Review on Johnson Level Tool 40 6910 Builder Foots by Jeff Addison

Revainrating 3 out of 5

piss off! - Levels

Very disappointed with the build quality. My father bought the exact same instrument 20 years ago. It's the same brand with the same features, but everything is made even tougher. It still works great but I don't expect it to last 20 years if used in the same way. Just shows how quality suffers under China! It used to have 4 leveling screws and two spirit levels. It's much harder and takes longer to get a transit level with 3 bolts and one level! The tripod is easier to use with cam locks than the old one with wing nuts, but the quality doesn't live up to the brand. It just looks and feels like a toy. I will only be using it to build a fence and level a concrete slab so I'll keep it to myself for now, but I wouldn't buy this product if I expect to be doing large projects consistently.
