Review on Walabot DIY Plus - Advanced Wall Scanner and Stud Finder for Android Smartphones (Not Compatible with iOS and tablets) - Model DY2PBCGL01 by Pushkraj Love

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Too complicated and too expensive.

Looks cool in the demo video but if you really want to use it. such a pain! Every time you want to use it. You have to connect it to the phone, stick it back to the phone with this gel puck that doesn't want to stick to Walabot but sticks to the phone like crazy. As a result, the device rotates and slides in relation to the phone as you try to scan, requiring you to realign and squeeze the pair. THEN you need to calibrate it EVERY time you set it up for use, including pressing buttons and hovering over a piece of wall for a while. He may have an advantage over other nail finders as he claims to work on more walls/structures. types. but I read about that in other reviews. not as much. For so much money and such effort. Just buy a basic nail finder to pull out of your pocket and save yourself the hassle of setting up, calibrating, and trying to pin down a phone and device combo that doesn't want to stick together when scanning walls. Also, the "new and improved" Teflon skids on the back have sharp edges that bump against the texture and it feels like they could chip paint on texture edges or chip off some textures if you're not careful. on the back and slides easily over everything. This item is being returned today for a refund.

Pros
  • Permanent test results
Cons
  • I vaguely remember
