Works great, great deal

Works great! Quality is decent, no problems as of yet. I decided to order another printing calculator by sharp, as the keys "Cost, Sell, Margin" were conveniently located right above the numbers and were a lot larger. I will be using this as a back up. I had no troubles with the paper feed and the screen was very easy to read, along with the print out. And it's light weight.

I just like to have a record of things I'm adding up ...

I don't use any of the fancy functions, so I don't know alot about those. I just like to have a record of things I'm adding up for when I'm checking kids' homework for school (I'm a science teacher) or for my taxes. This machine is great for that, and I like that the paper is fixed into place in this system. My other adding machine allowed the paper to kind of slide around if I stored it vertically, so I had to secure it with elastic, but this one just stays in place.

Perfect for work or personal use...highly recommend

I wished I'd waited, every time I look, the price has dropped...very good deal! I've used the CASIO calculator (exact one, except color) for at least 20 years with absolutely no problems. I love the large number keys and large display screen. The only reason I bought this one, is because while working a few days ago...I spilled a Pepsi into mine and even after washing, the keys still stick, so it got demoted and I ordered this replacement which I will keep the soda away from. Other reviews stated that it came with batteries...it does not but for this price, really...batteries cost that much. It does require 4 AA batteries and it does come with a power cord and a small amount of printer paper, very small amount...just enough to give you the idea and the paper is easy to load and replacements are easy to find. Tip: when changing paper, I always attach just a small amount of clear tape joining the new roll to the old roll and then just press the FEED button...easy! Just in case you didn't already know that...hope to help!

Advanced technology. Top-notch value.

Clear, well made, capable calculator. I used my late Dad's 1960 Texas Instruments AC/DC calculator until it refused to "take" or advance the paper roll. I might add that in 1960 a simple calculator was enormously expensive- - after almost 60 years of service, I figured it was time for a new one. I read some of the reviews of this unit. and just shake my head at some of the negatives. Everything about this calculator is just fine. For myself and my needs, it fulfills every last requirement -- and yes, I have utterly no idea what 90% of the functions do. . .:)! And, I don't need to. Like most folks I use the unit to balance a checkbook, add up some tax deductions, and do a "percent" here-and-there when trying to price compare things I'm interested in buying. I bought some additional paper rolls, and some ink cartridges (the Texas Instruments calculator used the "chemical reactive" paper, which was fine, but did not print nearly as dark or clear as this unit). Everything ran me less than $40! And people complain? Buy it! It'll do what you need it to do. End of story.

Excellent product.

I love this calculator, it is a replacement for one that lasted many years. I like the fact that you can re-ink the little roller with stamp pad ink. I highly recommend this product.

Good product. About half the size of a full size casio / canon / sony commercial calculator. It is not backlit. Print function works well.

Good reliable calculator!

Casio makes an excellent calculator for everyday use. This one is no exception. I have rental property and also am the financial guardian for a family member. Lots of paperwork, lots of data input. Sure, I can generate spreadsheets, but having a calculator to add up receipts takes up far less printer paper (spreadsheets 30 pages long). Non-tape calculators are ok, but if you get used to hearing the noise of an entry, using a printing calculator is so much faster! And you have a print-out to double-check your totals. Maybe it's "old school" but this method has worked for me for many, many years with never a question from various agencies. Computer spreadsheets can be wrong - it depends on the accuracy of embedded formulas. A calculator print-out is visible proof every line item is included and accounted for.

Great calculator for this senior to use doing taxes, hides away easily 11 months of year.

Getting so used to my iPhone, tablet and desktop computer - great for quick adding. Then tax season descends and I need to take the paper tapes to add up each stack for deductions. Decent price, easy to use, just keep the ink thing up to date. When I get three tapes with the same total, I staple them to the pile, set them aside until everything balances and I can throw it all into a bag and head to the accountant for my taxes. Great for this senior.

Large number display is great -- a paper feed TIP

My old Casio (HR100-TE) of over 10 years finally stopped working. I needed something compact and low profile to fit into my briefbag and something that has large numbers. Knowing how many products are made NOT to last these days, I had trepidations when I ordered this calculator for under $20. The result: it works great out of the box. I initially had trouble getting the paper to feed because I couldn't position the strip between the roller. Finally, I thought of curling the very end of the paper upwards. After that, it fed in very easily (don't even have to push it in very far for the feed button to work). 5 stars for the price and after one figures out how the get the paper into the machine!

Worth it! Approximate 2 year lifespan

We use several of these in a small office setting for bookkeeping. They see fairly heavy use 6 days a week. I've bought 7 of these calculators since 2014 at different times. By my estimations, I'm getting about 2 years out of each calculator before I have to replace it due to what I call "the ghost in the machine". Things like 2+2=9 or it will suddenly total out before I want it to. Frustrating for sure but when I factor in how much perfect use it provided me (for years!) for $25 I can't complain. Besides, I can't accurately make it Casio's fault considering there's the possibility that other employees have sticky fingers after lunch or that something was spilled into the keys when I wasn't present. For the record, we've had two other brands in our office (much more expensive) that have succumbed to "the ghost in the machine" too. It happens to all of them.
