There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
I'm looking at them both now as I write this review. Here's my take on the Sola. The Sola is the same length, and essentially the same height, and a little heavier than the Stabila. The casting is a little cleaner on the Sola - there isn't an unfinished edge anywhere on it. The Sola has a much clearer sight line to the horizontal level vial on the Sola - the vial is cylindrical (outside profile) as opposed to the rectangular block that contains the Stabila vial - so there is no "edge" on the acrylic block to look through on the Sola, and the vial itself is larger and easier to see. The vertical bubbles are essentially the same size and readability.
Both are accurate and very well made. If weight is a consideration (as in you carry in your tool belt all day) then I'd probably give the nod to the Stabila. If you eyes are getting a little older, the Sola is a little easier to read. While the overall dimensions of the two are close to identical, putting them side by side visually, the bulk of the body on the Sola is a little over a half inch taller than the Stabila, so the Stabila would be an easier it in a tool pouch. Shape-wise, and I recognize that this is a very subjective comment, the Stabila is a little easier to handle and hold, partly because of lighter weight, but also slightly smaller bulk and because of the shape of the casting itself.
Bottom line is that the Sola is a worthy competitor, well-made (built like a tank) and has the feel of a tool made by craftsmen who are very proud of their craft. Definitely a keeper.
= more China junk
Sola proved themselves to me with this one, I hope to swap out some of my other old levels in the near future.
I do worry about that large bubble up top, it feels sturdy enough, but a long fall from a ladder and landing on the wrong spot might damage it. But I'm not sure that any other level would fair much better.
Here are my pro's
1) It is really easy to read and there isn't too much space between the bubble and the end marks.
2) The magnet is in the center as opposed to the Stabila. I will not use my Stabila on two-hole pins!
3) It is easy to spot from a distance and your friends/coworkers probably don't have one.
My con's
1) The v-groove has paint on it unlike the Stabila. I'm nitpicking here....
2)The plumb and 45 vials are a little smaller.
