What Customers Are Saying
The Lufkin tape measure is praised for its durable construction, easy-to-read markings, and accurate measurements. Many users find it provides good value for occasional or light-duty use. However, some customers noted the feet markings are hard to read, the tape feels a bit flimsy, and the locking mechanism is not as ergonomic as other models. Overall, the majority of reviews are very positive.

Would RecommendThis is a value priced tape measure with high quality features and components. It will be great for my home projects using the easy to read fractions.
Handy Dandy
Would RecommendI have purchased severeal of these in the past. They are a very good product for the money! Being able to see the center measurement directly under the total length saves so much time. Especially for the math challenged! The price is competitive to others on the market. If I loose it I always purchase another just like it.
Awesome!
Would RecommendI love this tape measure! The best feature is the midpoint finder!! I am always needing to find the center of a wall or project and its too much work to calculate in my head what exactly half is. This tape measure tells you the midpoint of your measurement!! Ingenious!
Handy Tape
Would RecommendI like the second set of numbers under the measurements that divide the measurement by 2. Even hough I am very good at math, this is a neat feature.
Find the Center
Would RecommendI bought this for the scale that shows the center-point of any measurement. Use it like any locking tape, but if you want to know the center-point of your measurement, use the bottom scale. The price was also very good (about half or more of comparable tapes).
Tape was good spring not so good
Would Recommend1st time I pulled the tape all the way the spring came lose.
Easy fractions
Would RecommendI like the way the fractions are laid out for you. No more guessing is that 1/8 or 1/16? Strong retrieval spring.
Good value for price
Would RecommendThis thing is permanently attached to my husband's side. He loves it! One drawback... Inch measurements are easy to read; however, feet measurement is printed in microscopic numbers. Would like to see those numbers a little larger.
Best tape ever
Would RecommendThis self centering tape saved me so much time and effort. I hung 250 pictures, all sizes.If you have never used 1 you need to try it. Lets say you measure a wall that is 93 5/8". Instead of racking your brain figuring what 1/2 of that is, you just look below the number and it has an extra set of numbers that shows what 1/2 the measurement is. A must for any DYI or contractor.
Great Product
Would RecommendThis tape measure is very handy with the "halved" measurements directly under the full measurement. Only problem I had with this is at the 87" mark, there were two chips out of the paint on the blade. each chip was about 1/8" dia. making that area of the tape measure unusable. But as soon as I noticed this flaw, I returned it to Lowes where I purchased it and they promptly exchanged it for a new, "un-flawed" tape measure.
solid tape measure
Would RecommendI really how this tape measure breaks down the lengths for you. I only wish lufkin would have a push button retraction like others, but for the price this is a solid tape measure. Also, when you lose it...its easy to find being an orange color.
Best Tape Measure I've had
Would RecommendDurable, high quality, good weight, retracts nicely, I thoroughly enjoy using this everyday!
Inches Only
Would Not RecommendMaybe I missed this in the description, I don't know. There are no feet, only inches. Good for some applications but not for me.
Lufkin 25 ft tape measure
Would RecommendJust what I expected from Lufkin. Works like a charm and does everything I could expect.
