BLACK+DECKER Laser Level, Self-Leveling, 360 Degree Wall Attachment, AA Batteries Included (BDL220S)

Several reviews stated that the pin stuck out and couldn't be removed. They must have been earlier units. The one I got has a magnet that holds the base on. You can use it without the base or with the base and the pin out or flip the base over and the pin will stay in. Laser is bright enough in no light and low light. With the pin striaght out it pins into the wood or drywall for simple hands free operation. Pin hole is small enough; see picture. The laser shoots far. Depending on light conditions. In the pics, you can see it shoots the full lenght of this 30' wall and can be seen on abutting wall. I used to have a little one like this years ago and paid a boat load for it. The nice thing about that one is it had two smaller pics for attaching it to the wall; but it didn't rotate like this one. After removing it you couldn't even see the two pin pricks. Anyway I can't find that one so I bought this one. For the price easy decission.

I had one of these levels for many years until the nail broke and was useless. I bought this one as a replacement and it's identical as the prior. Decent craftsmanship for the brand. The level is spot on as expected. It's a basic tool that does its job well.

I am by no means handy. I needed to hang a few pictures in my home and was able to use this to make sure everything was level. The light is okay, not as bright as I would like it to be but it is accurate it did like how it had a little pin that would can put into the wall to ensure it stayed in place. Very easy to use, especially by yourself

Update: Added photos showing how I used this laser level to hang a frame in my bedroom. For my original thoughts and setup from the living room, see the review below.As a novice when it comes to picture hanging, I didn’t want my first laser level purchase to be super high end - I wanted to get one that was decently priced, by a reputable brand, and one that had a slimmer profile to for easy storage.Needless to say, I’m really happy I purchased this leveler. It pushes nicely into the wall, creating a very small hole pin that is easy to fill when completed. I must have drilled this leveler into my walls at least 5-10 times - as you can see with my pics, everything came out looking great, especially since my main wall with the three art panels all use D-rings (4 nails per panel - meaning that it is critical to ensure your level and aligned all the way through to achieve the optimal hanging look).— Curated by Jaded John | #OrderlyCleanDesign

I’m new to this type of level and honestly, struggled a bit with figuring it out. Some type of instructions or explanation of its features would have been great.

I love this leveler in hanging pictures. This is my second one since my son took off with the first one. And it’s just as good as my old one. It’s accurate. It’s dependable, and the first one I have for years so I expect this one to last just as long. Also if you tend to drop things at times. This leveler holds up. It takes a beating from me and keeps going. And it’s easy to see.

I bought this laser level to align bricks to edge my rocks in my front yard. It works well. Comes with batteries. Easy to use and see the laser. It has a magnet for metal surfaces, or a wheel and pin for use on walls. It even has two liquid levels in the top. I really liked it and it helped me create a straight line of bricks, straighter than I did just eyeing it or using a string.

I got this laser level because I had to hang about 3 dozen paintings and pictures in our repainted living room. My only real complaint with this particular device is the mechanism that allows it to be affixed to the wall and that is a nail mount that is housed in the swivel base. Unfortunately, this will produce a hole in your wall that will need to be repaired at some point. The laser is accurate, bright enough in most cases and extends in a fine red line for a good distance. You can solve the nail pricks with a "command strip" attached to the base of the devise. Either way, for the price, this is a good value and will not disappoint!
