quiet for you if you play the rhythm guitar or a loud flute.

Exceptional

I bought it mainly for the metronome. I've been using a much more expensive tuner for the last two years. I'm keeping this as the main, so easy to use.

Nicely working and affordable tuner/metronome

Ordered this more than 5 years ago and it works well. I'm using it at home, taking along to rehearsal and gigs, never had any issues.

Pros:

- small, not take much space

- backlit helps you tune up even on stage while there's no light

- metronome might be useful for rehearsals

- affordable

Cons:

- none

I can't ask for more for that price

Good tuner and metronome.

I use the tuner first of all to tune my daughter's ukulele. Nowadays you can find tuners in almost all guitar processors and digital/solid state amps, so I use it for guitar very rare.

The tuner is pretty accurate, can be used for drop tunings. Display is good. I doubt you can find something better for this price.

Great feature is very versatile metronome. It might be the best metronome I've ever seen.

Pros:

Good for acoustic instruments.

Excellent metronome.

Cons:

Bypass is active.

Don't connect your guitar to an amps through the tuner, ordinary humbucker makes it clip.

Earphones output is mono.

Excellent Tuner for the Price

This is easy to use chromatic tuner. It has many features and can be used to tune different string instruments. There is a built in microphone which I usually use to tune my guitars. There's also an analog on a loose cable that you can attach to your instrument for more precise tuning. The sensor is not very robust but I hardly ever use it. The standalone device is good enough. I would recommend due to the number of features (metronome incl.) and the low price of the device.

Quality at a great price.

I bought this to tune an electric guitar and check/set the intonation when I get round to it.

It's got far more features than I ever see myself using, which is a good position to be in really.

Fantastically accurate, sensing the tiniest of adjustments.

I feel that it could do with a longer cable for the clip attachment, although the length it does have isn't a big issue, just than longer would provide more convenience.

Speaking about the clip on attachment: it works well, having checked it on an acoustic guitar against another clip-on tuner.

Overall a great little tuner, especially for the price. I did check around and this is a great deal.

I can't believe how many things this little device does for the price. Simple to use and very clear graphics. Great value.

Cheap tuner that works well enough for home use

Feels like the tuner is pretty accurate (the guitar sounds in tune when playing with backing tracks), but it uses quite a bit of time to decide what it hears. Wouldn't use it live, but for a cheap tuner to have on the desk at home, it works well enough.

Feature rich and easy to use, and the mic is sensitive enough to tune electric guitars without cord, so that is nice.

Good product

Good product, do the job but not so very intuitive to use when you have to change from the tuner to the click for example. Good quality, polyvalent product and great price!

best bang for your buck

works perfectly fine, the price point is just great, nothing similar out there in this price range

I did not understand how to make it work in passthrough mode, but that was not crucial fo me anyways. Maybe this should be addressed in the manual

Awesome, 100% recommended

Great purchase. I bought it for the tuner, was pleasantly suprised to discover it's also a metronome. Comes with the cable to connect the instrument to the tuner, and the batteries. The size is perfect for carrying it around and instructions are very intuitive. Best tuner I've ever had!

Tested

Using it mainly at home. Used it on electric 6 string electric and acoustic guitar, 5 string jazz bass and even on a Portuguese guitar. Works every time. Nice features for practice also with the metronome and all. Maybe it's just me, but it would be cool if it was made from metal, never dropped it but does not seem very hard to break.

nice product

Only a click in the left headphone.

nice look and feel. usefull different measures, tuner is ok.

Would be a nice feature to send the click via the out trough the guitar amp and eliminate the need for a headphone. Also nice for band practice.

Overall good price/value
