Product Description

Gecko Grip pads help hold the level against the wall -- even when you're working one-handed. | 
The adjustable Accu Mark targets line up easily against the backs of pictures or shelves that have preset marks or hang tabs. | 
Once you've established your Accu Mark targets, set the level against the wall and transfer their position with a pencil. | The Accu Mark Level -- For All Your Leveling Needs Black & Decker's 36-inch Accu Mark level is designed to perform any basic leveling job with ease. Now you can hang pictures, shelves, decorative items and much more with all the precision of a professional -- and none of the guessing and re-guessing that damages walls with repeated drilling or nailing. The BDSL10 is a lightweight, handy home device that's packed with the high-grade durability and convenience features you expect from an industry leader like Black & Decker. This model boasts advanced Gecko Grip friction pads to help keep the level steady under pressure. These pads do such a great job of preventing slippage that you can even hold the level with one hand and mark the wall with your other one. But don't worry -- these grabbing nubs won't leave a scuff, so even the lightest paint is safe. In addition to the Gecko Grips, the BDSL10 also features two adjustable Accu Mark targets that slide along the center rail. These marks help you hang pictures and shelves with built-in wall mounts or preset hang holes; just line up the marks with the mounts on the back of your pictures, then place the level against the wall and note the spots with a pencil. Using this technique, it's a cinch to hang heavy mirrors and large portraits, long shelves and big paintings. Key Technical Specs:
- Rubber end caps
- 36 inches long
- 2 adjustable Accu Mark targets
- Non-slip Gecko Grip pads

Gecko Grip August 4, 2010
Mom of 1
It works, however, it doesn't work for every item you want to hang. For example the picture, mirror, etc must be within a certain size range in order to use this tool. Other than that, it's great. Cannot use for small pictures or really big pictures and if you have a tight space you want to hang something this tool won't fit into the space. We could have lived without it in our house.
 Simple features missed -too many bells and whistles March 10, 2010
G. Zars (Cedar Falls, IA)
From reading other reviewers, I have not had any issues with the level reading accurately. In that it does an acceptable job. I do not like that there is no opening or window on the top to see the bubble. I find this to be a huge inconvenience that could have easily been modified to have a window on the top of the level.
The accumark feature works pretty well if you need 2 points. However, it only works really well if you first compare it to whatever your hanging. That is, it is not very user friendly if you just want to measure it out with since it counts in inches from center.
I have no idea how the Gecko pads are supposed to work; the level seems no more stable against the wall than any other I have used.
I give it 3 stars because, based on my experience, it gives you an accurate reading, which is most important. I think it is overpriced, though.
A Must Have Tool February 17, 2010
AL (Pasadena Texas)
This is a must have tool for your home. It works well for hanging pictures, leveling shelves, marking the distance of the studs in walls, totally adjustable to fit your needs, and it does not cost you a arm and a leg. Buy this item to do the job right the first time or you will have to listen to the wife later telling you it is not straight and you will have to re-do the job again. LOL.
So far..... January 18, 2010
Jumin Chung (Seoul, Korea)
I purchased this for myself and 2 of my co-workers and we have all decided that this a great tool. It's nice because it has the gecko grips and all the levels were accurate right out of the box. The item was just like the description mentioned it would be and like everyone else has mentioned, the grips make it extremely easy to hold the level and drill at the same time.
We haven't been able to do any serious testing yet but from what we've seen, it'll do just fine for everyday work. If you're in need of a long level, this is the one for you, it's cheap and accurate.
