I hang art for a living and wanted a level ruled in inches from the center out. There are very few made this way. This tool is top quality, my only negative coments would be that the the otherwise great rubber bumpers that stick it to the wall cause the edge to float 1/16" or more off the wall which can cause inaccuracy relative to marks on a wall; and the numbers on the various rulers printed along it's sides are too fine. A bolder font & larger typeface would make them more legible. Very happy with it though.

I believe these are the only levels in the Stabila lineup that have the bridge across the leveling vial, which is helpful for making a continuous lines and/or measuring. This level feels very light weight compared to other 4ft levels I've used which may require more delicate handling and storage over the long run.

I love this level. I'm a retired carpenter, and It's great for using around the house.

I do a lot of picture & mirror hanging. The zero mark at the center makes this an essential tool for hanging anything heavy with two anchors (such as D-rings, or keyholes).
I looked around, about the only thing I could find equivalent was some cheap plastic levels (and I have been burned by bad levels).
It's an expensive stick. I have 5, two of the long, three of the short [thought a short one was lost, bought a new one, the lost one surfaced]. If I go into a McMansion with a helper for a day of hanging; The helper can take 2 sticks, and go work on his own.
It could be better, two sides of the level have no scale at all. So, if I'm on a ladder, and the light is coming from the wrong side, things get annoying.
Still, in terms of efficiency and accuracy, I love this thing.
