        The light marked dud flashed instead of the one marked stud so it is not faulty

    4.2 is hardly good. But could be worse.

    If you want a proper and reliable one, go Franklin. Obviously different price point. Nothing beats a good finder that reduces likelihood of expensive mistakes.

        Statistically it’s not a good product. 8% of reviews are one star. That’s nearly 10%. That is not a good stat considering the cost of the mistake

      Expensive mistake? Nah, use the proven tradie method: rapid fire nails until one sticks then smear some no more gaps over the dud nails with your empty maccas chip box. Stud found, and you've also reinforced your load bearing gyprock a bit while you're at it.

        With all those nails in the wall, good luck trying to get your gyprock through airport security next time you want to take it on an overseas holiday.

      according to reviews 9V one

      • rwps on 19/07/2024 - 11:31

        and 9v is enough of a reason not to get one unless you use it every week. no rechargaeable battery and you end up buying a new battery almost every time you use it if you are a home DIY user

      Cabinet maker gets to the work site, pulls out a mirror from his tool belt and puts it up against the wall and starts beeping at himself.

      Well, that's all well and good for all you non-vampire people.

    A simple magnetic finder is much better, IMO. Reliable, no batteries, hard to break.

    • MrPants on 18/07/2024 - 20:58

      If your magnet finds wood studs in your house, then you might have some issues.

        It finds the nails in the studs.

          Unless your builder was scarily regular. Helping a friend with their ceiling last week and the nails were in a grid pattern. The spacing of the nails along the joists was the same as the spacing between the joists, within about 5mm. Not sure if he was quick, but he was certainly methodical.

  • mickrb30 on 18/07/2024 - 20:53

    Tarts have no problems honing in and finding my stud super quick, no guesswork,

      Do you recommend fruit, chocolate, custard or savory tarts best?

      Also what cleaner do you recommend to remove the wall stains?

    Keeps following me
    Reviewed in the United States on 3 July 2024
    This stud finder works almost too well as it keeps following me around the house no matter where I go. Finally had to remove the battery so I could get some sleep.

  • dufflover on 19/07/2024 - 00:25

    Bought a Zircon one many years back in the Master's days which also has AC detection alert. Can't say I'd ever go back to just having a "normal" detector that doesn't have that feature.

    Never bought any stud finder. Done multiple renovations, a reliable stud finder I've ever used is my knuckles and ears. Super easy to distinguish hollow drywall sound from the sound of a solid stud wall. Confirm by drilling a smallest pilot hole. Never missed. Always a delight to see timber powder on the drill bit.

    Any comments about the stud finder performance itself? Hopeless flops & their dry stud finder joke…
