This basic desk model is good value for money. It is has a clear 8 digit angled display & easy to use. The case is a very pale grey going on white with darker grey buttons and a big red ON button and an OFF button. It has two non-slip feet which stops it moving about when being used. The display shows the figures in black against a pale grey screen. The screen slopes upwards towards you which makes it very clear and easy to read. The MX8S works on solar power and has a 1.5v battery (LR54 included)as a battery back up and has an automatic power-off. The keys are large and very easy to use and because of their size it is not easy to hit the wrong key by accident. The calculator performs the major basic functions including addition (extra large key), subtraction, multiplication and division & percentage. The MU (Mark Up) key makes it very easy to calculate profit % margins. It also has a square root key and positive and negative number key. It also incorporates a 4-key memory function. This is a very robust calculator so it can be used in all types of areas. Due to its size it tends not to get lost and sits on a desk or can be carried around with you. It is solid but is not heavy.
