I have 2 Fluke 87s, an 85 and an 83, and a couple of bench meters, etc. , but I keep finding myself using the 101 for a lot of simple stuff. It's small, easy to handle, I'm not afraid of tossing it into the tool bag and so far I did not have any problem with it (I have it for now over 2 years). Sure, autoranging is slow, the continuity tester is not as nimble as of the 87, but it works. I do not have any accuracy problem whatsoever. For the price, unbeatable.
