BOSCH BT160 63 in. Aluminum Contractors' Tripod

So easy to use. Stable accessory for my Bosch laser level. Quality product b

5 stars all the way, actually 6 stars be better. Just picking this up, can feel the quality, hard to describe but light years better than the $40-70 tripods found everywhere, not even close. Super rigid when open, no hokey lame balancing, has 2 bubble level circle windows, 1 for the tripod, the other for the rotating pad where the laser level sits. The up/down crank works excellent, smooth with good metal grind on the gear teeth. Liked this so much gave away my other tripod for camera/ laser level use. If this is a negative, is one, this sadly does not come with a carry case or bag. Also, no instructions included either. But this is pretty self-explanatory. Thanks Bosch for a wonderful tripod.

Great well made! Works great!

I bought this for my DeWalt Green laser, being sick and tired of the flimsy tripods typically recommended for lasers. It seems there sre only cheap/flimsy and expensive/industrial-grade tripods, nothing in-between. My main gripe with this tripod is that the legs don't lock in (at least) one position. I'm installing cabinets for a big kitchen and the floor is high-gloss porcelain tiles, so the legs don't get a firm grip, even with rubber tips. Hence, I deducted one star. On a side note, I was unable to find what I thought would be a common accessory for this tripod when used with a laser. The elevation is easily adjustable, and the distance to the subject is not significant. But a left/right adjustment so you don't have to constantly try and move three legs without rotating the laser is a HUGE need that seems to have gone overlooked.

Great product. It is so easy to work with.

This is a great stand for the price. I think it’s getting bad reviews because people are confused about a few things: 1. This is a tool stand. It’s not really for cameras. While it will work ok with something small like an iPhone or a GoPro (you need the right attachment), it’s not designed for range of motion or to be held at awkward angles, it’s designed to be set up flat, locked in place, and then fine adjusted for height. If you are looking for a camera stand, you will find this product has the wrong features for that application. 2. Since this is not a full-range, ball-bearing style headmount, there is an individual tightening pin for everything, INCLUDING THE HANDLE WHICH ROTATES TO TIGHTEN FORWARD/BACKWARD PITCH. I almost returned it over this, and even though it shows you on the side of the box (duh), I saw photos of tipped cameras so I’m not the only one who missed it. Familiarize yourself with what tightens what and only loosen what you are adjusting. Of course, it’s not going to be sturdy if you forget to tighten all of the pins. 3. It’s a $30 stand. I am more than happy and it exceeded my expectations as a new homeowner getting deeper into DIY (the listed height doesn’t include the elevator, which gives you another 14” or so, omni-directional mini bubble-level tells you if the floor is off), but it does contain plastic parts such as the elevator crank and the leg locks that I wouldn’t consider heavy-duty. While they don’t feel chincy and cheap, if I were a contractor I wouldn’t throw this in the back of my truck with a bunch of other tools and expect it to hold up. If you’re using this for its intended purpose, it works great and is easy to fold and store. Pros and photographers will regret cutting corners here.

Great deal. One of my favorite tripods. great range of adjustments for height. Light and durable

Light weight, nice threads for the scope base. Worked well.

Valued for money.

Incredibly sturdy. I've taken off the carrying strap as it makes clamping one of the legs very awkward.

Bir çok kez tripot almak ve fazla para vermek istememişimdir. Ancak araştırdığımda çok marka makul fiyat olsada kalitelerini beğenmediğimden dolayı almamıştım. sonuç olarak profesyonel amaçla kullanmayacağım. BOSCH markasına olan inancımdan fiyat dengeside bana uyduğundan hemen sipariş ettim. Ürün çok hızlı 1 günde teslim edildi. Ürün gerçekten fiyatına göre çok kaliteli ve sağlam görünüyor. Malzeme kalitesi tatmin edici seviyede. Kullanacağım alan telefon veya gopro bağlayarak time laps vs. gibi çekimlerde kullanmak..

Overall, quite a sturdy unit, with the choice of using spikes on the tripod legs. Good value for what it provides. Having used several camera tripods, I expected more from this unit. There is only the adjustment for height - and even then, there is no mechanism to lock the splay of the tripod legs. The height crank was plastic and if the tripod accidentally falls on this crank, I think the crank would crack. Also, the mount uses a 5/8" screw, not a camera screw of 1/4". Inexpensive adapters are easily available, though.

Excelente calidad y terminados inmejorables. Todo es de calidad extraordinaria. La marca Bosch es sinónimo de calidad insuperable.
