effective and stable, but takes a little time to find the right measure
AlexMerigo 27.04.2017
I bought several of those capos for my classic guitar pupils. Once set properly, they are stable and effective but it takes time to find a good setting, and if you have to fix it in a different place of the fret-board, you have to start everything over.
Very positive is that it does not disturb playing like bigger clamp capo, and this is peculiar good for children learning to play

Imperative to have.
Sebastian Schuth (Cubica Sound) 21.10.2021
If your guitar has a flat fingerboard, this cheap Capo is just more than adequate. Yes, other brands will be more rugged, and other style of capos are certain to be enjoyed in different ways, but as one always looses or gives them away, this one saves the day. If you need 1€ to reach the 25 € free shipping mark, select this one and keep it in the case or a fanny-pack. Essential accessory.

Good for the price
Timothy Hanford 26.12.2017
I bought this cheap capo when I lost my others and was low on cash for replacements.

The capo itself works perfectly, there was nothing wrong with other than being a bit more fiddly than a regular clip on capo.
After a few months of use the capo eventually broke, although this can be expected from such a cheap capo.

All in all, a good product for the price, but don't expect it to last forever.

Ra
terrible quality.
Richard aus Q. 08.06.2015
I know it's cheap but it is really aweful to work with. The decent ones cost just a couple bucks more, Not worth saving a few cents and get something you're gonna hate. NOT recommended.

Must have gear
Nickyboo 10.02.2021
I have a few of these... They're so cheap I don't mind giving them to students. I use one, too. How do they make them so cheap??

Low price but it feels it.
Jonathan431 26.08.2013
These are cheap and useful to have a few in case you lose your better capo but they are fiddly to use to get the right pressure and not quite large enough for wider necked instruments, like a classical for example.

Not bad, but not perfect
solea 06.08.2018
The quality of the metal is a bit bad, but it performs its functions good. I have an expensive capo and this one and I would advise adding a few more items and buying better.
But at its price is a worthy option.

Nice very low priced capo
BBGeo 05.09.2019
I bought this because I thought the price was intriguing. At first it went off the strings by itself so I decided to change the little belt as I thought it might be for some reason inside out. This worked and it never fell off again.

It is very good for the price but I am using only for rehearsals and not concerts. For the concerts you can get something a bit better but bit more expensive (like the jim dunlop capo).
