I'm trying to decide which laser level to buy between two options: the Milwaukee Alkaline Cross-Line Green Laser Level and the DeWalt DW088CG-XJ Cross-Line Green Laser Level. I normally stick with Milwaukee tools since I like their brand, but I've heard the DeWalt model lasts longer and looks nicer. Is the Milwaukee one a better choice in terms of quality and price, or should I go for DeWalt?

If you're considering durability and performance, I’d lean towards the DeWalt. A laser level is something you don’t want to skimp on, especially if you use it daily. Milwaukee tools are great, but in this case, I think the DeWalt would give you a bit more value in the long run, especially with how reliable people say it is.
I totally get your dilemma! Milwaukee does have a solid reputation, but DeWalt's laser levels are known for their durability. If you’re working on projects that require precision, the extra longevity of the DeWalt might be worth it, even if it looks better too. In my experience, DeWalt's green lasers are super bright and easy to see outdoors. But if you're already invested in Milwaukee, their laser level could still serve you well for the price.
Yeah, but don't underestimate the Milwaukee model! I've had mine for a bit, and it has held up really well under tough conditions. Plus, it's pretty user-friendly. Depends on your specific needs and how often you plan to use it.
