Franklin Sensors 710 Professional Stud Finder with 13-Sensors for The Highest Accuracy Detects Wood & Metal Studs with Incredible Speed, Yellow

I had a stud finder that bleeps at everything no matter what you do. This one actually works. Insert two batteries, hold horizontally on the wall and move across. As you find a stud the lights come on. As you move across the stud the lights in the centre come on. That is when you know you have found the centre of the stud. These DO NOT detect electrical cables. They are simple to use and are NOT a bleeping nuisance!

I love the very graphic way this tool shows the stud locations. Easy to use. Pleased I bought this.

Made it so easy to find studs to mount my tv, a little expensive considering i had to apply to amazon.com and pay for the import charges etc, you would think they would store some in Amazon uk and other countries, but still worth the money for the ease of use in finding stud walls more accurately. Highly Reccommend Though, deffo a must have tool for your tool box.

Bought in the hope of finding studs behind plaster and lath. Didn't manage it though. Great on studded plasterboard.

Helped find the studs without a problem. Looked at many different types and the reviews on this helped me to choose this one. Well worth the investment.

Easy to use and have found to be very accurate so far.

I've been buying these all my life, recently more in hope than expectation. This one actually works. At last.

Simple to use

Good product and works well

After my wife broke her hand, I needed to put a temporary bannister rail on the wall side of the stairs between the floors of our house. I first tried my old magnetic finder but it was useless, so I ordered the ProSensor after reading reviews. It turned out to be perfect for the job and was easy and quick to use even though this job was awkward. First, the house is old and has thick lathe and plaster. Second I'd repaired the plaster and lathe some years ago so there were metal screws embedded all over the place. Third, my temporary bannister rail needed to cross floors from downstairs to upstairs where the framing is different, and the floor framing gets in the way. Fourth, there is wainscoting and molding on the lower 3 feet of the wall creating obstacles and making that part thicker. Besides this, I absolutely didn't want to drill any extra holes. The ProSensor managed the job superbly. Its readings are almost instant! I love the way it shows the entire width of the stud. Tips: 1) holding it upside down lets you get it closer to some spots. 2) Use small squares of masking tape to mark the center of the studs. Then check at various heights to avoid chance of misreads using a bubble level or plumb line to ensure vertical . This increases accuracy. 3) You can mark a series of studs and check the distance between them for places where you may be in doubt. This also allows interpolating studs in tight spaces where the sensor may not fit. 4) if you can access the other side of the wall, mark studs there too, and compare both sides by measuring with a tape from a door jamb for example. 5) I found it best to place the sensor and then press the button. Moving the sensor around with the button pressed sometimes gave ambiguous results. I recommend trying all these techniques as there are often unusual framing configurations in older houses. Summary - I'm delighted with this device! It's essential for any do-it-yourselfer. It turns an awkward job into a lot of fun.

Used it in multiple homes. Never failed me. It’s perfect.

Let me be honest with you. I'm no handyman. I don't know the slightest thing about house construction, studs, drywall or anything. But I needed to learn fast because when my 50-pound drapes fell off the wall, I was sleeping in a room with windows covered by tin foil. And then, along came the Franklin Sensors ProSensor 710 Precision Stud Finder. My life has changed forever with this purchase. I had never personally owned a stud finder, but I knew if I was going to buy one, I was going big. I had no interest taking any chances on a cheap stud finder that might work but might not. I needed a stud finder that was highly accurate, and so easy to use that even the world's worst handyman could figure out how to find a stud. This product is going to do that for you. My first ever attempt in life (yes, my whole life) to find a stud, drill into it, and hang a bracket on the wall was a tactical success. No more tin foiled windows for me. The Frankin ProSensor 710 immediately found me a stud that I could sink my dusty, unused drill into. Why let drywall get the last laugh when you can own this high quality stud finder? I have yet to see it trigger a false alarm. The LED lights give you an accurate reading of how wide your stud is, which literally makes this unit foolproof. I wouldn't trust a low quality stud finder that beeps when it feels like it. TLDR: If you want the best, buy the Franklin Sensors ProSensor 710 Precision Stud Finder.

Great product, works as specified
