Has anyone seen them or bought one?

Seems cheap enough.

Was it worth it ?
 
Plenty of cheap laser levels about. Mine was £30 10 years ago from B&Q.
Seen the one you mentioned. Just another cheap one. Probably ok like all the others
 
If you watch skillbuilder laser level tests on YouTube it's interesting.
I do like the green lasers although mine is red. Tests say no difference but I think green is better to look at.
Depends what you want from it I guess. I used mine for wallpapering above windows and door.
Checking alignment of shelves.
That was about it.
String plumb line and sprit level mostly
 

I just seen this fir 16 quid from B&Q Might just buy it

I might be wrong, but it looks as though it is not self leveling. If so, you will be relying on the two small levelling bubbles on the top of the unit. That means you will need to set it up, walk to the other side of the room and use a long level to check the accuracy, then walk back to the unit to adjust it slightly.... and rinse and repeat.

I note that it says that the line thickness varies from 0.5cm to 1cm.

I guess it is better than guessing if something is level though. Sorry, that is the most positive remark I can make.

I just want it to install things like downlights and sockets etc.

No mate, I prefer honesty. Rather save my money than buy something completely sh1te lol.

Back to square 1. Need to find another one.
 
Just buy the tiktok one.
It's green
Self leveling
Cheap.
What could possibly go wrong. Ha.
 
I have the Magnusson one from Screwfix, does the job well, on offer at £30 ATM.

My missus has bought stuff from B&Q via the non B&Q sellers and it's been a nightmare trying to return stuff.
