While im not in a trade, i am a keen DIY'er who appreciates good tools. And let me say this is a good tool. I've used it various times from putting up mirrors to installing a garden fence and it has performed admirably at every turn. I'm not rough with my things so i can't say much regarding it's durability, but compared to my old b&q level it is soooooo much nicer to use. Just a simple thing like how fast the bubble settles in the vials makes it so useful for speedy readings. If you've ever used a cheap level you'll know what i mean, where the bubbles shift around for several seconds before settling on a reading. Well not this one, almost as soon as you offer it up to a surface the bubble sits rock solid giving you a fast clear reading.

Recently had a tool bag 'borrowed' and needed to replace a number of tools. Great excuse to have a clear out. Replaced an old Stabila with this shiny new one. This has a very desirable, modern design. Very high build quality, using high end materials. The vials are fully mirrored, large and highly visible from just about any angle. The large hand grips will fit gloved fingers and the attention to details such as the excellent end caps and quality milled finish inspires confidence. Definitely worth the money. I would easily recommend this to anyone who needed a very reliable and highly accurate level.

As a bricklayer, you need an accurate long lasting level. My last one of these lasted 5 years before I felt like it needed replacing. This is also sold at a great price, in the shop this level was over £100. The 1200mm gives extra reach and makes a greta straight edge, the handles also make the level easy to hold. If you have any doubts about buying this, don't. Go ahead and buy it and you won't regret it.

Having purchased this level a couple of times from the same seller over the past 4 years I was surprised to find the quality of this one has dropped. Rubber handles have now been replaced by cheap plastic and the level makes so much noise, everything feels loose on it, and it doesn't fill me with confidence. The bubbles are reading true but honestly I'm disappointed, more expensive and lower quality.

this is a genuine piece of kit for any bricky even my age, not far from retirement. It dropped through a gap in the boards, not unusual, and the end rubbers did what they're supposed to, 4 lifts and nothing to report. the vails are easy to see at most angles i would recommend this fine product and the price, you get what you pay for.

Heavy duty and impossible to lose. As a carpenter ive dropped this off scaffolds and no damage done. Perfect for plumbing up door linings from top to bottom. Definetely prefer this over a 6ft level any day. Stabila may be pricey but worth every penny.

Bought this to replace the last one I had of this model, most shops are willing this item for a lot more, the dual handles make it more convenient and obviously Stabila are always top quality

Quality product ,nice Set of levels didn't think the led would be very useful but have to say it's really makes the vials super easy to read. Better than the fatmax ones they are replacing

fantastic spirit level , And the size is absolutely fantastic for doing window reveals, as I am a dry lining contractor it is going to prove most useful to me in my job. Thanks Jack

Quite satisfied with the sturdy frame. Hopefully the Vial's do hold true though I was looking for one with adjustable Vial's.Delivered as specified So the experience was all good.

I used this product for work as I’m a bricklayer by trade and always use a Stabila level as they seam to be one of the most reliable levels on the market.

The best level out there I've been in the building trade for over 30years if you take your work with pride then you simply need a stabila level
