As far as I can tell 0.5 mm / m appears to be the standard acceptable error (seems a lot to me!).

As I do carpentry for a living I need professional tools that last. Hence I usually go for the mid range stabila levels, they are the ones with ribs and are much stiffer than those you have linked to.

Anyway let's say they are if I used the cheap ones they would bend or go out of level every week. I couldn't keep sending them off each week for replacement that would be a waste of time.
Entirely up to you I'm sure that range will be fine for you for diy use.

Does there always have to be someone who insists on answering rhetorical questions?
