Fantastic tool.

I'm glad I went for the branded option; I love Trend products and their excellent aftermarket service levels.
The product arrived in perfect condition, on time and upon opening the stainless-steel rules and digital readout display were clearly legible and easy to set, even with my ageing eyes.
(Cheaper alternatives were only £2 or 3 difference), having saved the money by using inferior and less durable plastic rules.
The Rule hinge has excellent resistance, retaining the desired angle between measurement and marking out, transfer to the work.
Perfect for setting my Mitre Gauge, Table saw, bandsaw, router jigs etc.,

Could be better

I bought this to replace a cheap plastic one that just wasn’t rigid enough. Unfortunately it only goes to 1 decimal place & doesn’t measure in degree minutes, just decimals, unlike my cheap plastic one. So I’ve gained a nice rigid tool but lost some accuracy.Read full review...

Compact and accurate.

Easy to use, compact and accurate. The power button can completely shut off the device and not just the display. Wish I'd bought one years ago. Pity there's no protective box / pouch included but still worth the money.Read full review...

Great device, easy to use

Easy to use, good value and well made, used it more than I thought already, much easier than a angle and protractor to set mitre saws etc, angle can be set to read obtuse or acute angles, very pleased with it so far.Read full review...

Accurate piece of kit

Bought to determine the internal and external angles of a bay window in order to fit new woodwork. Highly accurate and trustworthy. I had considered similar looking, cheaper variants from other buyers, but opted for this one as a trusted seller with good reviews. Not disappointed. Just make sure you pop the battery out after each use as the on/off button is quite sensitive (I know it has auto shut-off, but better safe than sorry)Read full review...

Trend angle finder rule is a useful addition to anyones toolbox

Indispensable tool for installing coving in an average house with no 90 degree walls.
Also used it to setup my mitre saw.

Since I do not have another (more precise tool) it is hard to say how accurate Trend angle finder is, but so far all cuts made based on the result returned by this tool seem to be in the right ball park.Read full review...

Essential marking out tool

Makes both setting out and checking so much easier. A great tool that I have used whilst building a timber frame garage workshop.

Only problem is the very small size of the on-off and reset buttons so be careful not to hit the reset button by mistake.Read full review...

Let down by no screen light.

Accurate and easy to use,saves time and well made but let down by screen not having back light, difficult to read in poor light.

Business as usual from Trend

I am beginning to trust this brand more and more. There are a lot of duplicate items on the market that Trend produce...but they seem to be that much better. Yes they cost a bit more, but the money spent on Trend products by myself, has so far been worth the investment. Read full review...

Saves so much time

This bit of kit is amazing-don’t know why I’ve struggled on so many years without buying one of these, bought it to help as I was putting MDF cladding up a staircase & had lots of angles & corners to cut. This saved so much time for me as I used it to set angle on my chop saw the get the correct time. Absolutely brilliant piece of kit. I have never been happier with an online purchase.
