Customer Reviews:

Comfortable, reliable, attractive, does the job [Posted on 2007-03-16]
I'm ordering this calculator as a replacement for the EL-334MB that my kids spilled soda pop on and gummed up the keys. Prior to that, the little dear functioned beautifully, was a replacement itself for a similar Casio and a no-name cheapy purchased at the drug store. Neither of those measured up to my day-to-day use. Goodness knows, I've owned dozens of calculators over the years, and in every case have had one reason or another to dislike them all. The Sharp EL-334MB was different. I loved using it and it became a sort of pet of mine, so when Matt's ginger ale toppled over onto it, I heaved a sigh and immediately began to plan where to get another one. The local Office Max didn't have it (that's where I got the first one) but Amazon did, thank goodness. Some notable good points: Nice size, keys feel good, attractive, always works regardless of ambient light, nice big display, has that handy "00" key that I've used a lot more than I would have guessed, doesn't need batteries, and the keys are intelligently arranged. I just really got used to it and was very happy with it. I highly recommend this calculator.

Perfect for Gary Starr Method Rallyists [Posted on 2008-02-18]
If you're looking for a calculator to use with the "Gary Starr" method of calculating on TSD rallies, this is a good choice. The buttons are large but have a soft touch, so they may be prone to accidental entry (or deletion!). Values entered in memory are retained even when the calculator shuts off, which happens automatically after about 7 minutes. If you press + MR =, the value in memory will continue to be added each time you press =. It's a large calculator, about 4.5 x 6.5 inches, so make sure you have room on your clipboard.

Small traveling companion. [Posted on 2008-05-15]
I work from home and a office away from home. It is the right size and has everything I need at either location. Carrying it with me also deletes the need to have a desk top calculator at either location. Being small and light weight I put it in my computer bag so I always have it with me.
