Absolute must have if you are working with GFCI outlets!
The media could not be loaded. I previously owned a basic GFCI tester (no display) and had great results. However, I found myself needing a bit of an upgrade so I could see the voltage readout for my outlets. This checked the box and is an absolute game changer for me. It had a better design, around the same size as the basic version, nice and bright display, but most important of all it is accurate. I can test GFCI outlets and get the voltage readout for any outlet in my home. It has helped me identify issues with lower voltage in some outlets and bad GFCI outlets. I recommend reading the instruction manual before using a device like this just to get accustomed to what it is telling you on the digital readout display. Overall, it comes from a quality brand, it is easy to use, so this is a must-have tool if you are working with electrical.

Industry standard for a reason -- accurate, pocket size and quick to read
This is an industry standard. I've had a lot of electrical work done on my place and was very pleased to see the journeyman electrician had one of these. He sang its praises for being inexpensive, essential for electrical household safety, super bright, fits just right in the hand (or small pocket), and the design is well-labeled and so easily read with the LCD screen. I was quite happy I bought it after hearing all that!!! Great for finding and fixing open ground and so many other issues. Put one in your electrical kit and stay safe!!

A must for any tradesmen
Why did you pick this product vs others?:Price point and name. I’ve bought several of these for my employees. Very accurate within one volt of my fluke meters. Build quality:Durable, and reliable

A little more expensive than the simple testers but worth it
I have one of those 3 LED testers already, the ones with the 2 yellow and one red light... and has a legend on it so that you can tell what is what. Works great... only issue is that when I was working outdoors or in a brightly lit room, it wasn't so obvious which LED were lit. So I bought the Klein as it wasn't a bad price and had the built in GFCI too. My old set, I had a separate GFCI tester which also worked great but just meant I had 2 separate testers. I played with the Klein soon as I got it having installed the batteries (Klein supplied I might add!!!!). You need to hold the power button down a couple of seconds and then the LCD comes alive. I tried it in various outlets around the house and found it to be a really effective device. The unit has only 2 LED's and there's no mistaking when they light up, both bright... A green one which clearly means OK and a red one meaning a fault in the wiring has been detected. I already had a purpose made miswired test lead I used for verifying the fault detection capability. Works great. I also like that it provides a reading of the actual voltage detected. It's not just a passive device.I have only one minor concern... When I put this in my toolbox I'm worried about something resting on the power switch and running the batteries down, so for now, having already carefully cut around the edge of the packaging, I'm keeping it in the packaged plastic. Might be overkill and maybe I'll buy a protective case for it if I feel inclined but for now, perfectly happy with the device and definitely recommend over the typical passive receptacle testers, even though they may be half the price.

Testing for voltage in outlet.
Works good, but it is a little bulky.

Great for every DIYer
Last time I use a multimeter to check the voltage on an outlet, the probe sparked and melted. This experience was very scary and I am not going to try it again.This Klein GFCI outlet tester provides a digital reading just like a multimeter with just plug in which is safer. The extra function of checking correct wiring is a plus because I replaced two old GFCI outlets and this helped double check my work for safety as well as testing if the GFCI trip function works or not.This tester size is longer because of the detail display. And it is because of this, the price is slightly more than other basics tester.

Another excellent tool from Klein
Has an electrician I find this device to be efficient and informative. Like any other plug tester it tells you if the wiring is done correctly but when wiring a new house we have to test to make sure voltage is correct in an outlet as well with some of the larger homes that are built these days, you can imagine how tiresome they can get going around with a voltmeter testing 80 to 200 outlets. This device makes that task quick and easy.
