Good value, all items useful

I ended up here needing a new refractometer. I'll start with the price; this is about a $52 discount from buying the items individually.

The refractometer is seemingly high quality, like the ones you pay ~$100 for. Trust me, this is my second and the first was a $35 model that loses accuracy at higher gravities... This one jibes with the lab grade hydrometers I have. I don't use a refractometer for final gravity, just for mash and starting gravities. I would have been happy if this was all that was in the box.

The thermometer is nice, but it isn't a therma pen. It jibes with my tun thermometer without any calibration. Probably not what you want for precision, but still a nice tool.

The ph checker works - was able to see a sour I was working on reach 3.5 and my tap water read 7.1.

The scale is ostensibly ~30 times higher resolution than my Escali scale, but would've been nice to get resolution like a smart weigh ($12), especially for smaller amounts like hops or yeast. Still, it is a small improvement over what I've got.

The thief actually came in handy. I've got a couple of older style carboys that I was just using and I have a glass thief but it takes about 20 pulls to get a hydrometer sample. With this, it only took about 5 pulls and it was easy to sanitize being in 3 pieces. I don't normally need one as with the wide mouth carboys I normally use, I just use a sanitized 8 oz mason jar, but this will be useful when I have a large pipeline.

Overall, very pleased and good value.
