Just pinch, measure, read and check your results to the comparison chart. No need to struggle trying to pinch and click with cheap calipers, the Trimcal 4000 uses double spring tension to clamp and measure. Review: Great for the price - I use this for the 3-site Jackson & Pollock estimate for body fat percent. It's been reliable and easy to use. Great for the price. Review: Doesn't feel premium but it's accurate - If you're looking to use body calipers and don't have a huge budget these are great. Unlike the cheaper and shorter plastic calipers these actually have a decently accurate dial on the back and the pincher style makes it much easier to take measurements in patients with lower body fat. They're light and kinda feel cheap but I've used it for a while and it hasn't broken and gives repeatable results

Not accurate. 2 obviously different thickness skinfolds, give the same measurements. Ridiculous.
Incredibly inaccurate. Avoid

False advertising!
I've purchased this caliper before and it's been great, but I wanted a separate one to keep at the gym to measure up my clients. The one on the right is the new one I ordered. It's nothing like the pictures, very cheap quality and the readings are about 10mm out from my original skinfold calipers (on the left) which resemble the pictures exactly. False advertising!

Gives very consistent results, which is what matters the most.
These calipers give very consistent results for skinfold measurement, which is the most important thing for any caliper to do. Even if you aren't skilled with calipers, so long as you remain consistent in how you use them, you can get meaningful information from them, even if the numbers are all wrong. If your goal is to drop subcutaneous fat then all you really need to concern yourself with is how much your skin fold measurements change over time. If the measurements are decreasing, then you're on the right track, and if they're not....well...you probably need to change something. And for those who are trying to get absolute body fat measurements: While calipers like these aren't the most accurate means of measuring body composition, they do a good job for what you pay for them. The more accurate means available are very costly. This is especially true in my case, as I have a lot of water weight from kidney disease, which makes other common and inexpensive methods (such as BIA) practically useless because the percentage numbers are skewed heavily in favor of the water content, making i.e. fat and muscle percentages look lower than they actually are.
