Great nail finder, easy to use for hanging important furniture

When I paid someone to install my TV, I had to pay a total of $100 for basically just good use of the nail finder and follow the installation instructions. I figured I might have to do this again in the future, especially if I want to hang wall shelves or picture frames without ruining the wall, so I bought these. They work pretty well, I checked them where I remembered the studs were when the guy installed my TV mount and he found the studs too. Has different settings for different wall thicknesses, only had to use the first one (0.5β€³) as I have thin drywall. The instruction manual is very informative and easy to use. Just hold it against the wall, select the wall thickness with the middle button, calibrate it with the button on the left side of the tool, then move the tool around to find the studs. I guess it doesn't work on rough/fancy walls. I look forward to using this tool for my next post.

Pros
  • Few competitors
