Works as described – 60ft Ultrasonic Tape Measure With Laser Pointer Reviews

Involvement:Expert (understands the inner workings) - Ownership:1 day to 1 week

Pros:
Works very well. I test from 50cm to 10m (but the limit is 60ft), and it seems accurate.
Cons:
In the manual, there's no information if the measure includes the device dimension. Looks like it does not.
Built quality is not very good, but is passable.
Other:
For this price, it is the best electronic measure you can possibly get.
Bottomline:
A must buy if you often use regular tapes. It is easy to use and fairly precise.
It does not measure AREA or VOLUME, it is just a calculation. To find the area of a room you have to measure two dimensions and store on a memory. Then you press "area" and the memory buttons where you store the dimensions. The device calculates the area based on your previous measures. The same about the volume.
