Had a leak under the sink in our kitchen. I don’t want to imagine what this would have meant on a larger scale, compared the 20€ I spent on the sensor and the 10mins it costed me to install it.

It sucks when you have a leak sensor, estimate the likeliest place that water will appear, miss it by a few inches thanks to the way water goes where it wants, and you end up having to manually catch the leak.
