This isn't the same quality of Sears of yesteryear that would be rebranded levels from a US measuring tools company. I can tell just looking at the picture this one looks super-cheap and outsourced, and paper-thin metal. That thing is going to get all twisted up and mangled real quick. Heck, running a pencil down a straight and true 2x4 is probably going to be more accurate than this thing. If you do get one, I'd recommend getting one at a local store that you can eyeball to see that it is straight. I wouldn't trust UPS or FedEx shipping this thing, it will arrive like a long piece of twisted metal.

I have an empire blue box level that's 12" and I swear that thing will never get destroyed. I've dropped it off rooftops and it just shrugs.
It works--but for most things I grab my trusty 12" box level.

thanks. well i thought i had a 'good level', it's an Empire i beam level guarenteed accuracy of .0005". hmmmm
fairly rigid and i have used it for years no problem, so now i have a project today of learning about 'box level vs i beam level'. may have to start with bing AI chat and see what the brains think of all of this...
A box level and an I beam level are two types of spirit levels that are used to determine whether a surface is level or plumb. They have some differences in their construction, durability and use. Here is a summary of the main differences:
Construction: An I beam level has a cross-section of a capital "I", with two horizontal flanges and a vertical web that holds the spirit levels. A box level has a cross-section of a box, with two opposite hollow sides that are covered with end caps. A box level may also have handles or grips in the middle to make it easier to hold12.
Durability: A box level is generally more durable than an I beam level, as it has more material and a solid construction that makes it resistant to bending, twisting, cracking or breaking. An I beam level is lighter and cheaper, but more prone to damage if not handled properly12.
Use: Both levels can be used for general purposes, such as checking the level or plumb of an object. They can also come in different sizes and with magnetic options to attach them to metal surfaces. However, an I beam level may be preferred by drywallers or homeowners who need a lightweight and easy-to-use option, while a box level may be preferred by professionals who need a sturdy and long-lasting option23.
I hope this helps you understand the difference between a box level and an I beam level. If you want to learn more, you can check out these links:
well there you go, better off with a box level, so now to find a 'deal' on box levels. groan.

in reality, i tend to take care of my tools and not throw them off of roofs hitting concrete below. read the tool reviews and that seems to be the standard for 'good tools'.
kinda surprises me that Craftsman would make a cheap tool, groan.
