This level is wonderful. Not only is this level lighter than the Klein levels that it looks almost identical too, (and is way cheaper), but the magnet and durability of this level are only a notch below the Klein torpedo level that it looks like. Now, this isn't near as strong durability wise nor are the magnets quote that "sticky," but as I said, they come dang close. I dropped my level from the top of a sky lift onto concrete flooring the first day and all it had was a little dent on one of the top (non magnet side) edges. For the price and what these levels go through on the job, for my money this Swanson level is the better buy. Why? Because not only is it pretty darn close to the Klein torpedo level, but it's economical pricing means if it does get lost or somehow destroyed, it's no big deal to replace it. If you absolutely need perfection in your torpedo level; one that is going to stick like super glue and withstand dozens and dozens of drops onto concrete, (and you know you wont lose it), buy the Klein. However, if you just need a very strong magnet (not super glue levels like the Klein but still very good), and are confident you might only drop the level 10-20 times on hard concrete, and realize you are prone to/might lose it within 1 or 2 years, the Swanson is perfect for you. The Swanson is still an expertly crafted and is quite a bit cheaper than the top/prefered (and expensive) level out there so buy it and don't worry about caring for it. This nice piece of equipment will do just as good a job and doesn't come with all the worry that you might develop over a more expensive investment.

This level is pretty good for the price. I recently had to moonlight as a pipe fitter at the boat yard where I work. I needed a short magnetic level to fit between welds and fittings. I didn’t want to invest too much in special tools since it was a short term assignment. This level fit the bill. Here’s my view of the good and less good: It’s sturdy and fairly short with strong magnets. The bubble levels are accurate (compared with several other more expensive levels) and you get 4 angles (0, 30, 45 & 90). The bubbles fit fairly well between the lines, with just a tiny gap to either side so level could be judged as could close enough. It is NOT a machinists level however. It has the cool screw clamp on the end which allows you to better judge bend and fitting angles, and it’s orange so fairly easy to see. One end is rounded and I bet there’s a good reason for it, but I liked that it went into my pocket easily and didn’t get damaged when it fell. It worked well for me and still does. The less good bits are smaller things: The windows for the bubble levels are smaller than on others, so moderate low light conditions required my headlamp to see clearly. The viewing holes in the top of the level were also on the small side, so off angle viewing could be difficult. As mentioned above, the bubbles were not quite big enough to completely fit exactly between the lines, meaning the bubble could still be between the lines without it being perfectly level (but it was really close). All very small complaints. The only thing I have real reservations about is the thumb screw: the knurled thumb screw for the clamp end is pretty loose. I was constantly making sure it was tight so as not to fall out and get lost. It never did and it would have to unscrew a pretty long way to fall out, but I found myself thinking about it every time I reached for the level. For the price I’m not disappointed. If I was using day in and day out, I would find something else, with better visibility and a tighter screw.

The Lil' Savage looks like a pretty useful item for the carpenter or serious DIYer. The top has a v-groove to make it easy to hold against a pipe (or an outside corner), there are four vials (30, 45, 90, 0 degrees), four magnets for use with metal studs, and even some kind of clamp for taking readings off bent pipes. It's well-built out of solid billet. The magnets have held it firm on everything I stuck it to. It even held in place on my truck going down the highway at 50mph! I like the fact that it can hold itself on round metal pipe and will also attach itself to the end of a pipe for leveling. While this may not be the cheapest torpedo level out there, it sure is made to last a lifetime. When I'm long gone my children will still get good use out of this level.

Works great, compact, accurate. Strong magnets are very secure in place - this is the part that brings joy
