It's a Siglent SDS1102CML model, comes with 2 x probes, reasonably written basic manual to explain the functions, and a software CD which I have not had the chance to go through yet. The first thing that strikes you about it is size, or rather a lack of it, 6" in depth if that. Build quality is quite decent for the price, no floppy plastic that's going to break within a few weeks of use. The TFT screen is very clear and sharp, especially as the older I get the more my eyes get lazy.
I did the usual looking around on the net for specs and complaints / faults before I decided to take the plunge and get one. OK, it's not going to set the world on fire with it's performance when compared to makers like Tektronic etc, but then it doesn't have that extra zero before the decimal point in the price. For what I'm doing, as a home hobbyist and odd repair work, it's good enough for me and my requirements. If anybody else is interested, website at http://www.siglent.eu/.
