Black & Decker BDSL10 36 Inch Gecko Grip Level with Accu Mark

Customer Reviews

Gecko grip

2008-08-29
This level worked great for hanging most of my large frames. The only problem I found was for smaller frames (<16"). The Accu marks are not able to move close enough. Otherwise, I would recommend it.

Solid Consumer Product

The level has a nice solid feel, and the rulers are incredibly helpful for spacing hangers (either for one hanging that needs multiple hangers or trying to hang several items in a row). It feels relatively sturdy, especially for work around the house.

The only thing I would like to change about the product is that it does not come with either a holder or a built-in tool for marking where to drill - the black & decker stud finder that I have used comes with a small plastic tool that punches a small hole in the drywall which would have been perfect.

I use the level because I am an avid DIY person. Because it has other features it comes in handy when you are working alone. I am very pleased with the product and happy with the service provided my Amazon.

Thanks

Terrible Level.

2008-06-12
I put it on a flat surface and the level reads a specific mark. Then I turn it on the other side (left to right) and the reading is on other different level. (Should read the same).

Finally, I can hang items with two nails!

2008-06-11
I have the hardest time hanging things with two nails and still getting it level. I can measure and mark until I'm blue in the face and still hang it crooked. But with this level, I just line up the sliders to the back of my picture, put the level on the wall, mark the holes, drill and DONE. I have used it dozens of times since getting it and every thing is LEVEL. Finally.

After reading other reviews, one thing: it is not supposed to stick to the walls. The gecko pads keep it steady, and won't scuff up the wall while you hold it in place and mark your spots.

My ONLY complaint/design suggestion... I wish the sliders were removable, then I could put them both on one side and hang smaller pictures. That's why it gets 4 stars, you are limited on the size of thing you can hang.

Excellent and useful level

2008-05-05
This product is excellent for hanging things at home. I got tired of marking up all of my walls when my other levels slipped. This one sticks to the walls, without leaving marks, while having to apply only some pressure. The "accu mark" targets look like they may come in handy, but aren't necessary since you can just add masking tape on the top of any level and mark your holes on the masking tape.

Poor level that is not level

2008-05-03
This level, for one, arrived damaged. For two, it was not level. I placed it on a surface and it showed it was not level. Fine. I then turned the level around and it showed that it was not level in the other direction. While the "Accu Marks" are a good idea, it needs to be paired with a better quality level. Needless to say, it was packed up and shipped back to Amazon.
