Unmatched Accuracy and Reliability: WALBOT DIY2 is a Must-Have for iPhone Users
By Lyall on Reviewed in the United States on August 26, 2024
I recently upgraded to the WALBOT DIY2 for my iPhone, and it has been a game-changer for my home improvement projects. Compared to other stud finders I've used in the past, the WALBOT DIY2 feels far more accurate and reliable. The visual interface on my phone is intuitive, and it provides a clear, detailed view of what's behind the walls, which is incredibly reassuring when I'm drilling or installing new fixtures. The ability to see live data on my phone screen gives me confidence that I'm pinpointing studs with precision, avoiding any unnecessary holes or mistakes. The WALBOT DIY2's performance is top-notch, and it integrates seamlessly with my iPhone. I appreciate how easy it is to set up and use right out of the box. The build quality is also impressive, making it a solid and dependable tool in my DIY arsenal. If you're looking for a stud finder that combines cutting-edge technology with ease of use, the WALBOT DIY2 is definitely worth the investment!

Completely worthless - DO NOT BUY
By John K Overstreet on Reviewed in the United States on November 14, 2023
I really wanted this to work but sadly it does not. The sales hype for this product made it sound like it would detect items (studs, wires, pipes, etc.) in the wall and then display an image on the screen depicting what item(s) were detected. It also touted the ease of use and the accuracy and laid out lots of 'sales' talking-points that made it sound better than sliced bread. All of these boastful sales talking points are completely false and unfounded. The main problems for me is that for the unit to work it has to be (REQUIRED) connected to the Wi-Fi. What if the house you are working in does not have Wi-Fi or even electricity hooked up? What if the person you are doing the job for doesn't want your device connected to their wi-fi? Beside that the unit has to be calibrated almost every time it is removed from contact with the wall. Calibrating takes a minute or two and wastes a lot of time. It will only work with single-layer new-ish drywall so if the wall you are trying to detect studs in is older or if the walls are a little thicker then you are just out of luck. Conclusion: This Walabot unit is a neat idea IF they ever get one to work like the hype says but in it's current state of development it should not be considered for serious use by either professionals (like by people who do construction work) or even weekend DIYers. It doesn't work well enough to be useful just frustrating. Don't buy one of these.
