I to have a Trupulse and find it useful certainly accurate on distances.
Heights always difficult in confined areas when you are unable to stand back
far enough, but often a case of getting your eye in. Check height measurement
against a known height i.e. your home or office.
I do have a Haglof but find it less useful but they are a lot cheaper.

I bought a Trupulse a few years ago. If I'm honest I don't really like it; it
commonly measures a distance of 25 metres when I think I'm nearer or further
away than that. However whenever I check it with a tape measure, or on one
occasion a Surveyor's extremely expensive load of kit, it seems to be about
right. So I'm being unreasonable; but because I doubt the thing's
measurements I end up wasting time checking them and checking them again,
which might be no bad thing. I suppose I save a bit of time over the Haglof
which still accompanies me to site.
I got mine from Positioning Resources on the grounds they were at the
conference and had got a cheap deal going. They were very helpful, "cheap"
being a relative concept in these matters of course.
