Parkside Multidetector PMML 5 A2 vs Bosch Professional GMS 120

Lets see is it really worth the 100 Euros for the Bosch Professional GMS 120. Testing it against Lidl's Parkside PMML 5 A2 multidetector.

Dont lay the other Device underneath, it works with an magnetic field and detects the other device

ma anche sotto al pannello, se rileva a 120 mm sente tutto attorno, la prova va fatta su muro di mattoni o cemento dove conosci la posizione dei tubi non ad aria aperta

I decided to purchase the Bosch and I did not like it at first. But after working with it a few times I realized I was not using it correctly - just like in this video. Bosch recommends after detecting a stud or metal, to go back and forth three times to let it further pinpoint the object and its center. In this video, you approach the stud from one side and continued to the other side of the stud and left it at that. Never went back and forth. The Bosch learns more with each pass. I found it to be quite sensitive to metal far below the surface. The Bosch in your video was likely detecting the rebar below plus the other stud sensor that you laid too close to the test surface.

ciao hai ragione anche secondo me rileva lo strumento parkside e anche sotto al pannello. Come ti sembra ad oggi questo bosch? hai provato su muratura se trova tubi o linea corrente ? grazie

Could it be that there is something below the ground tiles on your floor that the tools detects in the first test?

[@icku]

Its ground floor so only rebar if any

[@utente445588]

@@icku infatti potrebbe essere armatura che da fastidio

[@mikemazzoli1990]

according to that second one the whole wall was metal underneath

[@tekwin865]

The most important thing with this tools: Put your second hand on the surface for grounding!

[@romankovac6271]

You're taking the wrong measurements. You must always have one hand on the object to be measured, i.e. on the wall.

He didn't read the manual 😊

Bought the Parkside, after that i watched this video, the Parkside will be returned to Lidl, thanx

[@icku]

Good choice!

[@Mr-RA]

Same here, bought the parkside today but it s not really working as expected. I didnt have the time to check some reviews before 😅

[@yordandakata5747]

Same here

[@romankovac6271]

Like grounding.

[@cestvraimenthorrible3465]

The bosch detects the metal or wood from far away. This isnt how it should be. The Parkside is not reliable, but also a brand like bosch scores too low .

[@pitbulltebra]

parkside not good

[@wederweder316]

the bosch detector is tragic I bought it and I say it's crap

[@mantolis33]

Bad test

[@icku]

Waiting for good one from you 😂

[@mantolis33]

@@icku True, thank you for your time and effort. It is only that there are very likely rebars in concrete floor and maybe other device is to close to the test device.

@@mantolis33 Even if there are rebars, they are in the same position for both detectors
