Multi-detectors for stud/metal/AC

Is there one that actually works?

Being a cheapskate I'd like to buy a cheap one, of course. But all the reviews say they are a waste of time and that you "get what you pay for" etc.

But then it seems the expensive ones don't work very well either. I watched an online review of a Bosch one costing about £60 and that, too, was rubbish. And read a DIY forum, where people were complaining about theirs being useless, but they'd paid £70 for it, etc.

If they are all hit and miss I may as well get a cheap one and take my chances.

But I just wanted to know: does anyone have one (cheap or expensive) that actually works?

Thanks

I know this is exceedingly boring, but surely someone must have an opinion... Piglet John?
