Great Value!

Would Recommend

Saved my Deal. As a Newly Licensed Realtor, I get all kinds of requests, but, one client was adamant about me going in and measuring the room, since he was purchasing site unseen.. I felt panicky until a spirit said just "pick up a tape measure" from Lowes and measure for him on Facetime. It worked! My deal closed today. With all kinds of expenses (NAR Mess) and red tape and mental frustration, its no wonder many quit Real Estate and any other field here in America. Lowes is part of the solution...

poor design choices

Would Not Recommend

I poured over reviews to get the best tape for the buck. So i picked this one up. First, it is a solid tool, the finger brake feature is good, and the throw is as advertised. THAT BEING SAID, I was able to use this tape for 3 days of not even heavy use, just regular construction use. (well after 30 days, no returning!) The thumb lock ripped off. As I inspected it, I discovered that the actual button is held on with glue- it is not a contiguous piece. In addition, I realized that whoever designed...

Bought because of reviews, worst tape measure ever

Would Not Recommend

As someone who does a lot of DIY projects, I've never had to write such a bad review. I bought this because of 1) the supposed specs, 2) the reviews and 3) it being a 2-pack. What I got was twice the misery. I lost my Dewalt tape measure under my house and bought this because you can supposedly extend it at least 13 feet without it bending/snapping. 3 feet is more like it. Beyond that, this thing is pure misery. If I try to extend it beyond a few feet it immediately snaps or does a 180 twist and...
