Product Review
The TI1706SV is an easy-to-use calculator, offering functions for square root, percentages, and memory for plus and minus values, along with basic addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. Operated by both battery and solar power, it's easily portable and functions well in any light. It also features surprisingly large, responsive keys for such a compact unit.
The TI1706 has a lightweight design, although some users may find the casing to be a bit flimsy. Many calculators in the entry-level category offer more functions than the TI1706--subtotals and sales tax calculations, for example--but why buy such a calculator if those functions will go unused? If all you need are the most basic calculations, the TI1706 will fit the bill. --John Frederick Moore
