Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Great aid in finding studs, headers and any wood to which drywall is attached with steel/iron-based fasteners, typically screws. Centering display feature, and that it can sense electrical wiring (little lighting bolt) works fine and the red projected...  Read More



Cons

This thing constantly beeps in error. Indicator goes off or a normal scan and marks a stud. Would not power on. This device is so clueless.

The tool is clumsy, hard to use and inaccurate. Location of a stud appears to work until you come to actually drill to locate and find the result (after checking multiple times) is inaccurate.

Manufacturers of this product do not care even remotely about offering a quality product. Totally waste of $26 bucks. Zercon probably imports this garbage for fifty cents each.

    I tried it several times around the same area on different days to determine its accuracy


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    It was the same result more or less each time


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    As most homeowners are aware electrical outlets are attached to studs


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Therefore the wires leading to the outlet are attached to the same stud


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I prefer to use studs without the wires running along the side of the stud


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    However that isnt always an option


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Bad news if the frame work behind the drywall is not designed well this stud finder won’t work with 100 accuracy


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    If you dont use this before trying to set a screw in a hollow wall and you hit a stud your wall anchor will likely destroy the sheetrock
