My quick level (tool) check has always been to level something with the level (tool) in question, then turn the level 180° so it's pointing the opposite way. If it's off, this will double the error and make it obvious; if the bubble is still centered then the object is level and the tool itself is good.

This.
Isn't this common knowledge ?
And also, do levels these days not have adjustment screws ?
Mine do, but then they are 40+ years old.

I've never seen one in 45 years of using them. On this side of the pond the good ones are constructed of heavy duty box sections instead of I beams and have solid acrylic square vials instead of round tubular ones. They're never off, but that doesn't prevent the level from being abused, such as being used as a pry bar or clamping a straight edge, which oddly enough, causes it to become no longer straight. 😵
