Would RecommendWorks great, first one I've seen with the centering helps save time doing the math. My new favorite!!!
Very functional tape.
Would RecommendTape measures are a staple for nay project and the usually take a beating. This one is appropriate for all my needs and while I haven’t had it long, it appears to be quite durable.
good idea horrible in real life
This tape is incredibly hard to read. It is almost impossible to separate the marks from one another. It was a good idea back in that air conditioned office. Out here in the working world it is worthless. Lufkin, give me something easy to use, please.
The measuring tape exactly what I expected.
Would RecommendThe tape is accurate and I like the riveted end key
Hard to read.
Would Not RecommendFootage very small to see. Not very user friendly.
Great Tape
Would RecommendI like this tape because it instantly tells you the middle of what ever you are measuring. The numbers are large enough to read and the halves are in red. It is also stiff enough to do about 10 feet.
Size
Would RecommendI like the size of this tape measure, I have 2 others and they're just to big. But, overall it's the Perfect size
Confusion
Would Not RecommendGood concept. I find it difficult to read. The foot markings are gone. I don't figure halves enough to warrant this measure. The slide lock is different, not so ergonomic.
Lufkin Tape Measure
Would RecommendWe bought this tape measure because we are doing home renovations and it makes getting the most accurate measure easier. Love it!
Nice Tape
Would RecommendI like this tape because it has the half way point in red. The only down side is that the foot number is not as noticeable as I am used to in a tape measure. The price is right on it too.
will not close
Would Not RecommendHave only had this for about a month and will not close fully, never been stretched to max.
Great tape
Would RecommendLove this tape so much I bought two. Makes measuring and finding good the center so easy.
Too "Cluttered"
Would Not RecommendIn my opinion you give up a lot to gain a little. What you gain is the ability to see on the tape measure what 1/2 of the actual distance is. What you loose is the following (1) clear marks at every foot - The labels for each foot are only about 1/8 inch high so are not clear from any distance at all. They are easily lost in all the other stuff that's printed on the tape. (2) There are no designations of feet and inches on the same side of the tape (for example 3 ft 8 inches). The only clear ...
I really enjoy using this tape measure as it has easily readable measurements. The only negative I would state is the tape is a bit on the flimsy side, ok for a weekend do-it your self person.
Good Quality Tape Measure
Would RecommendI always find what I need at Lowe's!
