Tested to within 1%. What more can you ask?
Great value and variety. I also love that they came with a band legend sticker. That will be useful to stick on the lid of the sorting tray they will go into. On the down side; The pouches were not in order, a few of them were mislabeled (but the stamp on the ribbon was correct), and some of them were labeled differently even within the same value range. (See pictures) BUT, those few complaints are fairly trivial when you start to test and use these items; testing a random smattering of the resistors shows that they do indeed fall nicely within the 1% range, which is really all that matters here. Random tests pictured.

Always good to have a wide array of resistors on hand!
Pros: They're boxed up, in numerical ORDER by ohms! Easy to sift through and find the right ones Color chart Cons: sitting one out and forgetting the value, having to read the chart and TRY to see the color rings is unbearable when you have not-so-great vision. But they DO provide a chart which is really handy if push comes to shove. Would buy again for sure.

better quality than I expected
All values measured well within tolerance. Each value packed separately and well marked. The leads were thinner than what I had hope, but that seems to be pretty standard now compared to years ago. Still not a problem if your using a quality breadboard.

Thank goodness the baggies are labeled
Lots of resistors with many values. The few test circuits I've built with them have worked as intended, so they seem to be accurate. I actually did have to test the resistance with a meter after my 10 year old disassembled my breadboard and made a pile of everything. I would have tried reading the codes, but they look like the bands were painted by a dog. I mean, the colors are not easy to differentiate, some are fairly thick bands while others are very narrow stripes, some are partially missing. It's hard to tell which end to read from. Bottom line, they're a pretty cheap price but they seem to work well (so far). As long as you pull them out of the baggies or use a meter to check them, you should be okay. Recommend.

Couldn't resist...
Who can resist a box full of resistors? I use these for general projects. Comes in a small cardboard box, and each set of resistors is in a tiny ziploc bag. So it's a box full of 73 little bags. Each bag is marked with the value, which is great since I can't read the color bands (an EE with color deficiency). I spot checked a few, they were all within published specs. Great value.

Useful selection to have on hand when prototyping
A well-organized, complete selection within its range. Note that the largest value is 1Megohm - I need a few values between 1M and 10M and had to cover them separately. The resistor leads are thin but that is actually a convenience - two leads can fit in a single standard perfboard hole if needed. And they have held up just fine to bending, resoldering, etc so they are not flimsy at all.

Great, low cost buy.
Great selection of low wattage resisters. Accuracy is very close to markings. a great low cost order for your building hobby.

A great way to start the resistance
I got this because i did not have any metal film resistors, only the ceramic type, and one of the projects i will be starting needs these. They're low wattage, but that's ok, it's good for 555 timers and whatnot. The box and packaging of resistors seems standard for the industry, and it includes a tacked on color band decoder chart for reading the values of resistors after you remove them from the bag. I have not tested the precision but i have no reason to doubt 1%, and 1% at this price is great! Worth buying if you need "a few" resistors, as the old RS used to charge ~$1 for just a handful of resistors, and this is over fourteen hundred!

Ist super
Man hat alles. Kann ich nur weiterempfehlen.

Great selection, well organized.
The leads are quite thin, so depending upon the state of your breadboard, the leads can be too loose or too flimsy to push in. If you are soldering, then they will work well.
