The product is packed in a beautiful, soft, zippered case. It appears to be well built and has the looks of a quality instrument. I can't test the actual performance because after a day of frustration I decided to send it back, here's why: 1) Very poor user manual (printed instructions tell you how to download the app you need to use to to receive limited instructions. The app instructs how to select different options but does NOT explain why or how each option should be used for best results Instructions provided in the app. 3) I read that the level needs to be calibrated manually (although it also says it's factory calibrated). So I followed the step-by-step instructions to calibrate (the ONLY good instructions were for this process) and it said "Calibration Failed". I've tried this over and over without success. I decided to put it back in the box and send it back.
