What Customers Are Saying
The product features a durable, heavy-duty design that can withstand drops and impacts. It has an impressive standout distance of up to 17 feet without bending or collapsing, and easy-to-read large numbers on both sides of the tape. The tape measure also includes a convenient finger brake for controlled retraction and reinforced first 6 inches for extended lifespan. However, some users reported issues with the tape becoming bent or the locking mechanism breaking after limited use. Additionally, a few found the overall size and weight to be bulky and less ergonomic.

Would Not RecommendThought it was great at first, until I rolled it all the way out one time, now it doesn't roll up correctly and is a huge piece of junk

It works
Would RecommendThis worked really for the project I was working on . The lock is a little rough, but it works. The numbers are large.
Best tape ever

Strait-line 36' Tape
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This Erwin Strait-line 35' tape measure has so far proven to be very helpful with my projects. I have always depended on a 25' tape and often had to improvise. Although the tape is heavy, it is extremely well built and easy to hold. I won't be intentionally dropping it to test, but the blue cladding will no doubt protect from damage. The reinforced first six inches will also extend the life of the scale. This is where other of my tapes have fa...

Tape Measure
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very well built. Extends without assistance further than any tape I've ever had (almost 10 feet). Retracts as it should and has a convenient lock for the blade. The tape is quite large and easy to grip. The magnetic end is handy when your working around or with metal. I feel the clip to attached it to your belt or whatever could be designed a little better. Kinda difficult to use (too stiff).

Heavy duty tape measure.
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] A solid well built tape measure that has excellent stand out qualities for reaching high places. Easy to read and to lock into place. I like the traction control on the bottom. The large hook stays in place.

Big but bulky
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This tape is a monster...at 35' in length you can square up tall walls prior to sheathing and the large hook holds securely as you walk down a sill plate laying out joists. Overall a well made tape with the only drawback being it is rather bulky. It was difficult to get it to stay in my tape holder on my belt and most of the time it just stayed on the deck until it was time to measure a long run again. Handy to have on the job but a bit much...
