  • Check the ends. They might be a flimsy rubber cap that will come off after virtually no use (and not be reattachable). It'll affect all your length measurements.

    That's what mine was like. Diff brand, but the one in the pic looks like it'll have the same issue.

    That said, for what I do I have no need to stand it on that end and I don't use it to measure so it hasn't bothered me.

    Just note that these are very basic levels; lightweight rectangular aluminium sections with plastic end caps, non-machined edges have a radius so are difficult to scribe a line with.

  • Its a good deal, but spirit levels are cheap, get the length you need instead of jumping on this. A very small one, a ruler length one and a huge one is a better combo. My smallest is actually for a camera mount, say a 2x2x2 cm square. And my medium one came off some cheap Chinese store but is well built and has an angle measuring device with lcd readout and its been awesome. My long one is somewhere from 1.5 to 1.8m

      There's a reason pros and tradies wouldn't use a smartphone app, they're not accurate.

        Tradies don't buy their levels from Aldi either.

      • Should see my apartment - I put in a defect as the bathroom door was bowed.

        Builder came out to check a few other issues I had, came time to check the door and he said the door isn't bowed the frame isn't straight.

        I just face palmed.

      … to call a tradie with a good level?

  • justtoreply,

    Is there any chance you could provide a link to the cheap Chinese store you bought the medium level from?

    Thanks.

  • Thanks again!
