the metronome is fine. It looks quite nice and works very easily. It is, however, a little delicate. I didn't expect that the casing would feel so flimsy and that the mechanical components would be so thin.
This is the first mechanical metronome I have used, so I cannot say if this is the same as any metronome in this price range.
It works and it works well while still looking better than a digital metronome!
