Erster Schulzirkel für meinen Sohn.Positiv:- Schenkelarretierung arbeitet (bis heute) zuverlässig und ist einfach zu bedienen.- Die Einstellung/Verstellung des Zirkels gelingt nach kurzer Zeit sogar einhändig.- Zirkel kann mit dem beiliegenden Universaleinsatz den mitgelieferten Feinmineneinsatz verwenden oder Buntstifte, Fineliner und anderes Zeichengerät einspannen – für farbige Kreisabschnitte in Mathematik/Geometrie oder im Kunstunterricht von Vorteil. Auch für Experimente mit anderen Stiften und Materialien interessant.- Gegenüber vielen anderen Zirkelherstellern wirklich sehr kompakter, platzsparender Zirkelkasten.Negativ:- Die mitgelieferte Zirkelspitze war nicht so spitz, was schon mal zum Wegrutschen führen konnte. Wir haben sie gegen eine passende, wirklich spitze Schulterspitznadel ersetzt. Daher haben wir hier nur 4 von 5 Sternen gegeben. Nebenbei: Eine Schulterspitze verhindert auch ein Durchstechen des Mathematikheftes.Ohne Bewertung:- Einige Elemente wie die Enden der Schenkel und der Universaleinsatz sind aus Kunststoff. Sie Funktionieren gut. Über ihre Dauerhaltbarkeit kann ich bisher nichts negatives berichten. Gegenüber Metall reduzieren sie in geringem Maße das Gewicht im Ranzen und wohlmöglich die Produktionskosten.

Els millors compassos que hem comprat, tot un èxit. Ideal perquè els nens l'utilitzin sense que trenquin per error la típica rosca. Té la comoditat de fixar-se però com que es fixa amb la palanqueta, és còmode, pràctic, fàcil d'aprendre a fer anar i més resistent.

Sembra un compasso robusto, buon rapporto qualità presto, quattro stelle perché il righellino che si intravede è di plastica sottilissima.

Very nice compass. Locks solid to keep its' setting, does not spread open during use. Opens up far enough for me to scribe 12" circles. The holder for .5mm lead is genius. The lead supplied was too soft for me so I'm running HB. (Your experience may vary.) Should have bought it a long time ago.

Turns geometry into a joy. Bought for my child student but I use his all the time. Worth the price.

It's very nice and will meets the needs for most applications. Not exactly precision, but for $10 it's a winner.

I was really happy with this. Main reason i purchased it was due to the ability to fit a sharpie and other types of pens in it.

The mechanical pencil is junk, but there is an adapter for a regular pencil. For the thick lead option on the compass, there is a tiny sharpener to keep that lead sharp. The compass locks more tightly the larger the circle you are trying to make. The lock/unlock lever makes changing sizes easy. Gets the job done for schoolwork, may to be great for professional artists.

I had a hard time finding a quality compass. Some products included other stuff I didn't need. This one is perfect. Once you get the circle the size you want the compass locks in place to ensure that the beginning and ending of the circle meets. It also has an attachment in order to afix any type of drawing implement you might want to use to make your circle (e.g., pencil, pen, fine-tipped marker, etc.). It's exactly as advertised.

The main legs on this compass are metal and the locking mechanism works very well. My regular $4 Maped compass is decent for general use, but for precise measurements and drawing, this compass is great.
