Strait-Line 64020 Stud Finder

Product Description

Amazon.com

Sure, there are other stud finders out there. But not like this one. Here's why: It locates a stud through wallboard up to 1-1/2 inches deep. It turns itself on and off automatically with surface contact. It auto-calibrates after each scan. The LCD signal is clear, bright and easy to read. And best of all, you'll never have to mark the center with a pen or pencil again, because with a press of the marking button, this baby does it for you. It's like nothing we've ever seen, and something we think someone should have come up with a long time ago. The Stud Finder can be used by itself, but it's a slick duo with Strait-Line's Laser Level, which can map out the entire length of the stud for you. The Stud Finder is light but rugged and fits nicely in the palm of the hand. One of the best we've seen.--Kris Jensen-Van Heste

1.0 out of 5 stars The 'pot luck' stud finder, August 15, 2004

This stud finder just does not work! Stud finders purchased 15 years ago are 10 times more accurate than this unit. If you plan on buying this unit anyway, also purchase buy a couple of very small drill bits. Before you tear up your sheetrock, drill a pilot hole with small drill bit to test the stud finders results.

1.0 out of 5 stars Wouldn't know a stud if it bit it on its behind, December 19, 2003

I had never used an electronic stud finder before I purchased this particular tool. I took it over to my mom's house because we needed to hang something from the studs. This thing falsed left and right. It never seemed to find a single stud. In the end, I gave up on it.

I ended up taking it back and bought a Zircon StudSensor Pro SL. The Zircon had no problem finding a studs. On the first try, it found a stud. Then found the next one, and the next one. It was right every time (I was drilling into the wall). I'm just amazed at how bad the Strait-Line was compared to the Zircon.

---I ended up smashing this thing with a hammer--
It needed to be put out of my misery.
>Another fine product from crapco where quality is just a word<
I bought it to see if it would work better then the basic zircron I had. Well if completely arbitrary readings are what you want, this is your unit. A roll of wet toilet paper would work as well, and not have the annoying high pitched beeping.
man was this thing bad.
No ,really it was no good at all
seriously, it was junk
