What owners single out
In their words
“Super easy purchase process and it was delivered quickly. I really like the laser. Simple to setup and use. The receiver is pretty nice too. We used it to set grade for this wall!”

“Overall this product has worked as expected. The laser level itself seems to be built very well and is easy to use. The tri-pod legs work ok, but they are cheaply made compared to competitors I have used in the past. The main downfall I have with my order is the grade rod. When unboxing the grade rod, the black plastic pieces that wrap around the tops of each section had multiple pieces broken off”
