Perfect for crown molding:
This gives an exact measurement every time! I don't know how I have been installing crown without it. Put an end to using a tape measure and having to guess where the wall actually ends (when measuring inside distances, you have to bend the tape measure and guess where the wall ends). This is also great because you don't need someone to hold the end of the tape measure. It is fast and exact.
Best Price:
The Bosch Laser Rangefinder is a very accurate tool for the price. Measured against a tape and was exactly the same. There are some features the would be nice if it had them but for about $150 less than other it is just fine. Measure in feet and inches instead if inches, but for the savings I can do the math.
many job solo:
this is to my work what the light saber was to luke skywalker i go for a kitchen estimate im out in minutes with all the measurements and no asking for help holding the dumb end of the tape anymore.most of all you dont need to move things around either.
Bosch DLR165K Laser Rangefinder:
Pro's:
Great tool, does what it's meant to do.
Takes measurements quickly and very accurately.
Easy to use, clear instructions manual.
Great value for money. Only possible con I can think of:
- you can only store 1 measurement in its memory, though you can add and substract data to/from memory.
