Stabila Extendable (7-12 foot) Plate to Plate Level

This level is much better than the Irwin expandable level. I purchased an Irwin to replace my 18 year old expandable that the original manufacturer and inventor had built. I had to throw it out after 1 job. It is not the same company. I took another chance on this Stabila "expandable" level, which is a requirement if you frame anywhere near the Rocky Mountain winds. I found it's much stronger and heavier than the Irwin. I like it's slide design. So far it has been accurate and it hasn't loosened up as did the other brand. So far, so good. I highly recommend.
