What Customers Are Saying
The tape measure is praised for its sturdy, durable construction and easy-to-read markings. The dual-locking mechanism allows the tape to be extended and held in place without retracting, making one-person measuring more convenient. Users appreciate the controlled retraction that prevents blade whiplash, as well as the standout length of around 7 feet. Overall, the tape measure is considered a high-quality, versatile tool well-suited for various projects, though a few customers experienced minor issues like the clip breaking or the markings rubbing off.

Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought 6 of these, one for each carpenter and 3 more for the office, myself, and my son! They have the best feature of all, the positive stand out until your ready to reel it in with one click. Great thought went into this functionality. The stand out and reach is perfect for all scenarios, inside and outside measurements! They also have an untouchable durability! I’ve dropped mine 14’ from the rafters to the concrete floor with no noticeable...

Great Automatic Feature
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the automatic locking feature of the Stanley Dual Lock 25' Tape Measure (STHT360310). It works the opposite of the standard locking tapes. Instead of pushing to lock, you push to release! You pull the tape out and it stays out until you release it, or rock the latch the other way to lock it down even tighter. I also like the hole on the bottom rear corner. I use it to attach a cord to pull the tape measure out of the pocket of my shop...

Works great
Would RecommendHad it for a few months of light use. Big fan, works all the time and like the locking mechanism.
Graduations rub off.
Would Not RecommendI liked the dual lock in theory when I first used it. However, within a few weeks the locking mechanism dragging on the tape rubbed off the graduation marks. It is difficult to read eighths on the first 2 feet of tape now.

Dual lock makes one person measuring easy
Would RecommendGreat for measuring longer distances. Dual lock capability allows hands free marking and helps when measuring by yourself.

STANLEY TAPE MEASURE
Would RecommendVery good product. This tape measure is well built and easily locks and unlocks.

Good tool
Would RecommendI like this because it is self locking. That is the only type I buy now. I have several of these in my shop and they work great. I have other brands too, but the tape creeps back into the housing. This is not the case with this tape measure. The price is really good too. I would recommend this tape to anyone needing a tape measure.

Too short
Would Not RecommendThe tape is way too short. The one I use is cloth and 50 ft, therefore inaccurate. I need a 50 ft metal tape.

DualLock Adds Ease to Measuring
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Have been using my new DualLock 25' Stanley Tape. The tape size allows easy fit and retrieving from my tool belt. The DualLock frees up a hand to help in measuring projects and really like that the tape stays without having to secure thru a lock. When needed the lock is very easy to engage and use.

Stanley 25 ft DualLock Tape Measure
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have only been using this tape measure for about a month but it has already become my always-go-to tape measure. The fat blade has excellent readable markings. Especially the fraction markings as they are large enough to see easily and, more importantly are aligned exactly with their associated hash mark, meaning I no longer have to start counting the little lines to know how long the piece I'm working with is. I also like the "DualLock" as w...
