I have the Stabila, but as above Dewalt Hilti, down to personal preference really.

I just bought a dewalt DW088, seems ok for the money, it doesn't project a line downwards, onto the floor too well tho

Just to add make sure you go for a self leveling type.

I use the DeWalt too and mount it on a Bosch pole. It does fit with a bit of conjuring and gives a good stable but adjustable mounting.

i might go for the stabila lax 50, seems pretty cheap and its got some good reviews. thanks guys

I've got the bosch GLL 280 and it's a great bit of kit. Find the tripod a bit annoying though, the spread takes up a lot of space and it's not that easy to adjust. Plus I tend to put hardboard down over the floor and it tends to wobble a bit. Got a pole on order, I reckon that's the way to go, looking forward to breaking that out, hopefully thursday.

Just had a peek at the selection on Trade Tiler, I see a couple of folks have the stabila (and it's the cheapest!), would you say it is good value or is it worth spending a few more quid for the Dewalt or Bosch?

Hi Bri, I have used the Stabila for the last 5/6 years. I find it very accurate, I had the pole with it , but modified a tripod so I can use both, I prefare the tripod.
