Tools and Hardware Reviews of Black & Decker BDL500S BullsEye Auto-Leveling Interior Line Laser/ 1/4-Inch at 40 Feet Sonic Measurer Combination Tool
Customer Review: Warning: Flimsy product & not a "Sonic Measurer" as the product title says
Summary: 1 Stars
First of all, there is nothing 'SONIC' in the measuring capabilities of this tool. You need to roll the tool across a smooth surface to measure distance between two points.
The unit is made of cheap plastic with a couple of rubber grips. The leveler on/off button feels as if its going to come off if I use it one more time. The buttons in the front get stuck into the unit sometimes and need to give them a few seconds to come out.
When I ordered this tool (my bad that I did not read the complete description of the product on Amazon), I was expecting a tool to measure distances that uses 'sonic' (ultrasound, to be more precise) waves. Rolling the unit on a surface to measure distances is absolutely not something I had in mind.
Though I didn't like the bulkiness of this unit, I was prepared for that already as I read that in a couple of previous reviews on this product and checked the product dimensions. But if you need to roll it to measure distance, you need a wide rolling path.
I don't think it's worth even <$40 price I paid. I am sending it back to Amazon.

Description of Black & Decker BDL500S BullsEye Auto-Leveling Interior Line Laser/ 1/4-Inch at 40 Feet Sonic Measurer Combination Tool
Auto-leveling laser and digital tape measure, 2 tools in 1. Easy to read LCD display. Auto-leveling laser level levels automatically without adjustments. Square referenceedges projects perpendicular laser line. 3 laser lines projects level plumb and horizontal laser lines. Accuspace evenly spaces items along wall. Digital tape measures accurate measurements across work surface. Includes protective storage case.It wasn't that long ago when I heard about the very first laser level, and now the market is flooded with dozens of different models. However, despite the widespread proliferation of these tools, few can compete with the features, versatility and price of the new Black & Decker BullsEye BDL500S.
This sophisticated, yet easy-to-use, electronic device is actually two tools in one: First, it's a bright-light laser level that projects both horizontal and vertical lines. It's equipped with an auto-leveling feature that permits quick setup without sacrificing accuracy. The lasers are accurate within 1/8 inch over 20 feet.
Second, the BDL500S is a digital measurer that lets you quickly and accurately measure distances up to 999 feet! Simply roll the tool across a wall, floor, ceiling or other flat surface, and the measurement is automatically displayed on the LCD screen. It's also equipped with a really cool feature alled AccuSpace, which allows you to electronically measure a wall, and punch in the number of pictures you want to hang. The tool then automatically divides the distance and tells how far apart to hang the pictures for equal spacing in between.
The BDL500S is nearly 11 inches tall and weighs about two pounds. Use it to hang framed photos, paintings and other wall-mounted objects, and to precisely align floorboards, ceramic tile and suspended-ceiling grids. The tool comes with a protective storage case and two AA-size batteries. -- Joseph Truini
