What Customers Are Saying
Customers overwhelmingly praise this tape measure for exceptional readability, durability, and reliable performance. The large, high-contrast numbers and wide tape design make measurements easy to read without glasses, while the sturdy construction remains rigid even at extended lengths. Users consistently highlight smooth retraction, secure locking, and robust build quality, with many switching from other brands. A small number report minor issues like a flimsy belt clip or occasional hook catch problems, but these rarely diminish overall satisfaction. Most customers feel they received excellent value and would purchase again.

love the value for this tape measure, It shares a lot of the same features as the Stanley fat max. love the standout amd the federal overall feel of the tape measure. my only complaint is the belt clip. As a construction manager I no longer put on my tool bags, but have to carry a tape.measure with me so it's always on my side. Within several days of being new the flimsy belt clip bent and the tape measure would fall off of my belt whenever I was bent over. please spend 10 cents more and build i...
Fabulous heavy duty tape measure.
Would RecommendMy tool box is full of cheap, light weight tape measures. Each has an issue. Will retract, will not lock. This will solve all of those problems.
great
Would Recommendi like the strength of the tape, Hope it last me a long time.
Seems to be a good product for the price.
Would RecommendI have several tape measures and all have been 1" wide, which only allows you to pull the blade out to about 8 ft max. This one is 1 1/4" wide and stand that blade standout is 11 ft, mine is regularly going to over 12 ft before bending. Appears to be pretty study for a decent price. Time will tell if it holds up to being in the bottom of a tool box.
Does Craftsman tape measure last just as long as a
Would RecommendIt's a good product I'll pay $16 something dollars instead of $25 stands out over an inch wide it's a good tape measure $25 for a tape measures ridiculous it's been working Craftsman tools for 50 years

Great
Would RecommendNice Tape
Maybe good for a weekend warrior
Would Not RecommendI'm in construction, and have always bought the Stanley fat max. Then Lowes stopped carrying them,so I figured I'd try the craftsman out. Of the two i bought, the blades don't hold up to every day use, and the increments are starting to wear off on the edges on one of them. These tape measures are used for building cabinets, and trim work, so they are not exposed to the elements. I will not buy another, and tell everyone I know how shoddy they are
