good product for home June 21, 2008
this tool was easy to use and provided accurate results. for the price it is a perfect tool for the DIY mechanic who doesn't want to empty his or her pockets for a snap-on tool when it won't get used that often.
Super simple, super fast July 14, 2007

This product does exactly what it should. It measures the amount of compression that your cylinder can sustain, and it does it with enough accuracy and repeatability that you can trust it.
It is only missing a handy carry case, but if you approach the packaging in the right manner, you can use that to store your tester, and keep it in reasonably good shape. Of course, I realized this after I tore into the packaging with all of the skill and dexterity of a six year old boy with 4 cups of hot chocolate in him on Christmas morning.
I purchased this unit because it has the adapter for small engines, those with a 10mm sparkplug hole. It has it, and it works. What more could you ask for?
Not bad Not great November 14, 2006

Does what it is supposed to do. Face of gauge scratched from packaging, but not to the point it needed to be returned. For the money it does the job for the occasional test. Nice having the adapters for the various sized plugs
