What Customers Are Saying
Customers overwhelmingly praise this tape measure for its exceptional magnetic hook—described as the strongest available—which enables secure solo measuring on metal surfaces. The bold, high-contrast numbering allows quick, accurate readings in low light. Reviewers consistently highlight the rugged construction, comfortable grip, and smooth retraction, with many reporting over a year of heavy daily use without issues. The compact 25-foot design fits easily in pockets or tool belts, while the brake mechanism prevents finger injuries. A small number report occasional locking or retraction issues, but most consider this a reliable, durable investment.

Would RecommendThe magnetic tip is great for metal pipe work
Wow
Would Not RecommendWhat a piece of junk. I can't believe it. This is not a tool that they put the Klein name on. I am a big Kien fan. But this makes me second guess my blind allegiance to Klein. I have a ton of tape measures and this ranks as the worst tape measure I've ever bought. By the way I kept it just as they put might actually or should I say magically come back and prove it's worth magically.

Solid tape
Would RecommendBit heavy but well constructed. Like the ability to slow down retraction. Works well at a distance. Good rigidity when extending away from yourself.
Learn the phase table and multiplier
Would Not RecommendThe magnet breaks very easy, it doesn't spring back smoothly, and the tape snaps at around the 4' mark. It's my 5th tape measure in 2 years. This time I bought the 16' hoping it lasts longer than 25'. Only reason I keep buying this item is because it has the cheat sheet on the back for the multiplier and 3 phase table. Other than that, it sucks.

Buy this tape measure!
Would RecommendBest tape measure I’ve ever had… nice wide tape with high contrast numbers… and on too and underside of tape. Great 13’+ standoff and with magnetic end. Klein Tools quality!
Tape broke
Would Not RecommendI bought this tape 6 months ago and broke right at 2 1/2 inch mark. Not happy with the strength of the actual tape itself. Love Klein but a bad experience with the tape measure. I guess back to the milwaukee

Locking stinks
Would Not RecommendWhen you lock the tape measure you better have a pair of kliens to beat it to the unlock position but tape measure has great info on back side

Broke after three uses.
Would Not RecommendI had big hopes for this tape measure. I like Klein, I liked the feel and action of this tape, as well as the double hooks. But then the return mechanism that automatically spins that tape back into itself reversed. My tape measure would push the tape out and would not let it go back in, making it useless. I used Milwaukee tape measures in the passed, but with those, the tape itself was weak and would dent and not roll up well after a short time. Not sure what brand I will try next I’m the searc...
