Excellent little tool. I keep finding uses for it everytime I use it. Many functions yet to explore. So glad I came across this item. A real time saver in certain situations

While I did not look for the features included with this item, I can certainly say that they have exceeded expectation in performance of my normal tasks

The Bosch exceeded my expectations. Very easy to navigate functions. Very user friendly for a multifunction tool. Read accurately even off of black surfaces in my darkroom. Auto orientation of the display works better than expected. Wish it had a waterproof rating like IP67. Only had it for about a month and haven’t tried all functions yet. Cell phone app needs work or I just don’t understand the instructions. May update this review later.

This product made field measuring an extremely large building, a lot easier.

Easy to use and accurate.

Works very well indoors. Outdoors in full sunlight can be a challenge I now understand why tripods and large targets are used with lasers. It did everything expected it just gets hard in full sunlight to see if you are on target and measuring to the right point I would say anything over 15′ gets tough and being older that small dot gets awfully small.

Excellent lazer. Easy to use and read.

Excellent!

This thing is pretty awesome. I had the lower model and returned it for screen was hard to read and tiny letters. This one is much easier to see. I highly recommend it for larger color font

I was always skeptical about using these digital readers until I saw a carpet installer use one to measure the area I was getting carpet in. Then I saw another when he measured my attic space for insulation. So, I decided to buy this one because of the reviews I read. Well, I am so glad I did! It took me long enough to buy one, but I love my Bosch Laser Measurer!!! I recommend this item to anyone who has to measure square areas accurately or any distances accurately. Yes, this one works awesome!

Pretty easy to get up and working with it. Several different modes that are easy to access. Haven’t used the blue tooth feature yet but will, I’ve only had it for a

Works great so far
Malinda Bode (verified owner) –
Works great so far. Love that it gives continuous readings rather than having to press button and hope your aim was good!
Joannie Gusikowski (verified owner) –
Worked great. Very accurate. Did not need an assistant, like with a analog tape measure.
Abigale Jacobson (verified owner) –
Overall, the Bosch BLAZE is a great addition to my toolbox. However, measuring anything over 30′, especially outside, is difficult because the laser dot is so small. Otherwise, great measuring device.
Naomi Ankunding (verified owner) –
Excellent equipment, precise and the Bluetooth capability makes floor planing fast.
Cornell Roberts (verified owner) –
Very useful tool
Catharine Yost (verified owner) –
Great tool a ton of useful features and the app is awesome for laying out a project. Glad I purchased this item. It is extremely accurate as confirmed against a normal tape measure.
Skylar Shanahan (verified owner) –
It’s great, I love it. It also measures angles and several other functions.
Agnes Wiegand (verified owner) –
The thing measures distance well. I certainly benefited from using it. However, I was disappointed in one respect. The indirect-measure functions gave me lengths/distances that appeared to be about 2% in error. If 2% is within your acceptance range, then go for it. Bosch has not commented on my email asking for comment/explanation on the perceived error.
