Timegrapher 1000

Hello all, I'm thinking about buying some inexpensive (hobbyist) timing gear. Is the Timegrapher 1000 a good buy? Or am I better off spending more cash?

I have a TimeGrapher MTG-1000 and find it an ideal machine. I've been using it for over a year now and have had no problems with it. The display is great and the information shown is clear and concise. It is much more useful than the old paper tape machines. I can't see any reason to pay more for a timer when the 1000 offers so much.

I see they sell for around $238.00 from Amazon. Is that about right? Thanks
