This is great for different locations and traveling. It is true that the numbers are hard to see, but many things are when you start to need glasses. It is loud enough to hear over Guitar, Tin Whistle or Violin and has the visual input.
The inside has some plastic, which is annoying. The Key doesn't screw in, on the storage location, so don't hold it upside down, over a drain, when opening The Metronome.
Also, a wood coloured alternative, that is not Mahogany, would be good.
This is a great Metronome.
