What Customers Are Saying

This tape measure is well-constructed with durable, heavy-duty materials. It has large, easy-to-read markings and an impressive standout capability, extending up to 15 feet without buckling. The versatile end hook can grip from multiple angles, and the smooth retraction has a thumb brake for controlled speed. However, some users found the tape to be a bit flimsy, the belt clip loose, and the retraction too strong. Overall, this is a reliable and feature-rich tool suitable for both DIY and professional use.

Disappointed

Would Not Recommend

I really like Crescent tools but this one really hit a nerve . Wouldn't retract after a week and never was dropped. I assume its the magnets . I really hope this flaw was fixed

Great warranty

Would Recommend

Great tape that does what you need it to do. The locking mechanism stopped working on mine, so I submitted a warranty claim. A week later, a replacement tape showed up in the mail. I don't expect tools to be perfect, but I do expect a company to stand by their products. Crescent Lufkin / Apex proved to me that they do, and I'll always remember that.

Misplaced my tape measure.

Would Recommend

Flimsy tape. Couldn't stand up beyond 3'. Bought on sale, so now I know why. It will work fine as a back up for horizontal use.

One of the better options in this price range

Would Recommend

Best tape in this price range. I now have 3 of these to scatter around the job. I'd have rated it 5 stars and said it was the best tape measure ever, but it the end on my oldest has taken a beating and refuses to hang on to what I hook it to. Otherwise it has held up to drops off of roofs, through ceilings, off scaffolding so it can definitely take a beating. I like it.

Horrible tape measure

Would Not Recommend

End of tape will not stay on edge of board. So, you have to have someone hold it or find a way to keep it there.
