Very streamlined and easy to use shopping flow. I was thinking about getting a good oscilloscope for some time, at this price it was an easy decision.

I found the products I wanted, at fair prices, however was surprised by no free shipping. Not that I care to pay for shipping, but they advertised free shipping on orders over $99, perhaps the site should be updated.

Product Choice

I wanted some rudimentary tools for PCB re work

Easy ordering process, but your shipping seems much higher than other companies charge. For example, a recent Digi-Key order cost me $7.99 to ship UPS Ground. Make that cost *actual* shipping and your business will increase dramatically.

It is replacing the exact same item that just died on me.

A workhorse

It just works. Nothing fancy and the price reflects that, but it's a workhorse. This is the third of these that I've owned. They last about 5 years then mysteriously stop working. Buy extra handles, they burn up about once a year.

Why Trust Verified Reviews?

Verified Reviews are real, authentic reviews collected from actual paying customers, using Shopper Approved's Verified Review Platform. When reviews are Verified by Shopper Approved, you know that you can trust them to make better buying decisions.

Unverified Reviews on the other hand, are reviews collected by Open Review platforms that allow anyone to leave a review, without any validation or proof of purchase. Unfortunately, most reviews you read online are Unverified Reviews, and can't be trusted.

As a consumer, here's how you can tell the difference:

Verified Reviews from Verified Review Platforms like Shopper Approved, have much higher review counts and higher overall Star ratings, because they attempt to collect reviews from every single paying customer.

Unverified Reviews from Open Review Platforms, tend to have much lower review counts and more negative Star ratings, because people with bad experiences are primarily those who leave reviews. This often creates a misleading, inaccurate portrayal of a companies true reputation.

So, when searching for Verified Reviews, look for the name you know you can trust. Shopper Approved.
