Excellent level from Milwaukee. This 59″ magnetic “REDSTICK” level is very robust and feels very strong. It has a great weight to it, so I am confident that it will last during my various projects. The 59″ length is perfect for those bigger projects such as cabinets, tables, doors, decks, etc. The fact that it is magnetic is a surprisngly useful feature, not only for projects involving metal, but for storage! I currently have my Redstick levels stuck on the side of my large metal tool cabinet, that way I’m not wasting any space!The bubbles are very easy to read from dim to very bright light. The handles are easy to grip and the sides that are flat against your surfaces have a texture to it to provide a nice grip and prevent slipping. Additionally, the top black end caps can be removed if you need to fit it into an even tighter space. Pretty neat and I highly recommend!

This is easily the highest quality level that I have ever used. Milwaukee states that the level is accurate to within 0.0005″ (which equates to 0.029deg over the length). I measured the width of the level at various points with digital calipers and found mine to be accurate to within 0.0010″. The average width was 2.5410″. For any application where a bubble level would be the proper tool, that is certainley more accurate than needed.The bubbles are large and very easy to see. The magnets are very strong and easily support the weight of the level.From a quality standpoint its an incredible tool. However, its more than twice the price of the blue one. For a DIYer on a budget, it might not be worth the extra cost. For a contractor, the extra durability might be worth the money. Especially since its guaranteed for life.

This is an outstanding box level. Extremely well-made and durable. Very accurate and easy to read. The perfect level for those BIG projects where accuracy is important. The magnetic feature is fantastic and the strong magnets really work to hold the level in place, freeing your hands. I had previously never used a level of this length, but I now realize how much easier my job would have been had I owned this level before. The hang hole is perfect for safe storage in the workshop when the level is not needed.

I am upgrading my box level tools and decided to obtain the new Milwaukee 59 in. Redstick Magnetic Box Level. The first thing noticeable with this box level is the easy-to-read bubble vials. It’s an all metal (aluminum) backbone, so there’s no weak plastic parts. It also has strong magnets that hold the level firmly on a metal surface without support. After using the Milwaukee 59 in. Magnetic Redstick Level for several weeks I am very impressed with it’s quality, accuracy and ease of use. The vials on the Milwaukee 59 in. Magnetic Redstick Level are amplified 2x and have an acrylic protective surface for easy cleaning. The level is milled to 0.029 degrees accuracy and comes with a lifetime warranty. Highly recommended for contractors or anyone needing a high quality box level.

With their acquisition of Empire Level, a company that has almost 100 years of experience with manufacturing high-quality levels, Milwaukee has really dove into the market. These new contractor-grade RedStick levels are built to the extreme, designed to compete directly with the Stabila levels that are very popular with carpenters and builders.These levels are built to the extreme, made to handle daily professional use, and the sometimes accidental abuse that happens on the job site. They are claimed to be “stronger than Stabila” with their all-metal inner-structural backbone and 10x more durable vials. The vials themselves are made in the USA. The levels have an accuracy tolerance of 0.029 degrees, or 0.0005 inches per inch, which is pretty much the industry standard in the high-end level market. The level carries a lifetime accuracy guarantee, as well as an overall limited lifetime warranty.I’ve been using it on sites over the last couple of weeks, and every tradesmen that I’ve showed it to has been impressed. The level is obviously very stout, the machining and overall fit and finish are excellent. The rare earth magnets hold the level firmly. The vials are very easy to read, and appear to be very durable.

The vials on these new Milwaukee REDSTICK magnetic box levels are insanely easy to read from any angle. The magnets are very very strong. I have them hanging on the inside roof of my work van and they hold with no issues. They have some weight compared to the blue brand that Home Depot sells, but its not anything extreme. The do feel substantially stronger than any other levels that I have owned or used. See pictures below for view-ability. I will admit, compared to the blue brand, these are very pricey, but I think they are worth it! I put the value at 4 because these levels are not cheap.

I love this Milwaukee level. They operate as advertised and are a solid great quality tool. The level itself is very strong and clean. The bubble is very clear and easy to read. I will not have a use for the magnetic side but I did try it out. I was very surprised how strongly it held on. This level is heavy duty great buy. I am very pleased with this purchase.

This massive level is absolutely wonderful. I used it for a couple projects. It is versatile and well made. I was able to cut insulation and use it as a guide down the roll. This gave me very accurate cuts. The level also has a heavy weight so it doesn’t move as you use it to cut with your knife. The magnets on each side are also very strong. Overall, this is an amazing tool!

I just love these Milwaukee Redstick levels! They are built tough, accurate, and are very easy to read. The handy thing about the 16″ level is that it fits right in your toolbox, but is also bigger than a torpedo level, and so is quite handy on the job site. The box level style is a little more bulky than a standard level, but the solid metal frame and rubber bumpers on the ends serve well to protect it. As anyone knows that has done any kind of project, levels will fall sooner or later, and only the good ones stay true. The magnets are quite strong, in fact I have bumped it while it was stuck to a metal surface and it moved, but it snapped right back and did not fall! It even has a handy hole for hanging it up in your shop. Of course the most important thing about any level, I found it to be true and accurate. This is a professional quality level at an affordable price.

This is a very nice heavy duty brand name box level. Easy to see that things are level when you look at it plus its magnetic to. I broke mine and had to get another one and since this was a good brand name and the picture showed it well I picked this one glad I did. This is a great level and I like it very much not cheap like some I have bought before.

The magnets in this level work great. It actually stuck to the corner bead through the drywall held up by the baseboard with no chance of falling.The level is nice and and easy to hold without the need for a handle cutaway since it is “Compact”. At 6 feet long this level works great ensuring true plumb.The sites are very easy to read and the level is sturdy and well made. It seems like it will take some pretty good abuse, time will tell.
