High Accuracy Laser Distance Meter 165ft/50m Kiprim LD50E Laser Measurement tool with Larger Backlit LCD,2 Bubble Levels,M/in/Ft Unit Switching and Pythagorean Mode for indoor or outdoor Use

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Not the most intuitive when it come to doing area scans etc (negative thing from being used to touch screens these days), but once you get used to it - awesome device. Accurate!

Given many of the laser measures on the market are far more expensive I was somewhat dubious about the quality this would be. I needn't have been worried, it appears to be good quality and certainly does the job.I only needed some measurements of my loft for insulating, so 100% accuracy wasn't an issue (although I'm sure the device is accurate), but given the distance was over 48ft. (with a wall in the middle) and I only had a 16ft tape measure it would have been a pain to try to measure manually. With the laser, it took all of a few seconds (and is probably more accurate than I would have been).As a device I will only use a few times, the £18 price tag isn't too bad, I'm sure any professional DIYer's or contractors may well prefer a much more expensive brand name and will probably get some additional functionality that this cheaper unit does not have, but it did what I needed it to and did it quickly and without any fuss. Good enough for me. :)

Really good and accurate for the price. The ability to be able to measure from the front or the back of the device is very helpful, and the little spirit levels are a great help. It would be better if it was also a laser spirit level, but you can’t ask too much for this price. A good purchase.

Excellent and easy to use.

What a great tool for any DIY person . No more guessing or bending a measurement tape. It’s very quick to read the distance and it’s very accurate. Easy to use and comes in a nice pouch for safe storage in the toolbox

I purchased the 100m version (Mmm..I think 100m is on the outrageously optimistic side). It's quite intuitive and easy to use. Smaller than I thought. Decent for internal measurements, and a nice, clear display. Good luck trying to use it outside in daylight as the red laser dot isn't visible on anything over a 3 or 4 metre distance. I guess the small reflective card (supplied) is to be used in these cases, as well as on long internal measurements. But try hitting that small card over 15 or 20m in broad daylight when you can't see the red dot until it meets the little card - you will be there all day. I bought it for some garden measurements, so I'll either have to do these at night or revert to the good old steel tape measure. In no way is this a viable outdoor alternative to pro instruments like Leica Disto etc that I used to use at work, but those are five times the price. You generally get what you pay for...

I use it to measure the size of a room. I don't need to be accurate to the millimeter, it's good enough for me. It saves me a lot of time compared to a tape measure.

This has made measuring around the home so much easier and quicker to do on my own. It took a few measures using both it and a tape measure to trust that it was accurate but it has genuinely been spot on every time. It’s so easy to use, easy to read and I like that it keeps track of the most recent measurements. The size is great - slightly too big for a pocket unfortunately, but perfect for seeing quickly in the tool bag and the wrist loop makes it easy enough to carry around moving job to job. The target card is handy for measuring free standing items - I use a small amount of blue tack to adhere it to an opposite edge which works well.
