A and C weighting change the number, not the noise · review
Brandson Sound level meter, 35–130 dB review
A 35 to 130 dB handheld meter with a MAX function and a large backlit display. Its title carries the word "geeicht" — a manufacturer claim, reported here as one.
What the figures leave us with A usable household meter with a claim in its title that this site will not repeat as fact.
A straightforward meter, and a word that needs addressing.
What the manufacturer publishes
Precise readings across a wide range, from a whisper to a rock concert, with a stated resolution. A MAX function displaying the highest value determined during a measurement period. A large display described as easy to read at arm’s length, with illumination for dark environments. A range of 35 to 130 dB.
About the word in the title
The listing title uses “geeicht”, the German term for legally verified. Verification of a measuring instrument is a formal procedure that produces a certificate with a validity period, carried out by an accredited body. Nothing in this listing indicates that such a certificate accompanies the instrument.
This site reports what manufacturers state and does not present any instrument as calibrated or verified. For any measurement that has to stand up, the requirement is a classified meter and a calibrator, used before and after the measurement.
What it is good for
Comparisons. Before and after fitting a seal, one room against another, this machine against that one. Those are real questions and this meter answers them.
Availability
No such listing: the American Amazon shop answers the reference with a search box rather than a page.

What gets asked here
The title says "geeicht" — is it calibrated?
That is the manufacturer's word, reported here as such. This site does not present any instrument as calibrated, and legal verification of a measuring instrument is a formal process with a certificate and an expiry. Treat the claim as marketing until a certificate accompanies it.
What accuracy does Brandson state?
None appears in the listing. The Tolesum and XRCLIF meters in this hub state ± 1.5 dB with conditions.
What is MAX for?
It holds the loudest level recorded during a measurement period — useful for capturing a passing truck or a machine cycle you cannot watch the display through.

30–130 dB · ± 1.5 dB · A and C weighting · 43,000-record logger · DC output
A logging meter storing up to 43,000 readings for export to a PC, with A and C weighting, a three-color LED warning and a DC output for external recording.
Best for: Establishing what a noise does over hours or days, which a handheld reading cannot show.
30–130 dB · ± 2.0 dB · A and C weighting · fast and slow · 4-digit 0.1 dB
The only meter here offering both A and C weighting, which is what separates a reading that follows human hearing from one that includes low-frequency energy.
Best for: Low-frequency noise — plant, traffic, bass through a wall — that A-weighting under-reports.
30–130 dB · ± 1.5 dB at 94 dB / 1 kHz · A-weighted · fast and slow response
A 30 to 130 dB meter publishing its accuracy with the conditions it applies at — ± 1.5 dB at 94 dB and 1 kHz — with A-weighting and fast and slow response modes.
Best for: Getting a sense of a noise problem, with a figure whose conditions are stated.
