Catiga Electronics CD-2786 Large Display Desktop Calculator, Light Blue

This solar and battery dual powered calculator has nice large numbers and viewing screen so it's easy to use and read. Great for home, office or school use. The bottom has 4 rubber pads to help keep it stationary while in use. I recommend this product!

I have a small home-based business and I also keep track of my personal finances. A calculator is a necessity. This Catiga CD-2786-12 Desktop Calculator is excellent. I am in my early 60s, so I greatly appreciate the large buttons and the large display. And because it it both Solar and Battery powered, I never have to worry about it running out of power. Unlike my older hand-held calculator, this Desktop Calculator sits on the desk and I do NOT have to pick it up to press the buttons or to see the display. This makes this item much more convenient when doing calculations. [See photo] This is a very simple and basic calculator that looks sharp, works well, and is perfect for my needs. I recommend this product.

I finally checked my mailbox! Here it is! (Pics below) This is a handy calculator. Much easier to use that the computer one, simple and easy to read with large keys. This calcultor is about 5.5" x 4". So it's not tiny, but it also does not take up a lot of space. It will fit in a drawer that is at least 1" high. Having large keys is essential for those of us who are older or for people who have large hands. The size of the keys are larely what makes it highly functional. It has another quality that is attractive: solar capacity! Yes, it will work on a round, 1.5 volt battery or via light energy. Having a floresecent bulb in your desk lamp will encourage the solar function, although I would keep a working battery in it for backup. Pros: large keys and large, easy to read display, simple -- no miltiple function keys. Each key is responsible for one function. Turns itself off after a few minutes of non-use. Cons: Keys do not light up in the dark.

This calculator is perfect for those of us with not so perfect vision. The display and buttons are large and easy to read making quick accurate calculations a snap! Runs on both solar and battery power (replaceable button cell) so it works great in low light situations as well. The solar feature will continue to work independently of a dead battery, so no worries in that area. Handy for quick desktop or mobile use. Would also be a great first calculator for the kids. I've only had it a couple of weeks and used it a dozen times already. If you need a fully functional, slightly above basic, easy to use/read calculator this model from CATIGA would be a perfect choice.

This calculator functions very well. I love how big the buttons are and how easy they are to press. I also like the fact that it has 4 grips on the bottom to keep it in place while on a tabletop. It has all the basic function keys to make mathematics easy. It also is dual powered by solar and battery. Overall great quality. I really like this calculator.
