   Excellent value for the money
   n

   This unit was an unexpected suprise. I needed an inexpensive dial indicator for automotive use occasionally at home, and ordered this one. It is accurate, well built, and far exceeded my expectations for this price. I will be looking to Grizzly again for more hand tools. Thank you.n

   Clamp broke after minimal use …Griz customer service awesome
   n

   One of the clamps broke after pretty minimal use. Contacted Griz and they got it corrected immediately, prompt and courteous customer service. Replacement clamp has worked fine.

   Grizzly Mechanical Dial Indicator
   n

   This “last word” indicator is an old-fashion mechanical unit. It works fairly well. I would not select it for everyday use in a busy shop, but for my home shop where it will see only mild use it is OK. I checked accuracy against thickness gages (leaf-type, for setting clearances) at .002, .005, .010, and .020, and it was quite good. The plastic case is reasonably sturdy.

   Useful but very delicate
   n

   Like others I find the indicator highly useful. The mountn
   is not quite as easy to use as I might like, but it’s adequate.n

   The main thing I didn’t realize is that the mounting hardware is very delicate—like another reviewer, I broke mine just by trying to tighten the indicator mount.n

   Grizzly customer service was just OK: both the part and the larger assembly were back ordered, so they charged me for another whole unit and will refund me when I return the broken unit. But it looks like I’ll be out shipping one way, and I had to spend 30 minutes on the phone with customer service—a call I paid for.n

   Buy the tool, but when tightening the knobs, be very, very gentle.

   Good quality for the price

   I was impressed with the quality of this produce. Every thing is heavy duty. Good magnet power. I would recommend this.
