Cheap laser measure?

[quackfly]

Just wonderind if anyone out there has bought a laser measure? there are some very cheap ones out there for under a score, I cant find any customer reviews for them and am wondering if they are accurate enough for domeasic measuring up?

I have used them on commercial jobs but never domestic, on the jobs I've used them I got different readings every time, I don't trust them, and it wasn't a cheapo either.

sorry was askin about a laser measure not level, but ur right those laser levels are a bit of a gimmick imo

Laser level good for concrete and screed floors but can't imagine they are accurate enough for tile face. I got a laser measure from a place in Corby - ex Argos stock - black and decker. Not really that impressed. It's no where near as accurate as tape.
I always try to remember to measure twice as a double check but with the laser I always get different answers. I guess it depens how accurate you want the measurements.
