Bad laser LU2-2?

Is this a bad y axis on the laser?. X is always a striate line. y is always 10 times the width. Just got this thing but took to long to set it up to return. Ortur LU2-2

Looks like the beam is disturbed. Clean/exchange the lens and do a wall pointing test to check how the beam shape looks like.

In some cheap diode lasers the diode module produces a rectangular beam instead a square. This as to be with the construction of laser module and there is nothing you can do to it. (only change the entire module).
That what happens with me.
This are some pictures at the time:

rectangular beam:

Square beam from new laser module:
