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

awesome little thing for DYI. would be great if it had integrated battery to charge with USB-C. But it get the job done, accurate, precise and useful

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.

Works as expected, minimalistic and easy to use

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.

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.

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

Requiere baterías pero excelente producto.

Works pretty well! Beeps when you activate it, so hold down the power for a second before actually going and looking for your studs. It made installing my TV wall mount a breeze!

Produto veio muito rápido, fiquei impressionado com tanta eficiência, produto de ótima qualidade, produto de excelente construção, ė bem resistente, material de primeira, ótimo custo beneficio, podem comprar sem medo, recomendo, parabéns ao vendedor, compraria novamente.

works

Used this stud finder to mount my TV, and it worked flawlessly. Found the studs accurately and made the job quick and stress free. Easy to use and reliable definitely worth it if you’re doing any wall installs or home projects.
