The Fluke 87V and Klein MM700 multimeters cater to different user needs and environments.

Klein Tools MM700 Multimeter, Electrical Tester is Auto Ranging, for AC/DC, LoZ, Temp, Capacitance, Resistance, Frequency, and More, 1000V

Both meters are highly capable.

Fluke 87V offers additional features like peak capture, more precise frequency measurement, and a higher safety rating (CAT IV 600V). This makes it ideal for more complex industrial applications.

The Klein MM700, while very versatile, is more suited to general professional use with an excellent range of basic functions at a much lower price point than the 87V.

It is robust, focuses more on general electrical tasks with features like a non-contact voltage tester and a broad measurement range. The MM700 provides essential functions with great versatility but lacks some of the more advanced, specific capabilities of the Fluke 87V.
