CRAFTSMAN Stud Finder, 3/4-Inch Depth (CMHT77633)

Amazing & works perfectly! This is very easy to use and very accurately finds where the stud is at. I love how small and compact it is along with the accuracy being on point! My husband and I are happy with our purchase!

Works pretty well, for the price. Is a little inaccurate at times.

It works! It even detected some pex people water lines! Easy to use just follow the directions. My cons are that it's plastic and because I don't use it often enough, I have to take the 9V battery out when I'm not using it but that's my preference. Overall it's a solid stud detector.

Great purchase!! I notice a lot of videos of people saying it was defective. I too thought that but realized I was using it wrong... 😅... first you have to place the item flush to the walk, then press and hold the power button. It will light up and beep then stop, when it stops beeping and the red light goes off, that's when you start running it along the wall while never releasing the button until you are finished.I suggest starting at the very corner of your wall not in the middle for if you do that and you just so happen to be on a beam it won't work. It also won't work if you just press and release the button, as well as if you press and hold the button while not on the wall then trying to place it on the wall.I hope this is helpful to everyone.

This item works okay, but I wish I would have spent a little bit more for a better one with visuals.

This Craftsman worked great for hanging my guitars on the wall with wall hooks. I'd definitely buy it again. Plus, it was inexpensive. Buy it.

I have been a DYI'r my whole life, nothing I can't do. As I have gotten older and can afford the better things in life, I buy the better things, but always open to a good value bargain. So, when I had a closet rack fell down, I went to the garage to discover my old stud finder was deceased. Began my search on Amazon, and local hardware stores and reading some reviews. I was determined to get a 'good one' this time around. Found the Craftsman one at the local hardware store, and just touching it made my blood run cold.... flimsy. However, I later read a review which I thought was real (it wasn't) that rated the Craftsman as second....only to a unit that costed 5 or 6 times as much. My frugal side got the better of me. OMG....this thing finds nothing. And yes, I know how to use it. You can make the same pass and it will find two studs in an 8" pass, and then repeat it, and find no studs for 36"s. Since it was in the back of a closet, I found the first stud with my drill, and all others every 16". Once I had them marked, I tried the stud finder again. Absolutely couldn't find ANY of them. Use the $10 to light your BBQ grill, cus spending it on this stud finder will return less benefit.

I just purchased this handy dandy little gadget.TWICE neighbor girl came over looking for my 'stud finder' as she wanted to hang a shelf. borrowed her mine and then went online and bought her one for herself...told her she is going to NEED THIS little gadget FOREVER, saying to her,with a laugh, 'don't give it to your dad.you'll never see it again.' She loves it so much, I got big hugs from her for thinking of her. So I decided that I needed to buy another for my niece who just moved into her own apartment. Tell you what ,if you know young people who are out on their own and will often struggle as to 'how to' hang anything on a wall without it falling down (which ,in my own personal experience, looking back, would always be in the middle of the night, and it would scare the bejeezes out of me) This is small, easy to use and just about anyone who has ever hung anything on a wall, would love to have ! this is a great little gadget, saves one from having to make SEVERAL holes in the wall just to hang ONE thing! I remember my mother trying to hang things.alot of what she hung on the wall would have up to 5 extra unused holes in the wall behind whatever she hung up(laugh) This also works especially well for when you need to hang a curtain rod and want to be sure you anchor the mounting brackets to the stud and not the sheetrock....anchors work.kinda. Until they don't....then you're left with a huge hole in the wall from the anchor that pulled out due to the weight .( I learned this from experience, so allow my experience to spare you the pain of having to make repairs to your walls ,the way I used to have to) This operates on an easily found 9volt battery (not included). Will last for years!!!! It is an indispensable item for anyone who has ever wanted to hang ,or hans hung,anything of 'weight' on their wall.. It is well worth the cost effective price. it will cost you more to repair/patch your wall and replace what was broken when it fell off the wall because you didn't hit the stud. AND I really like that this little gadget lets you know when you are at the edge of a stud. VERY HELPFUL! You want to be dead on center when at all possible.especially if you're hanging a mirror..... not that I can say I don't enjoy the sound of breaking glass.....but it's rather dangerous to clean up that kind of mess. Yep. Everyone should have one of these.
