Are they a tradesman or are they one of today's so called "influencers" who quite often promote something you don't need and actually convince you that you really need it if you are gullible enough to believe them

The problem with all of these its not the things it finds thats the problem its the things it doesnt find.. In that experiment its in stud wall, I find most issues when they are chased into a wall which seems to cause more issues for these stud finders... The question you have to ask is would you trust it? Most of the time you have to use some common sense and some luck..

I bought one of amazon in the summer for doing downlights in a house. It was the really generic one sold under the name of lots of brands. Its ok, definitely useful on that job as I could get my layout for the lights and make any changes before drilling any holes.
