Those that have been watching these laser measures will note that they cost $1000′s of dollars just a few years ago. This one is under $100. Wow. I guess that’s the good news. The bad news is that you do give up a bit for the cheaper price.

I have a Disto laser measure that I got for about $400 a year ago. It has Leica opticals just like this Stanley unit. Its accuracy is +/- 1/16″ at 650 feet. The Stanley unit has an accuracy of +/- 1/4″ at up to 100 ft. but note that a target is required over 50 ft. I have confirmed the 50 ft. range claim, but it seems to have a good range.

If you don’t need the extreme accuracy, this unit is great. Its the smallest laser measure I’ve ever seen, and its pretty simple to use. Press the button once, the laser is on, press again, it measures. It also can calculate areas, volumes and add or subtract multiple measurements.

While the specs. do mention accuracy, they don’t mention repeatability, which also seems pretty very good. Sometimes, repeatability is more important than accuracy.

In any case, if you can get away with the 1/4″ accuracy, this is a great unit for the price.

Note: Don’t be confused by other cheap devices claiming to be laser measures. If they are under $50, they aren’t. They use ultrasonic sound and have a laser pointer built-in. Even though they look precise because of the laser pointer, they aren’t. An ultrasonic beam at 60 ft. away can be 60 ft. wide. They give a reading, but its hard to tell exactly WHAT they are reading. With this device, you know exactly what you are measuring because it lights up red.
