I was able to quickly see what the price would be in US Dollars prior to making a purchase. I am very glad I had it with me. I used this converter on my trip to Europe. As the Euro is higher valued than the dollar, it helped me stop and think twice before buying an item that was costly. It is small, lightweight and easy to use. The countries I visited used the Euro, so I didn't have to change the exchange rate. It worked perfectly.
I've already worn out one. For anyone who travels abroad, this currency converter is a necessity. It's ease of use and layout make it ideal for quickly calculating how much things cost in dollars.
I plan to buy these for all my traveling friends. Of course, the taxi driver in Tahiti to whom I gave a $50 tip instead of a $5 tip would disagree. Small, handy, easy to use. Wish I had bought this thing sooner.
Great little gadget very simple to use and fits right into your pocket/purse without taking up any room.
I would definately not reccomend this item. I looked at the manual, and the particular ones that were sent to me were manufactured in 1989. Go to a store and test these out before you purchase. I recently purchased two of these as stocking stuffers for my Mom and Sister since we are going to Italy in March. When I received them in the mail, I opened them up to make sure they worked, and they indeed did not work.
