Find Best Price at Amazon"I really wanted to like this tool and it's got some nice qualities but it's biggest downfall is the fact that the screws that are on the underside of the tool protrude about 1/8th of an inch, preventing it from laying completely flat on a given surface."
"It clearly has untold uses and this is far superior tot he plastic one which runs close to the same price."
"The quality is great and the instructions are very clear and easy to understand for any skill level."

"At the same time if the measurement was wrong, you will not be able to delete it from the ongoing list of measurements - although if you keep in mind that the saving of ongoing measurements is an aid, it should not be of concern - to me it is not."
"Works fine, lightweight, accurate, Seems plenty rugged enough for home use."
"Have been testing this thing for accuracy , at least for up to 50m/160' it's good but according to instruction manual over time it'll become less accurate. (PITA). as i expect for a new item it should work correctly for the first 12 months, if it does not i will reduce the stars to match performance."
"If you want to measure an object where you have easy access to both ends, then the conventional tape measure or ruler works fine."
"This is so much faster than my old manual way of measuring, I don’t know how it works but I am just glad it works and saves me time."
"We are going to move and need measurements of walls, windows, areas where we can put furniture, etc."
"I liked using this, very easy to figure out the basics."

Reviews
Find Best Price at Amazon"I have two matching shelves on both sides of a credenza and I had to have the anchors (giant hook eyes) level across the whole wall, and this laser was PERFECT for that. I had done the first bookshelf before getting the matching one, and BEFORE getting this laser - and I ended up drilling and anchoring only for it to somehow still be uneven (because walls are never perfect) and ended up having to spackle all and do it over and over again. By the time I got the second shelf, I had this laser, and it took maybe 45 minutes altogether (I had to paint the anchors gold to match the chains - I'll add some pictures someday, I'm sure I'm not doing a great job describing it)."
"Nothing annoys me more than a review by someone who has just received their product and has not used it yet or has not used it long enough to give a well-tested review."
"You can turn on each laser line individually as well as switch between auto leveling or a manual "fixed" mode."
"Great product at a great price!"
"Three laser modes for a horizontal line, vertical and both at once."
"It will clamp to just about anything so on my project I needed a hight well above a standard camera tridod so I used a 8' ladder."
"This is a great little laser level."
"I've only had this a few weeks, but am in the middle of a major renovation project and have used it a ton."
