Excellent value, Long lasting

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have owned a PowerLock 25' tape measure for years. It is solid, survives some abuse (dropping, banging around in a toolbox, outdoor use where it gets muddy, etc) and keeps on working perfectly. Excellent value for the money/quality.

Excellent Tape Measure

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this tape measure 4 years ago, and it is still working like new! The body is still in great shape, and the tape has not changed shape. I would definitely recommend this to everyone! Stanley is my go to product because they are built to last!

Durable beyond compare!

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I started my construction career 35 years ago with this tape measure(still have it) and use it still in my shop. Just bought a new one for outside and away projects this year as my original deserved a well earned rest! As a remodeling contractor it was used constantly and as I stated; it’s still going. Showing a bit of wear and tear, but it’s a family heirloom going to my son. Thanks Stanley!

Best tape measures out there.

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I own a total of 4 of these now. They are reliable, durable, easy to use. I have abused these and they still work great. I have had all of them for ten years or more. Best of all they are Union made in my own home state!

The staple of tape measures

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] You can not go to a job site, metal shop, woodshop, or practically anywhere else where people use a tape and not see at least five of these in use. I've had mine for a extremely long time, I've had to carve my name into it because the last few I had always seemed to sprout legs and walk off. These are robust, durable, and dependable tapes... And if you don't have one, you need one.

Original and tough

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve bought 3 of these tapes and put them in different spots so I’m never looking for 1. They’ve never failed me yet! Good tough tapes!

Most Dependable Tape Measure

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Of all the tape measures that I have accumulated over my years of construction and woodworking, this is my favorite and most dependable.

Withstands the test of time!

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Stanley POWERLOCK II 25' Tape Measure is a champion of longevity. I purchased this tape measure approximately 37 years ago for a home project and it still works flawlessly to this day. Although I do own other tape measures, this Stanley POWERLOCK II is my “go-to” tape for anything I need to measure quickly & accurately. It really holds up to time and use...This tape measure has been dropped off ladders and roofs, it has been dragged behind ...

Love the PowerLock Tape Measure

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased the 25 ft. PowerLock Tape Measure about 7 years ago or more and I have to confess when it says it powerlocks that is exactly what it does. I received one from a local company for a Christmas gift and that one has a lock on it, but you can set it and the tape just keeps on creeping on it. So my favorite, of course, is my Stanley. Thank you for making such a great product.

Works for me

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Needed a 25' tape for measuring my deck project, I already have a 16' Stanley powerlock but needed the extra length. The Stanley product has worked well, could not ask for a better tape measure. I expect it to last for years

Excellent stand out

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After two years, this is still my best tape measure for all measuring needs. Long enough to do most jobs, fault-free rewind, clear numbers and the 7' stand out is so handy.

Basic Perfection - Old Faithful

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I - like many of us DIYer's - have more than one Tape Measure. In fact - I think that at last count I had 5. They just seem to be one of those things that you just end up with a few of over the years. Whether I've received them as stocking stuffers, "here - I have an extra's", or impulse buys - they've added up over the years. Some promise this or that, are brightly colored, or have new-fangled features - but none compare to my Stanley 25...
