Pros and cons

According to our wall scanner expert

You can detect ferrous metals, non-ferrous metals, and electrical conduits.
You don't have an option to detect wooden constructions.

Description

Take a look in your wall with the Bosch Truvo. This pipe locator detects current-transporting conduits as well as ferrous materials, such as steel, and non-ferrous materials, such as copper. Depending on the material you're locating, you can detect it to a depth of 5 to 7 centimeters. If the pipe locator detects an object, it gives you an acoustic warning signal. That's not a good place to drill. If you're more of a visual person, the LED shows you where it's safe to drill. In addition, the Truvo has one-button controls, auto-calibration, and soft grip, so you can easily and comfortably inspect your walls.

Strikes too often

Easy in use
Often beeps incorrectly

Unfortunately, this pipe finder does not meet our expectations. He regularly reports incorrectly.

Bad, false alerts

Ease of use
false report

My experience with that device is bad. He often gives false reports. For example, you hold him in one place and he starts beeping like crazy. Then you remove it and then you check that same spot and then it is green? I was sure that in certain places there was nothing where he indicated that something was going on. I drilled anyway and nothing really happened.

Well .. The only thing the device has to do is indicate whether you can drill safely. If that doesn't work, the device is worth nothing to my eyes.

Review is 8,0 out of 10.

But of limited use.

Works easily
Goes off too often, inaccurately

I live in a terraced house built in 2012. For the walls inside our house, the pipe finder seems to work quite well. However, the device does not work on our walls to the neighbors or outside. There it indicates that it is not possible to drill all over the wall. The same goes for the ceiling. I called customer service about this and the suspicion is that this is due to reinforced concrete. Unfortunately, this means that it is practical but of little use to us.
