Was in B&Screw the other day where the worktops are on the racks and seen a box in the middle of the isle with Stabila spirit levels in.
There is a pack of 3. You get a medium size one, a small one and a pocket one for £19.99
I think its a decent deal, not sure.
This was in a County Durham store. Would think it's in all stores.
I tried Googling to find a pic but couldn't find the right set.

I emailed them, it was either a mis-price (stores don’t have to honour an advertised price) or op was mistaken.
There is a Stabila level at £19.99, this is a single unit price however.

Oh that sucks, but the ones i seen were wrapped together in packs of 3. They must have put the wrong price on it.

I seen these today, it is indeed 3 levels for 20 notes and they do say Stabila on them, problem is, they don't look like any Stabila levels I have ever seen and they feel very poor quality, I skipped all my Forge Steel levels and bought Stabila set not long ago and they are worlds apart.
I can't see why they would put there name on them, it would be like Estwing branding some cheap ass composite hammer

I was in Toolstation the other day and asked to have a look at the level set that are pushing in the new catalogue..

If you don't want to spend £90+ on a set, then these are a good alternative, they appearded well made, I would avoid the Forge Steel ones Screwfix have on offer, every single one I had was out.

B&Poo have there own Spirit Levels out, 4 levels (1.8m,1.2m,1m, 22.5cm and a torpedo + bag) for £35. But they probably won't last very long.

Well, I bought the Drop Forge ones from Screwfix a couple of years ago & they've been great. I use the 600mm one daily - baths, radiators etc.

As in yellow? The Chinese are dab hands at doing knock-off "copies" of Stabilas - unfortunately they aren't anywhere near as accurate

If Stabila are allowing their name to be stuck on poor quality sh1te then the world as we know it is about to end........

I had a set of Forge Steel ones a few years back for a couple of years after someone "borrowed" my Stabilas. It took two return trips to B&Q to get ones with consistently sized bubbles (essential for gauging the amount of out of plumb on a door casing, etc) and without any other faults. In the end they got so hacked off with me that they let me rifle through the three sets in stock to make up one set of four which was acceptable. Wonder who got my rejects?

Sorry it's the Forge Steel ones I bought. Fine for a Plumber in my view.
