Saw some brands like Craftsman and B&D.

Please let me know your recommendation
BTW I have a tri pod for my camera would that work for the level?

Frankly, a basic bubble level is my choice for shelves and most home
projects. It seems you have already found part of the problem with them.
If you start really using them, I believe you will find them not very
convenient to use despite how great the commercials make them look.

It is a shame that Sears, that for many years sold nothing but basic top
quality tools has decided that the TV infomercial products will make them
more money.

The laser tools can be very useful for things like suspended ceilings,
but the ones you need are expensive and you don't find them at Sears.
