When I first saw this level in Amazon.com catalog, I thought it was a misprint. I mean who buys a 59" level, what design engineer suggested this? Well I bought the set since I have most of the other Stabila levels and it was offered at a great sale price of $99 for the set. Once I got this set, I discovered WHY the 59". FIrst of all, it spans 4 studs (on 16's), and have you noticed how big windows are nowadays? It's not like the old double hung windows, you need a 5' level (59" so it fits in a 5' opening). This level is comfortable to use because it is within your arm span and not over your height. If it were longer, it would be bouncing off headers and other openings as you walk though the job. It is the right length and has replaced my 4' Stabila as my "default" level. I grab the 59" level first and use it the most. Kudo's to that ballzy German engineer who brought this idea to the boss.

The construction on these is superb and they mean it when they say non-marring. I have always used cheaper levels, having to flip them end to end to double check measurements and finally got too frustrated and splurged. I don't regret it one bit. I purchased the 16"/48" set and have come up short a few times though, so this new longer set sure would be nice.

You simply must have the longest level you can have in an opening, take a window thats 60" x 40" (W X H) If you put a four foot level in this width window, you will not get the whole story.
I show my customers what their window or door is doing, does a lump of drywall mud/plaster make their trim/casement rock or throw off square, does a sunken or bowed crowned stud put some wow in the wall? blinds put in this window will reflect that. Plumb Level Square doesnt happen to often if you know what your window is doing, you can make the end result look good to the eye.
Sure you can get buy cheaper levels just keep in mind what your getting!

We bought this set for building a deck and we found that both sizes were very usefull in the project. They are very high quaility and sturdy - will last forever.

I have bought Stabilia levels exclusively for the last 20 yrs. I have most of the sizes from 78" down. I am a tile contractor, and I believe that the 59" was designed for working on tiled bathtub enclosures. Bath tub flanges or lips are notorious for curving up in the corners a 48" level won't give you a true read but the 59 is perfect. Thanks for that idea Stabilia! Your levels are tops! Joe

These are the best made, everything about them is perfect, great warrenty as well.

These levels are worth the money. They will give you years of true readings if you take care of them. Easy to read and hold. With the removable end caps, makes marking corners perfect.

I think this is the best levels money can buy. I like the grip built in the level to hold it against a wall. If you don't lose it, you'll use it forever. Buy them.

I am joining the ranks of those who have given these levels 5 stars. Unquestionably the best levels on the market. I only needed the 24", but I got both because it's only about $30 more for the 59". The 59" is a nice level, and because the straps continue across the center vial, it is noticeably more rigid than the 48". I'm not sure why they powder coat the top and bottom of the 59", (up to 48 are milled aluminum) but it still seems fairly flat.
These levels read true no matter what the temperature change, and that is one of the great things about them. I have gone through dozens of cheaper levels that I bought trying to save money, and then I still had to go buy the premium product. Save yourself some money and buy the best to begin with!

The price was right...steep, but right...and oh so worth it. Thankfully, my old MD levels were used only for my own projects, not for clients!
