Answer This Question

I’m looking for a narrow level that will fit in a crevice, preferably under 1” width. The dimensions on the site don’t make sense to me, saying the width is over 13”. Can someone confirm the dimensions of this level? Thanks

Is it just me, or do these levels look the exact same size in the picture?

Answer This Question

The product information clarifies that this is a set containing two levels: a 24-inch I-beam level and a 12-inch compact box level. So, they are not the same size. The picture may make them appear similar due to perspective or the way they are positioned.

Is this a two level set? Picture shows two different levels and the description isn't clear which or both are included in the price. Thanks

              All bubble levels should have the bubble centered in the vial. This level has a feature that helps determine how far out of level the object you are checking. The markings allow you to adjust the object to level be suggesting how far out of level it is. The level is only one foot, so if you are working with an object that is several feet long, the actual adjustment will be greater than what is listed on the vial. This is my favorite level when working with small objects such as drawers and drawer slides, as well as door adjustment with European hinges.

              Beam level is extremely accurate! Very light in weight and easily readable. Purchased recently and have used on several construction projects. Pleasure to use!! Exceeded my expectations. I would give it 5 out of 5 stars. The level is very easy to read, even without using my glasses. I would highly recommend this essential tool to others. Price was very reasonable compared to other products/brands.

              I tried to borrow a level from a neighbor for a project, leveling a bronze bowl (birdbath) atop three stones, leaving an under space for lizards. No luck. So I bought this level. Perfect size, surely I’ll use it again.

              Broke after two days. The 12 inch level fell out of my tool belt from a total of 4 feet above the driveway and this poorly made tool shattered into 3 parts.

                Great level
                I've had this level for over 2 years and it's usually the first one I grab when I'm choosing between the three that I have. It's very accurate at all angles. It is lightweight and the magnet is a plus since it's not too strong. There isn't anything that I dislike on it so far and it does meet my expectations. Please hit the thumbs up if this was helpful.

                  This 24" level has an all aluminum frame with impact-resistant end caps for durability when working in any environment or job conditions. This has 3 bubble vials for working in any position and the center bubble vial has a top-read window cut through the aluminum frame for times when you are above it instead of in front of it. One great thing about this Empire level is that it is made in the good old USA!!!

                  This 24" Empire aluminum level is lightweight, yet the aluminum is thick and strong. The bubble levels are not adjustable but I found them to be very accurate when comparing readings. I especially like the hand hole near the middle of the level. This 24" level only includes level and plumb bubbles; no 45 degree bubble level is included. The level does not include a magnetic strip either.
