This is a good deal for a Fender branded tuner… however, generic tuners for this price are pretty common and a generic tuner is arguably just as good as *any* name brand.
So, consider it a good deal for bragging rights…assuming you're the kind of person who brags about the brand of their guitar tuner

The dirt cheap no-name tuner I bought a decade ago outlasted this Fender tuner, which I bought last year as a back up. The Fender tuner felt cheaper, didn't seem to tune as precisely, and due to its limited tilt range, eventually just snapped in half when put under a little pressure.
Not sure what to recommend instead that's in a similar price range, but I won't be replacing my broken one with this one.
I've had or used at least 7 different brands of generic tuners over the last 8 years and none of them work as well as these Fender tuners. They tend to be spotty or slow in hearing the notes and/or the clip breaks easily. This tuner does exactly what it's supposed to do and is a sturdier build than most in this price range, even better than Snark tuners in my opinion. I bought 8 of these just to leave on the headstocks of some of my cheaper guitars, have some ready for lessons, and to throw in gig bags.
I personally find the Fenders to be better than most of the other cheap plastic tuners. I've also found that I use these physical tuners way more than the Fender app. In for another so each guitar will have its own. 👍

Just an FYI… Last time I ordered this, two of the three were DOA. I changed the batteries and still nothing. Just be aware in case you're one of those people that buys them for future use or for gifts.
