Quality


Seems to be of good quality durable.


Good build quality and like the 'key-chain', helps in keeping it for getting lost.


On a recent hike where it rained the paper temperature scale inside the thermometer case got wet and the compass fogged.


Btw - it reads made in taiwan.

Price


Recommend to have on jacket or backpack for its the cheapest option on amazon and don’t weigh anything and of good size.

Shipping


A few days later this item arrived.

Competitiveness


The thermometer is accurate to within about 2 degrees fahrenheit as far as i can tell by comparison to home thermometers.


The compass is more or less accurate when compared with the compass of my iphone 4.
