Thankyou for going to the trouble of setting up a test for this tool and showing how useless it is. I was about to waste £70 on one of these.

@arcadeuk

You are welcome.

You are much better off using a decent magnet to locate the studs.

@ultimatehandyman

I had a cheaper model, and it would detect random cables/pipes/studs without even moving it. I (wrongly) assumed that a more expensive model would be more reliable.

As my house has random cable/pipework all over the walls, I still have the dilema of not being able to confidently drill holes without worrying about what is behind the wall.

I have heard good things about the wall scanners but they are much more expensive. Someone must make something at a reasonable price for detecting pipes and cables!

Thanks for the comments

OMG ! I have been checking round to buy one of those and i wanted to see some reviews and i got in here to this Video,,,,Im shocked and disappointed,I used to trust Bosch but after this Video i really have to be careful,,those instruments cost quite a lot and they were made for life as in the commercials ...Thanx for the video,, it is really useful.

Yes, this tool is really disappointing and lets Bosch down. I have been a fan of Bosch tools for 20 years and the rest of the tools they make seem to be good quality but this completely lets them down. I have read a few reviews of these detectors on websites and only the people selling them seem to think they are any good, but people that have tried them can never seem to get decent results with them! Thanks for the comment ;-)

I had the same result when I tried it in my house!

Thanks for the comment

Mine was showing live wires all over the place although there was nothing at all. Useless!

Thanks for the comment.

I have to say that I was disappointed with the Bosch DMF10, it looked so good in the promotional video. I have not tried the GMS 120, but I would hope that it would be better than this model!
