Yeah, there are plenty of crappy electronic studfinders that end up
causing more harm than good. There are also good ones. Zircon tends
to make good ones. Don't skimp on cost. A good studfinder pays for
itself in eliminated mistakes in no time.

A metal detector feature is good, but be sure to use some care so you
don't attempt to drive a nail though, say, a cast iron drain pipe.
