Flawed yet indispensable  4.0 stars
I can't complain too much because there aren't that many Turkish-English dictionaries out there, but this one has some small issues.

First, I've found two typos so far. They were minor ("to rob oneself" instead of "to rub oneself") but I suspect there may be more.
Second, there are discrepancies between the English section and the Turkish section. For example, I hear a Turkish word and look it up. It's not in the Turkish section, but I guess the meaning, look it up in English and it's there.

Having said that, what I like about the dictionary is that it includes many forms of verbs (the passive, reflexive, causative, etc) which make my time in Turkish class a lot easier.

A warning: Turkish changes quite a bit. With this dictionary (or any dictionary) one probably wouldn't be able to tell if a word is old or new, or which is more acceptable to use in speech. Be prepared for people to correct you.

All things considered, I carry mine everywhere I go.
Useful  3.0 stars
This dictionary is very useful for beginers that are learning turkish. You can take it in your pocket to the classroom doesn't ocupy a lot of space. Useful for beginers but if you want to continuing to improove you should buy a bigger dictionary with more words. To begin is good. Very precise and easy to look for words. Good price also.
Kinda feel a bit cheated  3.0 stars
I honestly think it would have been in better condition and cheaper if I had purchased it new. It is a little haggered on the outside. However it is a perfect travel size and I look forward to referencing it upon my travels all over Turkey. Service was very prompt.
Dictionary review  5.0 stars
Good basic dictionary and the right size to fit in a pocket or the glove compartment of the car.

Just the basics, but there isn't currently much choice in the low price category.
