I have many of the Harbor Freight ones, they are OK. The biggest problem with them is the rotary switch and the leads. Other than that they are pretty accurate. The Velleman I had (same as this one) was a step up, was back lit and the test leads were good enough to actually use it to measure currents of 3-4 amps.
$6 for this DMM is a great price! there should be nothing to think about, even if you already have a nice meter, this makes a good back up.
I ordered one, too. Always nice to have a spare, or sometime handy to have two or three for the same build…Thanks for the Heads-Up
For what I use dmm’s for (voltage, resistance, current etc) there is nothing better than FREE. Except of course, another free unit!
The only reason I would get this is it looks much more like a “good” dmm. 
And so far none of the stuff I use a dmm for seem to care. 
I would expect it to be WAY better. I have a couple of those HF meters and they what've been worthless for current measurements. My two disagree on voltage by a few hundredths of a volt, but deemed acceptable. There was a post showing how to calibrate their voltage just a few days ago.
I also bought the more expensive one from HF on PilotPTK's recommendation (rebranded Mastech with temperature & lux readings), but it's too cheap feeling for me. The leads don't "lock-in" well at all (I took the first one back because the plug was too loose in the jack and test fitted every one on the shelf to get a decent one).
I don't expect this one to be highly accurate and great quality, but if it turns out that way great!
My Elenco was kinda cheap too (flimsy plastic housing) and the probes plastic had broke, but readings seemed good until recently. It sat for years with only occasional use.

I was going to order 2 but only could get one. Thanks for the heads up.
Oh, see my old comparison post between my HF & Elenco meters with different leads measuring current.
I would definitely own something better if you want reasonable tailcap measurements. You'll just mislead others posting your readings.

I only get $6.87 and only comes from US warehouse. It’s logical since it is more expensive to ship from US to international. I think the main warehouse is probably sold out on this item.
Anyhow, don’t forget to use SUMMER coupon to get 5% off.
Thanks to all for the wise words in comparing to the HF meter, and to the OP. This one will be the main one instead of spare or backup.
You guys are animals! Out of stock now... 
I got 3 meters now, but I know I could use one more - well, maybe?
I had 1 in my cart from the US Warehouse for 5.94, I just went back to it and it is now 9.94!
They actually went into my shopping cart and switched the price!
and the international warehouse price is $10.02
Hey, you know what it's like around here when someone posts a good deal! You snooze you lose!

Seemed to recall reading the sale is good to something like Sept. 2.
Did anybody save the page?
[EDIT]
2. OP says the sale is good for 2 days on the 27th.
OP, where did you get that info?
They post the number available (270), along with how many were bought and the number left.
This was right after I ordered mine, just made it.
I don’t remember seeing such page at all.
Really puzzling how I could have missed it.
Anyway, TM is not pulling a fast one then.
Hmm, thats odd, I couldnt enter coupon code anywhere, probably because this was sale item?
Anyway, I just went to my Tmart account to check out order’s list and guess what? There is no sign of my order!
I paid with Paypal and see that transaction went through just fine.
EDIT: Contacted their live chat, they said that item was sold out and that it will be back in stock in 9 days and thats when they are going to ship it.
I was provided order number and was assured that it will appear in my orders list througout this day.
Back to listed at $9.94, US warehouse... All gone, done. Thought they said for 2 days....
270 units limit for this deal… unfortunately. Glad I didn’t wait around… 
The coupon worked for 5% regardless of the deal/sale item, it’s keyed in on the final confirmation page (after paypal).
Yeah, I meant as a back up to your existing meter, I wouldn’t trust this too much.
For those who missed this anyhow, the next best deal is $8.06 at BIC (after coupon 5febay2013):

Different branding but pretty much the same thing.
Mine was marked as order shipped. Go figure!
