 Nice size, works well, but a little complicated to use July 18, 2008
There is definitely a learning curve for this item. I found myself pouring over the intruction manual way too many times, spending more time on figuring out how to use the calculator than actually using it to calculate! It is a nice size and has a ton of functions-way more than I will ever need.
 BA II plus calculator July 12, 2008
I received it as it was described. It took longer to receive but it was not so bad.
 Attractively Priced For a Reason... July 11, 2008

Realistically, the BA II Plus can do everything you need from a financial calculator - any of the more advanced function that are lacking are better suited for Excel anyway.
My problem is that for the simple, everyday uses, the BA II Plus requires more keystrokes and is more 'complex' than its counterparts. For people who value time and efficiency, stay away.
I believe this is a classic example of 'you get what you pay for.' Spring for the more expensive HP unless you absolutely cannot afford it.
Good product May 14, 2008
This is a good product, cheaper than comparables, but the buttons could work a little better...
 not as good as its predecessor May 5, 2008
No need to repeat the comprehensive reviews already posted. Two comments I wish to add:
1) more buttons, more functions = simple calculations more complicated
2) confusing display. e.g., when you amortize a debt and compute the payment amount, the answer will appear as a NEGATIVE number. (the manual confirms this)
