Review on πŸ”¨ Stabila 25100 10 Inch Die Cast Magnetic Level by Tyler Kota

Revainrating 4 out of 5

It's too good to get a refund

I bought this level to replace a badly worn Check Point Professional level that I have used for over 15 years. Reading reviews on Check Point about magnets falling out and seemingly cheap junk now that they're made at sea, I felt the need to look elsewhere. I use this level at work (42nd year at IBEW) from leveling panels etc to simply bending pipe. You always want to look forward to the release of a new tool, and Stabila is no exception. I quickly found that just having two magnets in the center of the spirit level wasn't enough to attach it to the line by bending short connectors with a manual bender, and I bent an inch long steel tubing. Later that morning I installed and leveled the tubes high off the ground with a manual hoist and I didn't have a strong feeling that the Stabila wouldn't fall off the tubes if jarred, hit etc. Used it for a few hours and now retired for home use, too nice to be back for a refund. So I went back to my trusty Check Point, it really is the best torpedo for my job. I could buy another Check Point and see what happens.

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • No instructions
