CRAFTSMAN Stud Finder, 3/4-Inch Depth (CMHT77633)

Works just as it should, gave my old one away to a sibling and needed a replacement to help hang a friends tv. This one was affordable and arrived quickly. very happy with it so far.

This thing works great--when you know how to use it properly. You have to have the device against the wall before turning it on. While holding it against the wall, press and hold the button on the side (it will do one long beep and the light will stay green- DONT LET GO OF THE BUTTON), now swipe it across the wall. It will beep and glow red once you've found a stud. If you press the power button before contact with the wall, it will give false readings. It's a great bang for buck (I'm just hanging shelves nothing serious), but it's a bit frustrating to get working right away. Also it doesn't come with a 9V battery, so there's that.

It works! It even detected some pex people water lines! Easy to use just follow the directions. My cons are that it's plastic and because I don't use it often enough, I have to take the 9V battery out when I'm not using it but that's my preference. Overall it's a solid stud detector.

Forked fine to find me, seems to find studs perfectly fine. 🤣

I just purchased this handy dandy little gadget.TWICE neighbor girl came over looking for my 'stud finder' as she wanted to hang a shelf. borrowed her mine and then went online and bought her one for herself...told her she is going to NEED THIS little gadget FOREVER, saying to her,with a laugh, 'don't give it to your dad.you'll never see it again.' She loves it so much, I got big hugs from her for thinking of her. So I decided that I needed to buy another for my niece who just moved into her own apartment. Tell you what ,if you know young people who are out on their own and will often struggle as to 'how to' hang anything on a wall without it falling down (which ,in my own personal experience, looking back, would always be in the middle of the night, and it would scare the bejeezes out of me) This is small, easy to use and just about anyone who has ever hung anything on a wall, would love to have ! this is a great little gadget, saves one from having to make SEVERAL holes in the wall just to hang ONE thing! I remember my mother trying to hang things.alot of what she hung on the wall would have up to 5 extra unused holes in the wall behind whatever she hung up(laugh) This also works especially well for when you need to hang a curtain rod and want to be sure you anchor the mounting brackets to the stud and not the sheetrock....anchors work.kinda. Until they don't....then you're left with a huge hole in the wall from the anchor that pulled out due to the weight .( I learned this from experience, so allow my experience to spare you the pain of having to make repairs to your walls ,the way I used to have to) This operates on an easily found 9volt battery (not included). Will last for years!!!! It is an indispensable item for anyone who has ever wanted to hang ,or hans hung,anything of 'weight' on their wall.. It is well worth the cost effective price. it will cost you more to repair/patch your wall and replace what was broken when it fell off the wall because you didn't hit the stud. AND I really like that this little gadget lets you know when you are at the edge of a stud. VERY HELPFUL! You want to be dead on center when at all possible.especially if you're hanging a mirror..... not that I can say I don't enjoy the sound of breaking glass.....but it's rather dangerous to clean up that kind of mess. Yep. Everyone should have one of these.

I have tons of Craftsman products and love their lifetime hand tools. That said recently tried this stud finder and while it works its ultra minimalist and detection is just OK on normal drywall. You really have to do a number of passes to determine where a stud is, my old unit was a little better at detection and more obvious with a couple extra bells and whistles. For price it can work but there are much better stud finders out there, if you only use on occasion probably ok.

I have been a DYI'r my whole life, nothing I can't do. As I have gotten older and can afford the better things in life, I buy the better things, but always open to a good value bargain. So, when I had a closet rack fell down, I went to the garage to discover my old stud finder was deceased. Began my search on Amazon, and local hardware stores and reading some reviews. I was determined to get a 'good one' this time around. Found the Craftsman one at the local hardware store, and just touching it made my blood run cold.... flimsy. However, I later read a review which I thought was real (it wasn't) that rated the Craftsman as second....only to a unit that costed 5 or 6 times as much. My frugal side got the better of me. OMG....this thing finds nothing. And yes, I know how to use it. You can make the same pass and it will find two studs in an 8" pass, and then repeat it, and find no studs for 36"s. Since it was in the back of a closet, I found the first stud with my drill, and all others every 16". Once I had them marked, I tried the stud finder again. Absolutely couldn't find ANY of them. Use the $10 to light your BBQ grill, cus spending it on this stud finder will return less benefit.

Works well, simple to use and straight forward. Just press down to engage the button at the back to turn the tool on. Finds the studs quickly and fairly accurate. Small enough to toss into a work bench or tool bag
