Bahco CS150 150mm Combination Square

The item is exactly what I would expect from this brand. It is very sturdy, made from high-quality materials, and finished to an excellent standard. The quality and accuracy are exactly as expected. I would also like to commend the seller for their outstanding customer service. Unfortunately, my parcel was delivered to the wrong address, and the delivery photograph clearly showed that it was not my property. I contacted the seller, who responded immediately and was incredibly helpful throughout. We eventually managed to locate the parcel at a nearby address, and I was able to collect it myself. The seller remained in contact throughout the whole process, offering help and reassurance. At no point did they make me feel that the problem was my fault, which I thought was particularly considerate. It is easy for things to go wrong with deliveries, but the way a seller handles a problem really matters. This seller went above and beyond to help resolve the situation, and I would happily recommend them. Excellent product and excellent service!

Arrived on time. Sturdy, made from stainless steel so will last well. Accurate and machined well to provide a reliable measurement and 90 degree angle. The scribe screwed into the handle is a great feature. I have previously purchased a cheaper Chinese product and had to return it due to play in the mechanism - but this is not the case with this tool. In all, a quality tool built to last at a sensible price.

Quality

Good price and (as far as I can tell) actually square, which is nice. I haven't used this tool every day, by any means, but I've had it for a year or so and nothing has dropped off or come loose (yet), unlike some other inexpensive tools I've bought. As well as marking 90- and 45-degree lines, this square is useful for measuring things, though obviously designed for the US market as (for a right-handed person) it naturally works in inches. That is, the blade is marked in both inches and centimetres but if you use the square in the way it naturally falls to hand only the inches come against the flat of the body to allow accurate reading. You can get a reading in centimetres by turning the body over, so it's not as if this tool is unusable in metric, but it's just an irritating niggle especially if you're doing a lot of measurements. (If you worked left-handed and flipped the tool over left to right it would read in centimetres, but the markings would be upside down.) I've tried to work out if the blade can be turned to work in metric right-handed but it can't, which is a pity. Bahco could have made it flippable, or alternatively have offered an all-metric version for the 90% of the world that isn't America, but I suppose cost was a major consideration. Overall, well worth a couple of quid.

Lasts forever and more solid than the cheaper brands. Only combination square that beats these are the old engineering ones but they are hard to come by and cost a lot more. Had my 300mm bahco for 10 years plus and its still going strong.

Bahco mini square - absolute design, angle accuracy and readability. Its easy to use, perfect size for storage and it fits where other bigger squares can not fit. Loving it

This adjustable square is well made and easy to use. Good value item too. A few answers to the people that give it bad reviews. The missing end of the rule. An adjustable square is used for marking out on a flat surface of material. If the rule went all the way to zero when you marked for example a 20mm dimension with a pencil or scribe then the actual dimension to the line would be 20mm plus the thickness of the pencil line. As the rule is engraved, 0.5mm short, then your marked line is actually at 20mm. Simple. Accuracy. Craftspersons would not use an adjustable square to mark a 90 degree line. They would use a square. Not made in Sweden. Bahco were bought out by Snap On Tools, an American company, many years ago. Having worked for two British manufacturers that were bought by American companies, both moved to China. That's what American companies do, chase nickels and dimes. Cheap rubbish. You get what you pay for. Buy a made in UK, Starrett, version of this product. £50 please.

I've had a 300mm combi square forever (it's seen better days), as well as lots of other squares and rulers, so I didn't think a small version like this would be necessary. I WAS WRONG! This item gets used all the time in my workshop. There is a lot to be said for its portability too, cos it's always nearby or in a pocket and is now the first thing I reach for on most marking jobs. It is up to the usual high standard you would expect from Bahco and the markings are extremely legible. For only £6.99 you can't go wrong. The first one I was sent was missing its scriber, but Amazon replaced the whole thing with zero fuss; I had the replacement within 2 days. Very happy with this item!

Conforme et bonne qualité

Belle petite équerre à combinaison. La finition est propre. La pointe à tracer se visse dans le corps de l'équerre. Le niveau à bulle est propre en comparaison à un niveau de qualité. L'équerrage est également satisfaisant comparé à une équerre de qualité. Avec la lumière mise derrière, nous voyons qu'il y a très peu de défauts. Cette équerre est donc un bon achat. Je connaissais la marque Bahco au niveau scie traditionnelle et japonaise et j'en suis content. Au niveau outillage de jardin, les outils sont également de qualité. Je recommande donc sans problème.

Super.

It is well made quality item, but squareness can be off sometimes, depending on clamping location.

Good quality, happy. Very useful size.
