Summary: Essential for measuring rooms, very useful everywhere else
Comment: I bought this in frustration after trying to accurately measure several rooms of my house with a steel tape. Besides furniture being in the way, I found that my numbers weren't adding up with the tape if I measured the same distance two ways like going around the room or subtracting out small walls and stuff. With the laser, everything is dead on.

They say the accuracy is 1/4" over 100 feet and that seems true. You'll get slightly greater variation though in some cases because the device doesn't contain any sort of level and the case is not completely flat on any side. Therefore, it takes a little practice to know if you're shooting a straight line or a slight angle. An angle would add in a 1/8 or so here or there in large rooms, but it's pretty easy to get good at figuring out what the carpenters probably did for real. Don't do what I did and measure right at the corner or ceiling of a room. Because the drywall mud flares out a little at intersections, the room is actually slightly smaller in the corners in many cases. So get a foot or so away from any other wall and eyeball if the beam is landing in a similar spot across the room.

I still use my steel tape in some circumstances, certainly for woodworking of any kind and in some remodeling cases too. But this works great with that for anything over a couple feet and is superior for inside dimensions of any sort.

The math features (calculating area, adding, etc.) might be handy, but in reality they are very basic and you don't have memory to do things like subtract windows and doors as you go, so it's not really a replacement for a good piece of paper and maybe a spreadsheet or construction calculator.

Summary: Must have for DIYs
Comment: Excellent tool. I use it about the house for home projects all the time. Very accurate. Perfect for one person measurement tasks. Always happy to not have to cope with floppy, droopy measuring tapes. I recommend it.

Summary: Right tool for the right job.
Comment: I work in architecture and I often have to take as-built measurements of projects. I borrowed one of these and it was a great compliment to a traditional tape. Ordered my own shortly thereafter. Great for long overall dimensions and to confirm multiple tape readings. Cut my measuring time in half which, in this business, is appreciated time savings.

I highly recommend the product, but would caution against throwing out that old tape measure. This is the right tool for certain tasks - long, straight measurements, but keep the tape handy when the distance is too short or you don't have a clear line of sight. It works exceedingly better than the old sonar kind and the functions are pretty intuitive after a few minutes.

Summary: Accurate, quick, and easy to use!
Comment: I bought this for my husband because he measures floors for his job. Before this, he used the regular tape measures and it would break in 6 months or less so we decided to invest in this laser tape measure. He said that it's very accurate, quick and easy to use. It only needs a 1/2 in. of wall space to measure.

Summary: FatMax Laser Measurer
Comment: The first blister packed unit I bought from Home Despot was 3/4" off in 10' which was not as accurate as promised and far too inaccurate for my use. HD was good about replacing it but it took me 5 units (opened and tested at the store) before I found an accurately calibrated unit. Check before you pay! I've been using it pretty regularly for nearly a year now and wouldn't be with out it.


Editorial Reviews:

In the past, the trouble with long-distance measuring was that it could be cumbersome, time-consuming, and potentially inaccurate. But with the FatMax Tru Laser measuring system, laser technology solves the problems of yesteryear with point-and-shoot ease. Perfect for people who need to measure farther than they can reach, the FatMax Tru Laser turns complicated surveying into a one-man job. Just point the laser, press the button, and voila -- instant, accurate measurements for do-it-yourselfers or contract professionals.

Take measurements indoors, outdoors, and in hard-to-reach areas without complicated set-ups, ladders, or climbing. Forget about measuring poles and wobbly steel tapes. With the FatMax Tru Laser you can calculate length, width, and height from any reference point in the room, and you can even determine the available area or volume. Great for appraisers, carpenters, plumbers, technicians, floor and tile layers, and painters, the FatMax is as versatile as it is easy to use.
Calculate dimensions for tiling projects.
Estimate for window fittings.
Tackle complex painting projects.
Lay carpet with ease.

Great for Tiling Estimations
Just imagine the number of measurements and dimensions involved in even the simplest tiling project. Reduce the waste and frustration from re-tiling and re-cutting by getting it right the first time with this lightweight, portable measuring device.

Simplify Window Fitting
Window fitting normally relies on measuring tapes, but what if you've got dozens of windows spaced over a large front -- for example, an apartment block? Measuring the old-fashioned way would be tiresome and time-consuming, not to mention dangerous. But with the FatMax Tru Laser, complex calculations and production planning is streamlined and safe.

Painting is a Piece of Cake
Indoor measurements are inconvenient and imprecise, primarily because of the inefficient manner in which they're carried out. Walking back and forth with floppy, difficult-to-manage tapes or enlisting the help of friends can double your work time and give you a backache, but the FatMax Tru Laser measures like a pro. Just step inside, point and click, and the room's exact area, volume, size, and length are right at your fingertips.

Carpet Laying Can Be Uncomplicated
Let the FatMax Tru Laser eliminate transcription errors by doing the math for you. That way, you only need to do the job once -- and you can abandon cumbersome, repetitive tasks like stooping to plant and arrange measuring tapes.

Enjoy Immediate, Pinpoint Accuracy
This innovative point-and-shoot laser tool measures distances up to 100 feet with an accuracy that's +/- just a 1/4-inch. Try getting that kind of precision from an old steel tape! And don't be fooled by cheaper sonic measuring tools that claim similar technology. They may cost less, but they're notoriously inaccurate -- with precision that varies up to 4 inches at only 50 feet. So if you need numbers that are right on the money, don't skimp with inferior tools. Stick with the Tru Laser if you want it done right the first time, every time.

Applications
Use the FatMax Tru Laser to quickly and accurately measure room sizes, ceiling heights, and long runs of fencing and railings; and it also performs addition and subtraction, calculates area, and determines volume. This advanced tool is a fantastic choice for almost any professional contractor, designer, technician, or appraiser.
The FatMax Tru Laser offers exceptional accuracy.
