Eliminate the guesswork with this center detect Stud Finder that has a detection depth of 3/4 in. for wood and metal. While traditional stud finders locate the edge of the stud, this one locates the center for a more efficient read. The finder is constantly calibrating to save time during use. Once the stud is located, an audible alert and directional LED arrows clearly notify the user. You can easily mark the center of the stud with the center marking channel.

Title: My go to!!
Review: The DEWALT Stud Finder is a must-have tool! It’s incredibly accurate and makes finding studs quick and easy. I love how simple it is to use, even for someone with minimal DIY experience. The ergonomic design fits comfortably in my hand, and the LED indicators are clear and easy to read. It saves me so much time and hassle when mounting things like shelves or TVs. If you’re looking for a reliable stud finder, DEWALT has nailed it with this one!

Title: Worked for me!
Review: So I was very skeptical to purchase this after seeing the reviews, however it was on sale and I love DeWalt products plus I like to develop opinions based on my own experiences so I bought it to give it a try, at first I when holding it outside the package I thought to myself this is so lightweight and cheap now I see what everyone was talking about. However when I tested it several times over and over it was spot on atleast 90-95% of the time! Both with studs and live wire! Not saying the folks who couldn’t get it to work don’t know what they’re doing but for me it really did work and I was very pleased with it, even tested it against a 3 in 1 more expensive finder I have and this was quicker to detect the objects and from much further away as compared to my “better” one. For the folks who can’t get it to be accurate I would not read the instructions but watch the video so you can see how to really use it, make sure your walls aren’t too thick, make sure they are actually drywall and not plaster or any other material, make sure you lay it flat on the wall and hold the middle button until the lights minus the power light go off, make sure your moving it in one direction on the wall not changing your height or position on the wall it should be slow smooth slides in one direction also not up and down and back and forth on the wall, just one clean slow uni-directional movement. Also you have to keep your hand in the same position once it’s on the wall you can’t be moving your fingers or hands at all, this will throw off the calibration, you also need to make sure your opposite hand and arm are at your side and away from the hand with the finder if you touch the wall with your other hand or even bring it near the hand your using to locate the stud it will throw off the calibration. If you do all of these steps and it’s still not working for you maybe it isn’t the best product and I lucked out. However I must say I am fully impressed by this stud finder.

Title: "The Stud Finder"
Review: I love it. My things had a way of falling off the wall until I purchased the "Stud Finder" just yesterday I decorated my 3 year olds bedroom and this little think came in handy, the noises were funny to the kids. It saved me a lot of time , the design is nice. Fits right to the hand. As far as the readability it is pretty easy. And did I mention I got it on sale. Even better. I would definitely recommend it.

Title: Doesn’t find the studs
Review: I misplaced my old stud finder and bought this one after looking at some different ones. I thought it was the right price point for a simple device, which is all I needed. But then it failed, repeatedly, to identify studs I knew were there—it found them one time, but not a second time, when I was testing out its accuracy and reliability. It told me there was a stud where there really wasn’t one, too. I marked it, was hanging a holder for my brooms, and thankfully I always use a small test drill bit first, to make sure the stud is where the device tells me. It wasn’t. I had to use a drywall anchor instead, which wasn’t my first choice; I was trying to place the hanger where it would have at least two studs, but thanks to this thing, there was only one in the middle instead of two at the ends like it told me.If it’s going to be that inaccurate and useless, I may as well thump the wall with my fist like I did after losing my Stanley one. I don’t think any studfinders in my price range are going to be all that, but I was really disappointed that a DeWalt branded one was so lame. I love my DeWalt tools—batteries and tools are still doing great after >10 years—so I guess I expected more than I should have here. It was returned, and my old Stanley (which owns DeWalt now) was found and put back into service—just as inaccurately! (Sigh.) I’m back to thumping on the wall, or else unscrewing the outlet cover to figure out what side is attached to a stud.

Title: Below Average.
Review: Does not give accurate reading all the time, very confusing. You are better off using a magnate.

Title: Crap batteries included!
Review: Thought unit was defective, but checked battery orientation twice. When I tried seating them a third time, the negative end of one battery came off! Replaced with Amazon Basic batteries which fit better and brought the sensor to life. Good, simple sensor.

Title: Works Good
Review: Probably not the most accurate but was good enough that i hit the studs the first time when mounting a tv. Good buy for the price.

Review: Dewalt is noted for high quality product , this stud finder is no exception, good price, easy to use , accuracy is not 100% and even in the manual says only a reference , visual checked is still needed it perform 85% job be very careful finding live wire or water pipe as it could cost a very expensive repair, note this is only my opinion/ review

Review: I tried two other stud finders on an insulated stud wall and neither worked correctly. This one found the studs easily and accurately.
