Westcott Clear Protractor, 12925

There’s nothing to say about this protractor, other than that it’s a sophisticated piece of 21st century magic. Not only is it see through, it has markings on it that could theoretically be used to measure angles. Just be aware that it is VERY SMALL. I expected it to be a wee bit larger. But at the end of the day size doesn’t matter. It’s what you do with it that matters. 5 stars.

This product is great, but it is a little smaller than expected, it is roughly 4 x 2 1/4 inches. Also, they must have changed the packaging, because the label is not on the actual protractor anymore, it is on the plastic bag the protractor is sealed in. I saw a lot of reviews complaining about that.

It's a small protractor, what can I say? Got it for my grandson to fool around with.

This is a good size protractor BUT there is a sticker that is hard to get off on it! It doesn't hinder the actual use because the numbers are still visible. I should have read the reviews before purchasing because a lot of them say the same thing.

Clear markings, definitely value for money

This probably would have been a fine enough protractor. However, it came with a label sticker directly on the back -- which of course renders it totally unusable until the sticker is removed. Unfortunately, the sticker uses an adhesive that is entirely unreasonable for its purpose, and it CANNOT be removed except by resorting to solvents that turn out to destroy the plastic as well. So, the label itself unnecessarily renders this junk.

Using this protractor to teach my son the principles of acute, right, and obtuse angles has been a breeze. He was able to envision and comprehend the concepts with ease thanks to the transparent design, which made learning fun and efficient. But there was one small setback: it was hard to get the sticker off the rear. The sticker residue remained on it even after I cleaned it with soap. However, the overall good experience was not greatly diminished by this difficulty. Our lessons were greatly aided by the protractor's durable build and obvious markings. It has grown to be a vital tool in our toolbox for education.

Perfect for school--fits nicely in a pencil bag with more room for other things. I wish they would sell these in stores, since they are great if you don't want to carry around anything too bulky. The text is actually pretty big--about the same as 12 pt Arial on a printed sheet of paper, and is perfectly legible even when held out at arm's length. The dimensions are pretty much exactly described (it was maybe 1/16 of an inch shorter, but that's it). I don't see why anyone would say it's too small. I mean, isn't the whole point of purchasing this to get a smaller protractor? If you want a bigger one, buy the ones they sell in-store.
