Amazon.com Product Description
The Stud 4 Sure is a stud finder that uses powerful rare earth magnets to pinpoint the exact location of screws or nails in a stud. The tool doesn’t require batteries and never needs calibration. By keeping the tool free of moving or electronic parts, the Stud 4 Sure is easy to use and fits easily into any tool pouch. Just place the stud finder on the wall and sweep in an “S” pattern to locate any metal fastener. The rare earth magnets are strong enough…
useless product. pay $ 5 more and get a real stud finder. This one just has a magnet and it finds only metal studs. Don’t waste money buying this.

I recently bought this magnetic stud finder and found it works as advertised. As I was walking around the local hardware store today, I realized how dumb I can be – as I was walking past the section of various magnets, it dawned on me that I could have simply bought any number of strong magnets at a fraction of the cost which would have worked as well or better. Who says advertising doesn’t work?

The amazon description stated “NEW VERSION” and showed a picture of the new model. They sent me the old one. I called them and they sent me a replacement which again was the old model. The manufactures site shows the new model, but the part numbers are the same for the new and old. That’s just confusing.

Just a magnet with plastic around it. Good for finding metal at the surface of the stud, but not the stud itself.

Have a really old Victorian house that is really funky because there are no nails in the studs holding the dry wall up. There is some sort of plaster gunk holding the drywall up. I had to cut a hole in the wall to actually find the studs, so the magnetic stud finder was of no use. Oh well, at least it was cheap which is why it doesn’t get 1 star.
