Rating Summary
I picked this up awhile back to add to my toolbox and I've been very glad that I did so now. The meter itself is really a nice meter despite not being one of the high end meters. For the average consumer, it gets the job done and gets it done right. The added voltage probe sealed the deal for me...

Craftsman Digital Multimeter with AC Voltage... Reviews
This item is great for what it does, but do notice as other uses have stated in previous reviews that this isn't really for AC current. This will work for DC and the little supplied tester will work for AC current, but the voltmeter itself will not. So if you need it around the house for testing AC and DC current. You'll have to find another one.
This multimeter came in simple plastic packaging but is high quality and easy to use. It has a nice rubberized case with an optional kickstand to make it easy to read while you use the contacts. The instructions are on 1 folded sheet of paper but if you need more information about what settings you can always find it on the internet. It also has the ability to replace the fuse in case you overload it.
The readings are accurrate and the display is big and easy to read. It has helped me diagnose many problems with my devices and hasn't failed me yet.
What's also great is the free pen that's included...

Searched long and hard on the internet for an inexpensive Digital MultiMeter. Then I went into Sears and saw this one for only $14.99 on sale, which includes the MultiMeter and a AC Voltage Detector! I measured my fresh new car battery which I charge up and it read 12.95 Volts. I was amazed for my ancient 25 year old $60.00 analog meter, which is quite accurate and trusty, read the same voltage after I manually adjusting it. I wanted the 1.5V and 9V battery testing feature. I measured a rechargeable Ni-MH and it accurately detected it as weak at .65 Volts, which I did not know at the...

I am pretty happy with the capabilities of the multimeter, I recommend it. For home use, is really good. Works perfect and make me remember all time in school and physics classes. Easy maintenance and fuse or batteries replacement.
This is a great multimeter to carry on you if you're even in a situation where you don't want to use a more expensive multimeter, or if you don't need a more expensive one.
I bought this kit after Labor Day. I am pleased with the multimeter. After unpacking the unit, I compared its basic AC and DC voltage settings to a Amprobe 37XR-A, Fluke 179, and a Wave Tech 27XT. The craftsman meter was pretty close to all of these. The basic battery test feature is great for the church's media department. As for the non contact AC voltage probe, good tool. It would be a great tool if it had a on/off switch like the flukes. Other than that, good simple tool to have. If you have lots of recepticals, lights, and light switches near your work bench, you might want...
