Customers say
Customers find the metal detector to be a handy tool that’s easy to use and good at detecting what’s behind walls. However, the functionality and accuracy receive mixed reviews – while some say it works to a degree, others report hit-and-miss results and false positives. The value for money and electrical wire detection aspects also get mixed feedback, with some considering it good value while others say it’s a waste of money, and while some appreciate its ability to detect wires in internal walls, others find it consistently gives false positives.

Saved me a lot of stress
Did a lot of search to find the best one and this is brilliant value for money. Has multiple settings and finds all different types of beams and electrical wires behind the wall. Has saved me many a times from drilling into electrics!!Colour is nice and comes in a great litlle protective pouch.

Keeps going off near me, but does the job when put to the wall.
I know it’s a stud finder, but it keeps buzzing around me. Not sure what it’s trying to say, but when you put it to work in trying to inspect the walls and scan about, it’s quick and easy to use, very lightweight but still fairly durable for any knocks or drops it can encounter. Does exactly what it needs to do, who can ask for more?

Clever device
Very clever device but the battery came with less than half charge in it and itâs not rechargeable

Doesnât work and dangerous
I needed to drill into an area of wall not far from a light switch (though outside where wires should be running per building regs). Got this device as an extra layer of safety. It initially believed most of the wall was one big AC wire. In the area where I was drilling I got different results each time I calibrated, some flagging a live wire, others with no signal. A complete waste of money and dangerous if you trust the results. Will be returning for a refund.

Reliable little stud finder
I’m always putting up shelves, mounting monitors and lining up picture rails, so a dependable stud finder has been overdue. The little Mecurate five in one has stepped up nicely. A single button lets me scroll through 19 mm timber stud, 38 mm deep stud, 60 mm metal and 50 mm live wire settings, each shown on a bright back-lit screen. When it locates something solid it emits a cheerful beep, loud enough to cut through a whirring drill.On ordinary plasterboard it’s bang on. The live wire alert has already spared the consumer unit an unexpected firework show, and that alone justifies the price in my book. Calibration takes only a moment, but you must reset it each time you lift the sensor off the wall, which slows bigger jobs when your arms are starting to ache.Accuracy tails off on double board and skim, so I still prod a bradawl in before committing a screw. Even so, the casing feels sturdy rather than toy-like and the neat pouch stops it wandering to the bottom of the toolbox.All told it’s a useful bit of safety kit. There is a modest learning curve, yet a couple of practice passes on scrap board will see you right.
