Old faithful
At the end of the day, you don't want to fuss with your tuner and you just want tit to work. The TU-02 clips on the headstock of your instrument, you turn it on and you're done. If you use it on one type of instrument and use standard tuning, just set it to that instrument's mode and leave it there. I use it on my guitars, bass and ukulele so I just keep it in chromatic mode.
I turn it off as soon as I'm done tuning and the battery is still going strong after 10 months.
The only downside is that you can accidentally press other buttons on the tuner (ie change the instrument or the calibration) if you're not careful, but if you keep that in mind, you get used to using it.

Work great
Reliable Boss Tuner. Take your time with it and you'll get your instrument in tune nicely, and a great price. The TU-02 and TU-03 are both great. Avoid the TU-01, it's a complete waste of industrial output

Surprisingly poor
I've owned plenty of Boss gear over the years and nothing has ever let me down. Sadly this tuner is an exception.
- It isn't accurate. Eg: On my 12 string it will report that the two high E strings are right in tune, when they're very audibly not nearly at the same pitch.
- It won't work if there is any other noise in the room.
- It only displays EADGBE for guitar - and often can't decide which one of those it is - so no use with a capo.
- The on/off switch is a toggle switch on the same super-small button as the instrument select. So instead of switching it off, you invariably set the thing for tuning a ukulele.
These little inexpensive tuners always go missing - especially mine. Well, I hope one of my bandmates steals this one soon. It's the worst one I've owned.

Good Clip tuner overall
Feels good, and most of the time it works perfectly, except for some incidents, it doesn't display the right note of a string but it shows if its sharp or flat.

Simple and cheap
It's a simple and cheap headstock attached tuner, what more can be said really - it works well. Can also be used for bass and other instruments by switching with the side button, so quite versatile.
The only slight issue is that it has "set" notes for standard E tuning and shows sharp/flat very accurately for that (of course) but probably not the best for alternate tunings as it doesn't always display the correct note if going very low.

Arrived damaged with screws missing on the inside
I think they sent me a damaged product from the start. The on/off button was pressed in and the tuner wouldn't turn on and off. The box was also torn off, like someone had opened it and just put back the tuner in the damaged box. The package box was unopened so this must have happened before the product was shipped.
When I removed the outer screws to see if the button was not sitting well, I saw that it was broken on the inside. This couldn't have happened during transport, because the button is so small, that it couldn't have been pushed in so hard by accident.
Also, on the inside, there's another screw missing.
I would've posted a photo here if I could, I didn't expect to get an already damaged product, because that damage couldn't have happened during shipping.
I also cannot return the product, because it would cost me much more than the tuner itself.

Excellent Tuner
Chromatic mode is really good, clean display and easy to use. Guitar mode has some issues sometimes it doesn't display the right note

Best clip tuner I have used since. Very sensitive, accurate. The display is also nice.
