Love this level. Strong magnets that clamp it down tight and it fits in my tool bag. Milwaukee has a superior product compared to others with its ability to hold on to metal framing while working.

Works great for my line of work

VERY ACCURATE AND THE MAGNETS WERE A GREAT PLUS

Love it. The bubble is massive.

I placed this on the ground and was shocked to find the earth was flat. Like all milwaukee tools this exceded my expectations. Its enlarged bubble makes for easy reading.

I love it

The 48in Redstick magnetic box level has a fantastic build quality. It feels very solid and you get the impression it will be very accurate as well. I used it to test numerous areas within my home as it was being built. Everything showed it was consistently level and everything was square. It is easy to read even from a distant, and the magnetic feature comes in handy in window seals with metal framing. It is a great product that I would recommend to anyone looking for a professional level.

Very well made level, it is comparable to Johnson and Fatmax. The 48 inch size is great for bigger jobs and probably more for the contractor, but the avid DIYer will find a lot of reasons to use this length. I recently put this to work installing a long run of fence and it did a great job keeping things level. I found the machined surface to be well manufactured and true. like the non magnetic version for my use but if you are installing metal doors etc, you may prefer the magnetic version Milwaukee has made a nice product.

I love this Milwaukee level. They operate as advertised and are a solid great quality tool. The level itself is very strong and clean. The bubble is very clear and easy to read. I will not have a use for the magnetic side but I did try it out. I was very surprised how strongly it held on. This level is heavy duty great buy. I am very pleased with this purchase.

This is a 4 foot long box level that has magnets built in. The magnets are used for holding the level up to steel surfaces. There are three easy to read vials and two cut outs to use as handles. The cut outs have a protective material to keep you from cutting your hand. The level is made of aluminum and has black rubber ends to protect the level in case of a fall. The level is painted red and has a durable crinkle finish - like on a Ferrari valve cover! The level is straight as an arrow! It's very strong and I didn't see any flex when supporting it on only one end. This is a lifetime tool - the best made level I have owned. I give it five stars. This is the best of the best.

The Redstick Line of levels offered by Milwaukee is definitely, the top of the line. From the metal inner core to the aluminum milled outer, this thing is built tough. The rubberized end caps are removable, if it matters. The rare earth magnets are incredibly strong, in fact I store it attached to one of my metal cabinets and can open and close the door and it doesn't move. For these old eyes the high contrast vials,of which there are two, make reading easy. The accuracy is some of the best in the industry. It has a hang hole. Once again Milwaukee has designed a tool that will a last me.

This level is really beefy. What I really like are the large "bubbles" that make viewing extremely easy. The magnets really hold well and I plan to use this to level all my appliances - for starters. The versatility the magnets add really appeals to me. I was surprised, however, that there are no measurement markings like on every other level I've seen; to me this detracts from the value of the level, after all this is NOT cheap. Also, I requested this level on 11/9/2016 and finally received it 3/7/2017! Good thing I didn't need this for a Christmas gift or anything else while I was giving up on ever receiving it.

Another fantastic Milwaukee product. I recently bought a 4 foot level, which I thought was a pretty good one. I won't mention the brand other that it"s the blue one. Now don't get me wrong the blue ones are good levels too. But when I received the Milwaukee level, there's no comparison. This is heavy duty thick nicely honed edges. The bubbles are big and easy to see. The magnet is strong. Just a great level that will out live me. Highly recommended. This is actually the review I wrote for the 24 inch level they are both fantastic no matter what size.

This Redstick level from Milwaukee is a very well made, well-constructed piece. The sturdy tough frame is made of aluminum, with a special milled surface on either side. The heavy plastic end caps protect the surface of anything you're measuring, but a clever release system lets you remove the caps if you need to get into tight corners-- very handy where walls meet. To me, the best features on these Redstick levels are the high-visibility vials themselves-- they're larger than any I've seen in other levels, and super easy to read-- a real plus when you don't have your reading glasses, or when your wearing safety goggles. So far, I've used this level on indoor mounting projects and a trim project on my three-season porch, all with perfect results. At 24", the level was easy to handle, yet long enough to ensure accuracy. It also features a strong magnetic edge for working with metal studs/ surfaces. Add in its lifetime guarantee, and I'm sold on the Redstick-- it's taken levels to a whole new, well, level!
