 Top notch! August 5, 2008

What's in a name? A lot, especially when you are working with expensive equipment that needs to be just right, etc. The Fluke name is associated with being the best in making meters, and I would not be using any other brand name for my metering needs!
Best Multimeter I've owned January 13, 2008

I've used a couple of cheap multimeters in the past. Once I ordered my new tube amp, the manufacturer recommended not to use a cheap multimeter, and get a Fluke 87-5 as this would give accurate readings.
Well, after spending that much on the tube amp, I had to get the Fluke. Upon receiving it, build quality was excellent. Manual was also pretty good. Although, the manual presupposes that you know how to work a multimeter unit already. I had to slowly figure it out as I am no engineer.
Bottom line, this is a great product! I only wish it were readily available in the Philippines. The price of this here in Manila is double srp in the US.
Excellent Quality January 1, 2008

I use to have a Fluke 87-III which had an outstanding quality. So, just based on this previous model I can be sure that this will be oK.

I have been in the RV repair industry for a long time and one thing is for sure, I cannot do my job without a top quality meter. I have in the past bought Snap-On, Mac, Matco,ect, but have never been as pleased with a meter as I have with this one. Beyond the normal functions of a meter, I love this one for its temp probe, no more are the days of carrying a therometer to take readings inside fride, a/c/ unit, all I do is plug it into the meter put the probe inside and shut the door within 30 seconds I have a very accurate reading. But probably the most important thing about this merter is the "true RMS" readings I get, this is very important when working with power converters and inverters..This meter is very well protected also with fuses (fuses are pricey though) have not blown one yet but I would recommend purchasing a set to keep on hand.
 Its a good instrument to be used. September 6, 2005
