Bought this product when it was on sale for a member’s deal. Great electronic measuring tool for the sales price. Easy to navigate the menu and change the settings. Can measure distance and area with ease. Can store measurements for future reference. I found it to be accurate within 1/16” when compared to a manual tape measure. Very easy to use just point and shoot. Even has a level indicator to help ensure a level and accurate measurement. Overall great experience using the tool.

Awesome tool
I always wanted 1 of these but did not want to pay the price. Lowes had a special buy, (half price) and I decided to get it. It is very neat. I have not used the app yet, but all of the functions are amazing. The green light is much easier to see than the red light on the level.

Piece of Junk
Does not work, the green laser does NOT come on until the measure button is pressed so good luck imagining where the laser might point when you get it to show I thought I was doing something wrong, but I just leqarned I'm not. It doesn't work and judging from reviews Bosch is most certainly aware and still sells this worthless paperweight. I bought mine more that 30 days ago, and was so frustrated when I tried to use it hours after I bought it, and I put it away. Today I decided to give it ...

Amazing features
This product exceeded my expectations with the features provided, not only does it function as distance measurement, but you can use it as a level and even map rooms digitally on the app. Exceeded my expectations of just simply being able to measure distances in rooms.

Amazing little tool
This is an amazing device. To start out it’s small and compact. It comes with two holder types. A nylon case is provided that hooks to any belt with a hook and loop type strap that is about the width of an average belt. It opens easily yet stays secure. There is also a metal bracket that slides onto the laser tool and is secured with a screw. The screw can store on the metal bracket to help keep up with it when stored. Both can be used. The metal bracket attached to the tool will fit in ...
Awesome tool for the $$$ ...
Just picked this up at Lowes the other day (model GLM165-27CG for $160 using Lowes for Pros" discount) and put it to work immediately. As I'm writing this review, I see the price just went up $20! Good thing I bought it when I did. The Instructions COULD have been a bit better, but with enough time & experimenting I was able to figure out pretty much everything. I used this to get measurements at a marina/campsite on Lake Erie. The attached photos show me using the Dewalt DW089LG Green laser le...
Quick, easy and accurate
Easy to use. Accurate. Quick. Ability to save and display five measurements at a time. I don't know why I didn't get one sooner.

Very Handy and Easy to Use
This tool has several functions: distance, area, volume, and digital level. It uses 2-AA batteries, but also has an optional Lithium Ion rechargeable battery pack, and optional power adapter. It has a screw mount so it can be used with a tripod. It is easy to use, which is good, because the manuals could use some refinement. You can select units and rounding precision. It is accurate to +/- 1/16 inch (+/- 1.5 mm). The green laser is easily visible in any lighting conditions. It has...
Lots of features in small package
Smaller than my previous Bosch lazer measure which I had for 12 years, so fits hand better. Lots of features, easy to read display with large numbers and big buttons. I like the app possibility but havent learned enough about the app to comment.
