I'm no construction pro. Just your average household son/brother/husband looking to help out. That being said, I used the stud finder @ my parents house to put up curtains in all the bedrooms and dining room, and also in our new apartment to put up some shelfing.
Each time, working it was a breeze (a lot of people tend to not follow the directions). Press the button, move it to your left until the light goes on and beeps. Then press the button and move it to the right until it beeps ... Read More

Rating: - It's not perfect, but it gets the job done.
I have been using this stud finder for numerous projects and have discovered that this tool is not always perfect, but if will help you find studs, not nails.

I got this stud finder bundled in with a Black and Decker cordless power drill set. It is pretty much worthless. It will beep every once in a while but then I can move it right back to the same area and it may or may not beep at all.

What a turd.
