Up until a few years ago, it was almost impossible for the average person to afford a digital laser rangefinder of any kind; the fact that they were also unreliable didn't help either. Now with the advancements of newer technologies, and cheaper costs, DLR's have come down quite a bit in price over the past few years. The Bosch DLR165K is also a lot cheaper then most other DLR's because it is capable of about half the distance range. This for most people is a great thing, because who really needs to measure more then 165 feet? If you do need more distance, you are looking to pay about double the price, for double the distance...

Pros: So easy to use, you don't need the instructions. Very accurate.

Cons: Doesn't measure in running inches. Non-square sides and corners.

Handy Quick measurements

Pros: Fast

Cons: Dot hard to see in sunlight

I use mine for doing estimates, which it is the absolute greatest thing at. Just stand in one corner of a room and shoot the length and width in about ten seconds flat. Takes longer to move yourself, than to take the measurement.
I guess I'm to old school to really trust this. I've yet to commit a cut solely on the measurement I've gotten from this. I don't really like to use a ruler either, unless I have to.
