Review: Buy This One Because It Works Great - Excellent device! I have a few different types of studfinders and this one works the best. It is great that it finds the stud and shines a light on the center of it for easy marking. You may read many other peoples difficulties with stud finders and they usually blame the unit. They are a tool and not infallable but this one is about as good as they come. Some walls are unreadable with any stud finder; there seem to be ghost studs in some walls, and some construction (remodels) are hard to figure out. A magnetic nail finder can find a part of a stud with a nail in it but the nail may not be centered (a problem for mounting something heavy) or may have missed the stud completely and been plastered over, and one could be looking in a studless area, such as when a window or door hole has been covered improperly. I highly recommend this stud finder, and practicing with it. Tapping the wall can be very misleading and one can poke a lot of small holes (to patch and paint later) with nails before a stud is found. This is as close to x-ray eyes as one can find for studs. It is worth the cost even for the very occasional stud finding job. Update 5-2-10: Unless you are unfortunate enough to get a defective i520 (or have a low battery) it would be difficult to not use this successfully. I have had problems with my other stud finders but this one is consistantly right on and it is very simple to use. I did not have it with me recently so I used the "tapping technique", was SURE I found a stud, and had to patch a hole; missed totally. I brought the i520 with me later and it found the stud about 6 inches from the tap spot. I would toss my other stud finders but they do help sometimes. The i520 finds the studs very easily and consistantly. I highly recommend this device and to watch the included DVD if you have any problems.
Review: Spend a few more $$$ and you get something that works! - I had a cheapie stud finder that was terribly unreliable. It never would repeatedly find the studs. So I ditched it and spent a few more dollars to get this unit. Okay, now we're talkin'... This unit works very well and even sports modes to find metal pipes and electrical wiring. I especially like the LED that comes on when it determines the center of the stud. Pop a pencil in the indentation to mark the spot, scan once more to confirm, and yup, it's the same place. This unit also indicates the edges of the studs, which is handy if you are mounting a shelf with fixed spacing for the mounts and you need to angle a screw to hit the stud. You know where you gotta be! Forget the under $30 stud finders. If you want one that really works and you can rely on the "findings", then get this one. My only gripe is the little felt "feet" on the bottom tend to get stuck on textured sheetrock walls and one of them has rolled up and come off. I stuck a new pad on (the ones you use to protect furniture) and we're back in business again.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works great. Little more expensive, but worth it.
*by T***. on July 31, 2015*

This studfinder locates the edges and center of wood or metal studs up to 1 1/2-Inches (38 mm) deep. It shows when you are at the center or edge of a stud. My old studfinder would find the stud but it was always tricky to find the exact center. Sort of hit and miss. Not with this studfinder. I have been very happy with it for working around the house. It has not let me down yet. And it is very easy to use. Select the type of scan (below), put it against the wall and hold the button. As you move the scanner, it will find the center of the stud. There are four different types of scans that it will perform: STUD SCAN mode locates the edges and center of wood or metal studs in normal walls up to 3/4 inch (19 mm) deep. DEEPSCAN mode doubles the scanning depth for walls up to 1 1/2 inches (38 mm) deep, and enables scanning for joists in some ceilings and floors. METAL SCAN mode detects non-ferrous metal, such as copper pipes, up to 1 1/2 inches (38 mm) deep, and ferrous metal, such as rebar, up to 3 inches (76 mm) deep. AC SCAN mode finds and traces live, unshielded electrical wiring up to two inches deep. I would recommend this studfinder to anyone. It is more expensive than most that I have used but it has been so much better to have around the house. And I have no problem finding the center of the stud like I did before. Update: I still have issues finding the center of studs. Sometimes I need to go over a stud a couple times to find the stud. It is still way better than any other stud finder that I have used before.
