Stabila TYPE81SREM 25cm/10-inch Rare Earth Magnetic Spirit Level

Funny enough, I did not purchase this tool for its magnetic properties. I'm not a scaffolder and rarely work with ferrous metals. I just wanted an affordable, handy sized, general purpose level that I know is 100% reliable. I think Stabilia's reputation speaks for itself. For a non-precision level aside from the likes of the more pricey precision tools makers Moore and Wright, Mitutoyo, Starret etc. Stabilia is no doubt poles apart from the competition. Ok I'm not here to go on about brands! Here to talk about the tool. Now I don't know what they have been feeding the Type81SREM for brunch but that rare earth magnet has a humongous appetite for Iron Ore. First time I witnessed its awesome power was by accident and it frightened the life out of me. I recently purchased the Kilo coffee table from Habitat. It's made of oak and metal. The legs are dark solid oak ( tiny, flimsy thing ) and the table top is sheet metal ( Very poor quality might I add ), however its been painted a lively green ( doesn't look like metal ) and I keep forgetting it is made of metal. Having just recently received the tool, I was fiddling with it as you would. Done fiddling I went to place it down on the coffee table. The thing fly out of my hand and what can I say... I all most bricked my boxers, maybe I did?. I'm sure there is a tiny brown patch on the boxers I wore that day. Even now it still has that fright factor. It's an awesome magnet! As I said didn't buy it for its magnet. Can't fault it as a level. Spot on :) If you like your accessories like me, then the holster is a super swank accessory to own. It is well tailored and above all it is a very hand item for storing the level as you march from one spot to the next. It works well in conjunction with my homemade all in one handy-man holster. For the price, it's a steal, which is why I stole it from Amazon Prime, muhahahaha Ok I paid for it, but it was a steal at that price :D

Can't beat stabila for quality vest you can get for general use

Solid, great magnet. Got my monies worth out of it already.

This item is good for the money spent, very sturdy and the magnet is strong and durable, functions well and is the perfect size

I've had this for 10 months now and am very pleased with it. I'm glad I paid extra for the Rare Earth Magnet version as (although I'm not a scaffolder) it has come in handy on several jobs (even this week while levelling some large building site entrance gates). The holster is tucked snugly into an open pocket in one of my tool totes rather than on my belt so it keeps it clean, safe and easily accessible. Again worth the extra cost over the non magnetic version that does not come with a holster. All in all I can't fault it. Worth paying the extra for a quality product.

The level didn't last long at all. Has had very little use and lost a magnet. Still works with one but not the best.

Must have been good some twat stole it from me on site! Well worth the money but keep it locked up.

Can’t go wrong with this well known brand, extremely accurate and the magnets are really powerful. The only level I will use and trust from now on !

Super stabil gutes Material und gute Magneten Haftung

Never go wrong with these,well maybe .great product

Nice level, except the magnets on the one I got keep pulling out of the frame and now stick out above the machined surface so you can't get a level reading. Fail!

Excelente, lo recomiendo muy buena calidad 6 presión
