FrosBros82 Posted February 25, 2015 Report Share Posted February 25, 2015 Gpl5s GCL25 Does anyone have a 5 point laser made by Bosch? Going to buy a laser soon and I am looking for feedback. Not really sure what one to buy, the GPL5S which does plumb and square ($199.99). Or the GCL25 which has a combination cross line ($349.99). Ant information or feedback would be appreciated.

NERemodeling Posted February 25, 2015 Report Share Posted February 25, 2015 i don't have either of those but i do have two bosch lasers and they are both great! out of the two you listed i would say if you can swing the extra cost then go with the gcl25 it is going to give you a lot more functionality. I have the bosch 2 point plumb bob laser gpl2 which works very nicely and i also have the bosch gll3-80 which is a 3 axis, 360 degree laser that thing will do everything you need and more but you pay for it. another cool laser they just came out with is the gll2-20 its much cheaper than previous 360 degree options out there.. not sure if that would fit the bill for you 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrosBros82 Posted February 26, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 26, 2015 Yeah, it seems like it would be handy for the price. I never complain about getting an expensive tool, however, I do complain about getting something too cheap that doesn't do what I need it to do. I might just fork over the loot and see what happens.

NERemodeling Posted February 27, 2015 Report Share Posted February 27, 2015 there is nothing worse than spending money on a tool that doesn't do what you need it to do.. I'm a firm believer in spending a little more when necessary to make sure the tool works well all the time and makes my job easier Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madman_us Posted February 27, 2015 Report Share Posted February 27, 2015 i agree with that, spend some more money and its definitely worth it. go big or go home always go with that when i buy my tools ehm bosch tools the GCL25 and the GLL2-20 are both really nice.GLL3-80 has a few more features but double price of the GLL2-20 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrosBros82 Posted March 2, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 2, 2015 Thanks for the response, since you seem to have loads of Bosch tools, I will keep your advice when deciding what to buy. Thanks, FB82 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NERemodeling Posted March 15, 2015 Report Share Posted March 15, 2015 man.. thats one hell of a laser for $220-250!! i probably would have bought that instead of my GLL3-80 if it was out when i bought mine.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
