Best out there

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Just recently purchased a few new tapes, got to the job used the first tape I grabbed. Couldnt even make it over 12 ft. Before the tape collapsed. Turn around and returned those tapes and spent some time looking g and found the Stanley fat max. Love it back at the site and rebooked the tape, if I would've been a little less clumsy I would've made it 23 of the 25 ft. Needed to get a good measurement without the tape falling of the walls. Thank ...

Fatmax 25' Measuring Tape Review

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I found that this tape has a better return spring than other comparable Tape in the same price range. I have broken the springs in many competitors tapes but never on a Stanley FatMax Tape. I like the durable case that houses the FatMax 25' tape. Overall this is the Best retractable tape I have ever owned. Keep up the Great work Stanley.

Great measuring tool

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] never have enough meausuring tapes, this is my third one from Stanley. I like this one due to the fact it will not bend when stretched over 10 feet. A lot of boards I measure are at our below that. With the added hook it can easily grab the end while I am standing at the other end, where I usually measure to cut, make for an easy one man operation. It is tough as it has taken a few falls and keeps working, no different than my older ones,...

Never think about it

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve had a fat max tape for years, doesn’t look as snazzy as the current model, but man, the thing rolls in and out perfectly smoothly and locks as good as the day I got it. Not a tool I think about replacing or even wearing out.

Sturdy and Reliable

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my favorite measuring tape by far. I like the rugged and solid build. I’ve dropped it a couple times but it hasn’t shown too many bad affects. When I get it out past 10 feet the auto lock doesn’t hold as well as it does when in shorter lengths. It’s been good so far and doesn’t have any kinks.
