Ratings & Reviews for Stanley undefined

One of the best

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Owned a lot of tape measures in the past and have yet to find any that were better than my old Stanley tape measure. Some I had were part of a tool set and others were picked up along the way. They worked in a pinch but nothing held up for too long. Saw this one and I was in love. Bought it and haven't look back. Can definitely take a beating and still holds up well.

Made in USA

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The FATMAX tape measure is the only tape I use. Made in the USA. Can't get any better than that.

Great tape

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use this tape everyday and love it. I've tried multiple higher prices tape measures and have always come back to this one.

Very good quality

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this measuring tape after my Milwaukee measuring tape broke after dropping it . I have dropped this measuring tape about 30 times know and has not broke. Maybe a scuff but can’t easily be wiped if. I like how real good the quality feels and how it’s not heavy. Thank you Stanley tools for the great quality tools .

Tough

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Survived several drops, very tough, wish I hadn't lost it.

Can’t go wrong. A classic

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Growing up, all I saw my dad carry were FatMaxes and PowerLocks. In the Texas sun, PowerLocks can get a little toasty on my belt, which is why I always go for the FatMax. I’ve never really needed the 35’, and the 25’ just feels right. Coated in rubber so it won’t slide off the job box and a magnetic tip strong enough to hold its own weight when you string it up to a duct 18’ above you. You just can’t go wrong.

The best around

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Stanley is synonymous with many things, but these days great tapes are the first that come to mind. The FATMAX may be a little thicker than average but makes up for it im features including the rubber overmold that stays put on a surface, clearly legible and helpful markings, and the best unsupported extension length I’ve found. Beyond that, it’s durable like a tank. Can’t go wrong here.

Lives Up to Its Name

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have several 25’ FatMax tape measures. First tried it about 7 years ago and loved it. Now I have the 25’, 30’, 35’, and 40’ tapes. The 25’ is perfect. Fits nicely in my tool pouch and seems to last forever. Stanley = Always Dependable.

14 foot no bend break

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] love that it is ridged enough to reach long gaps without breaking. Easy to read also

STANLEY FATMAX Auto-Lock tape measure

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have had the STANLEY FATMAX Auto-Lock tape measure in my toot box for a while. It's a go-to measuring device that is very dependable I love the Protective full tape blade coating.

Drywaller’s dream tape!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have used 25’ tape measures from other makers but this tape is my all time favorite! It fits in my hand comfortably, feels of good quality materials and craftsmanship, and the markings for the measurements are crisp and clear making reading measurements easy!

Best out there!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have had this fatmax forever and its by far my best tape measure. Love it and it is bulletproof!

Best fat max tape meassure

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Does not break or kink and reach is amazing. Love the wide tape an easy to read. I only buy the fatmax tapes. Always retracts am does the job. Unlike other brands

Rusty

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Tape face corroded so bad I couldn't use it. Had to discard it

Best tape measure I own

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It is a really great tape measure they are a stand up company with their warranty. I had an older tape that I used for years and it finally gave out and no questions asked it was replaced.

FatMax's brother MaxSteel

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The date in the tape of my MaxSteel 25' measure says 1988, so I've had this quite a long time. The bright yellow case is very durable, and has survived many drops from my toolbelt. This is one tough tape measure. Model number on this one is 33-599 and if the FatMax is even half the MaxSteel, you will end up keeping this measure quite a long time. It is easy to find in my toolbox and has been a key reason that my projects come out as expected.

The only tape I'll buy

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been using the classic Fatmax consistently for the last 10 years straight. Honestly, I've only needed a couple replacements in that full decade of heavy use. I recently bought a 2 pack, so I have some back ups. Whether I'm rough framing or doing fine finish work, this is my go-to tape measure ALWAYS!

The Yellow Gold Standard

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Everyone knows what STANLEY’s tape measures look like because ALL the Pro’s use them. I myself have used the Stanley Fat Max for the past 30 years. At least - that’s what I think - I started buying Fat Max when they first became available. Until then I was using other Stanley tapes but they would break after a month - at the most. When the Fat Max came out it was CLEARLY a superior product having “blade guard” on the hook end. That’s where tape...

I like the durability of the tool.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Really enjoy the use of this tool, I'm glad that I bought it.

Tape locks well; & can extend for at least 10 feet

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have had it for at least 10 years; & because if the great warrantees offered by Stanley Black & Decker, I know that it will be replaced if it “ever fails”?!
