Now and then if there is a tricky spot to measure, I'll use this on the longest clear shot and finish up the rest of the distance with a tape measure. Just to note, these are "laser" sighted, but measure with sound, and is the reason for the bell shape on one side.Does a pretty good job and is most useful to measure the height of open rooms that would require a ladder otherwise.Since it does use sound reflection to measure distance, you must make sure nothing gets in the way to make the readings wrong. But no big deal in order to get around a problem area.
With this device I get an acurrate measurement in seconds. I am a Realtor, and in the past I would fumble with a measuring tape when sizing out rooms. It has become a very handy tool of my trade
Works great. You'll still need to keep your old fashioned tape measure around for precision measuring, but for measuring large areas this should be a no brainer purchase.I will mostly use the default linear setting, but it's nice to have the area and volume settings available for those rare occasions that it's needed.As others have mentioned, the 9V battery that this product takes is not included.
Much better than using a measuring tape but not so great for carrying it in your tool box or purse, it takes the same space, or maybe more as the mesurring tape. Great for personal use for quick measurements of rooms or empty spaces to estimate for materials. Beside the funny looking shape of this unit with the Glenn Miller "clarinet tip" on the side.it is great device. I would definately recommend it.
This is a handy tool, useful for figuring out the true square footage of a house/apartment. Take it along to real estate showings and find out what the real dimensions are, rather than what a broker may be telling you.
