This calculator was exactly what I was looking for for my home office. Using the calculator on my phone was endlessly frustrating, and I only need to do the four basic functions. I was looking for an inexpensive desk top calculator that would be easy to use, easy to see the display, and of good quality. This product seems to have answered all of these simple requirements, although the display is not back-lit, so in poor light you will have difficulty seeing the numbers.
It wouldn't seem like there's much to a calculator, but if you've ever used one with bad buttons or a dim display you'll appreciate this one.
It's sturdy, looks good, with big buttons/keys. Those keys are perfect with just the right amount of feedback and spacing. The replaceable AA battery is a great touch, since a lot of similar calculators either rely solely on solar or require some obscure watch battery you'll never remember to buy.
I had an old TI desktop calculator that lasted 33+ years (amazing). I needed a replacement and did not want to spend a fortune and this one was a great replacement. It is much lighter than my old calculator and its buttons that are easy to push and very visible, works on solar (you can add a battery as well, if needed - it only needs a single AAA battery), and it is still a great size for a desktop calculator. I highly recommend it.
I bought this calculator to take with me to auction school. I was wanting a cheap alternative to the daily calculator I use in my office. Turns out this is a much better calculator than what I was expecting. In fact, this is my new daily calculator. Love this thing. Perfect size. Buttons feels balanced and responsive and I like the angle that it sits when I have it in front of me. No more glare from the overhead lights. Thinking about ordering another for the shop floor. Highly recommended
My old calculator gave out after a few decades of use and I was forced to get a new one. I was expecting to have the same quality as before but it wasn't so simple as that. I ordered a couple calculators on Amazon and neither were good. They both didn't have the "back space" button. That was awful. They also didn't have the "double zero" button which anyone can live without. (Funny how you take things for granted until they aren't there.) So they went to the junk drawer for giving away. And after looking more discerningly I got this one. Thank you! It has everything needed for basic use. Yes this is the one I recommend.

Description
The Blossom Botanica series pays homage to Japanese woodblock style printing with it's characteristic floral design. The double pannier bag hangs over the rear rack of any bicycle turning any two wheeler into a cargo dream. As a double bag, it has all the space you'll need to carry your gardening aspirations and then some. The Basil Botanica Double Bag is available in Grey or Blue to match your trusty steed perfectly.
When it comes to electronics purchases we tend to trust well-known brands. I recently bought a good-looking compact desktop unit from a large--usually dependable--firm. The thing promptly went insane, adding instead of subtracting, multiplying everything twice, dividing my figures by Pi (3.14)...: you get the idea. This Helect Standard is the replacement and it works just swell. I like the big buttons that help compensate for ageing eyesight. The black colour blends in tastefully with my desktop, whilst two green keys make it possible to quickly locate the machine when wanted--well priced and highly recommended!
Quick, imagine the most generic calculator you can. This is it. The product does its job and, really, at this price, what else could you want?
it's a simple old-fashioned desk calculator., just as advertised. It has the usual extra buttons besides the ten digits and four basic operations, like the Memory buttons and the percentage (%) button, but no bells and whistles. This is NOT a scientific calculator. For power, it has a slot for a single AA battery and a solar panel. I haven't even bought batteries yet because the solar power works well in the day and I don't need it at night.
The buttons feel nice to press, it looks good, the screen has big numbers and is easy to see. I kind of hoped it would be a bit smaller, but this size is fine, too. Shipping was fast and the product was well protected with bubble wrap. So overall, zero complaints.
Just received this two weeks ago and so far this calculator is great. The best part I love about this product is the dialpad, it feels very good on your hand and it enters the number correctly, which is much better than the last calculator that I own. The screen is pretty big and also shows the number clearly. The size is just right for me to leave it on my desk all the time. I haven't had the need to use battery at all, just relying on the solar power. I love it
I purchased this calculator for my 96 year old father. He loves it! The keys are large enough for his large and slightly shaky fingers to hit correctly and the display is large enough for him to see. I was waiting to make sure he liked it as I would have taken it and tried again for him. Since he is so happy with it, I plan to buy another one for myself! A great calculator, just as described!
I was looking for a calculator with bigger numbers/squares (easier to press) and that had some style to it because I like cute things :)
This calculator is very nice. It was larger than I expected so at first it felt weird in my desk but now I'm getting used to it (I was using a very small one so in comparison it is much larger). It feels kind of bulky but it is cute, nice color, big buttons and I love the 'delete' feature when I type a number by mistake I don't have to erase the whole thing, just that one number. I didn't know how handy this button is.
Also, it has the solar panel but since my office doesn't have a direct light, I ended up adding a battery on the back.
Used the calculator a lot today and it felt great!
