Okay, considering the price.
This thing comes covered in oil, which depending on your use can be a good thing or a bad thing. For me it's an awful thing as I intend to use this to setup guitars at home. I've wiped as much off as I can with a microfiber cloth but it still leaves oily skin when handling it.Also, some of the markings on the blades look partially worn off. Hopefully they won't get worse as they look printed on, so if they wear off, you'll need a vernier to know what blade you're using!

Does its job as expected.
Good value, but as someone else wrote...if wanted for guitar set up you need to wipe off a hell of a lot of oil. Can't complain though... Set string height perfectly.

Perfectly good, fantastic price
There's not much that can be said about them - they're feeler gauges, very accurate (yes, I am anal enough to have checked them with a micrometer), and about half the price I've ever seen them anywhere else. They've stood up to two guitar setups and my mate using them to check and shim the valves on his car's engine.Don't clean all of the oil off though - they're not stainless steel, and if they do get some surface corrosion and you're absolutely reliant on accuracy this can throw it off by a crucial fraction of a millimetre. If you're using them for non-engineering applications that you don't want to leave oil over (like guitar setups), clean them off but then re-apply a light oil to keep them clean.

Just the job
It does exactly what it’s supposed to do

Lots of Sizes
I bought this to use with levelling a 3d printer, it comes with so many different sizes I am sure I will find further uses for this in my garage. As other reviews have mentioned this does come liberally applied with oil however a rag very easily cleans this off and I'd rather that than to receive a rusty item!

Pre oiled, decent quality, good sizes.
Used to measure spark plugs etc. Come oiled before hand, good or bad depending on use, bad for me as I didn't want to contaminate the spark plugs and thus the engine. Great if you want to prevent rust and wear. Only takes 30 seconds to wipe down the ones you need. Good material quality. Step sizes are good, and perfect .7 and .6 for sparks.

Just what I should have bought years ago
Have probably needed these for year, but always estimated - things run better when the gap is right!

Works
Nice feeler gague. Purchased for calibrating a 3D printer and it serves it's purpose well. Comes well oiled to prevent corrosion though for my use I had to wipe most of it off. Can be a little hard to read the numbers on each of the gagues but it works.
