stud finder recomendation

Can anyone recommend a stud finder (brand, etc) that actually works and isn't super expensive? I need to buy a new one. I used to have a Zircon but it was an unreliable piece of junk. Thanks.

My husband, carpenter swears by rare earth magnets.

They are inexpensive and work like a charm. It's all I've ever seen him use. --216.186.xxx.xx

Actually Home Depot sells a rare earth magnet stud finder for $7.99 with tons of five star reviews.

But just using a rare earth magnet itself works the same way. --216.186.xxx.xx

ProSensor 710 Franklin = 50.00

CH Hanson 03040 Magnetic Stud Finder = 7.00

Best I have found over the years and have tried many.

both work very good. Still best to carry one of each.

Need to find a stud? Well learn where not to look for them.......if a towel rack is mounted in your bathroom in a rental - rest assured, there will not be any studs near where it is screwed to the wall --72.23.xxx.xx
