Wowlife Vintage-Style Chinese Wooden Abacus, Chinese Lucky Calculator

It looks just like traditional abacus -it is well made and I use it as a stress reliever. The texture and sound it makes is quite calming. The price is good and the quality is outstanding

Good product.Sturdy.Great for children and adults.I am learning right along with my granddaughter.Not disappointed with the product.

This item is well made and works. It would also make a good conversation piece.

What am I about to disclose may have both positive and negative feedback. First of all, I had one similar when I was a youngster, didn't know what it was or how to use it. It did not have any instructions, I did realize later on that it is a calculator (no problem). Is there an instruction manual for this model? I have viewed some Youtube videos and saw some instruction but not sure how and why they number the beads. Their demo has one "heavenly" side and mine has two. For instance their heavenly side is equivalent to 5, mine are 5 and 10 respectively. It is worth keeping for the nostalgia if nothing else. I saw a video on a much simpler child size or child usable and is quite simpler to use.

Poorly finished with peeling paint and dented brass straight out of the box but robust and functional
