Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Works
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: 2 out of 5 stars - Works, but only sometimes
I have no idea how thick the walls have been when I've used this tool, so chalk up my complaints to naivety if you like.

I can't begin to explain how frustrating it is to find a stud's edge in one direction, but in the other direction, nothing. It's like a paradox. This stud only exists if you move right to left?? This happens over and over and over with this tool. I'm completely a layman when it comes to home repairs and handymanly work. Using this tool, I found a stud, mounted ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - 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.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Horrible product!
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. This past year I tried to use it again when hanging up a tool-holding track system in my garage. I ended up finding the studs eventually but not after putting around 7 extra holes in my track system. What a turd.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Awesome Stud Finder
This stud finder works exactly like it's supposed to. It gets the job done. Great product.
