Durable counter even with heavy use. So far so good. It seems like a good bargain. Size is just right and easy to use. Hopefully, it stays functional for a long time.

It's as pictured. Steel outer with the lightness of inner plastics. Satisfying clicks. Worth the money. Solid in hand. Easy to read

Incredible quality

This is a great tool for keeping track of your completed sets when working out. I like the simple mechanical feel. No mushy buttons or weak beep as with an electronic tally counter. Electronics have won with stopwatches but I doubt they can do this as well. You don't even have to look at it to know your tally is recorded.

Feels very heavy duty. I like to get things that last. This cost a little more but feel like it is quality

Was skeptical when I saw the price, but this is a great hand counter. Very solid and well made, smooth action.

Our group runs meet ups and we never know how many will come through the door. With this counter, it's quick and easy, which helps us in our planning for next year.

I got this for a friend who counts heads at church. He said this was made very sturdy in comparison to his last one. Very satisfied.

I use clicker counters at my job regularly, and there's plenty of cheap plastic counters around. I wanted a nice one for myself, and Lion brand kept coming up as the best in my (very quick) research. Ultimately, they do the exact same thing and there's no practical advantage to having a $12 Lion over a $2 generic counter, but the Lion is much better made. The construction feels more sturdy, the action feels smoother on the lever and the reset dial, and the numbers are larger. The finger ring also feels more sturdy. This is a very small and easy way to splurge on a tool if you regularly use a clicker counter.

Use this counter every day while walking around track. It shows you how many laps you have completed.

I ran out of fingers and toes so I ordered this ........PROBLEM SOLVED!

Simple design! Comfortable to use! Accurate!

This is quality. You can see it right off. Pick it up and the heft shows it is mostly metal. Feels good using it. Solid quality.

Very good quality, I had one better than this one, but I cant find the model anymore.This one is a real Japanese version you feel the quality when you push it.

This unit is flawless and came in at a great price even compared to fake plastic junk unit from China.

Has a nice click to the action, easy to reset, there's nothing I can think to ask of it that it doesn't do.Great simple machine, good heft, no complaints from me!

The counting is accurate and convenient

I was mainly looking for a tally counter with a metal attachment point for the finger ring. My previous one worked fine but broke where the ring attaches. When I got this one in hand I was really surprised what a difference in feel it has in the hand and how much smoother and precise it feels as you click the mechanism. Well worth the extra money.

Well made. Comfortable to hold for long time periods. Solid overall performance and feel. Highly recommended.

The pictures compare the Lion Pro-Line counter to a common generic budget counter made in China. The Lion Pro-Line is below the yellow box and the budget counter is under the white/red box in the pictures. Here is some of what you are getting for the higher price:1. Durability - Lion Office Products states on their website that their Pro-line model is a heavy-duty tally counter that is built with a hardened steel mechanism for durability and years of quality use. On the other hand, the cheaper generic tally counter without the hardened steel parts broke at about 1600 cycles. If you look carefully at it in a couple of the pictures, the 1 in the first column looks a little bit shorter because it is partly covered by a small piece of plastic that broke off inside. It looks like one of the teeth from a gear wheel. I can hear it rattle around when I shake it.2. Better Fit and Finish - If you use your counter for exercise like me, you should opt for the Lion model because it has a much tighter fitting case. There is no gap in the middle of the case to speak of. The case on the cheaper generic tally counter has a slight gap in the middle. I stuck a Post-it note in the gap in two of the pictures so you can see what I am talking about. The Lion Pro-Line also has a brushed stainless steel type of finish that is not as slick as the shiny chrome type of finish on the generic counter.3. Robust Construction - You can see in the pictures that the finger loop on the Lion Pro-Line is thicker and more substantial, and it is attached by a metal fastener. The finger loop on the generic counter is noticeably thinner and held on by a plastic tab.4. Attention to Detail - Lion uses a magnifying lens that makes the numbers larger and easier to read. If you compare the two tally counters side by side, you will notice a slight curvature to the lens on the Lion whereas the generic counter only has a flat plastic lens. The Phillips head screws on the generic model look a little mangled like they were over tightened. The Phillips head screws on the Lion Pro-line look like they were carefully tightened and are undamaged.5. Smoother Operation - Lion's tally counter has a much better feel to it. The clicker action is smoother and silkier, and it requires less thumb pressure to depress than the generic counter. In my opinion, the Lion Pro-line is well worth the extra cost, and it will pay for itself over the long haul.
