What Customers Are Saying
Customers overwhelmingly praise the exceptional readability with large, double-sided numbering that improves accuracy in low-light conditions and from distance. The solid, heavy construction features a rubberized case, reinforced blade, and shock-resistant design that withstands demanding use. Many highlight the comfortable ergonomic touches, smooth retraction control, and double-sided hook for versatile measuring. The clear markings and superior balance inspire confidence during extended projects. A few report minor hook grip issues or tension concerns, but these are vastly outweighed by widespread satisfaction and reliability.

Tape of all tapes
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This tape measure has a feature that like is better than using what I always called the brake/stop to slow down the retraction of the tape. Awesome feature and the stability of the tape stretched out is excellent.

I bet you cannot find a better tape measure!
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When I started opening the package from UPS, my thinking was another "chrome" tape measure...but no, a very nice dark blue, feeling better... Then the weight of the tape assured me of it's quality! As an old man, the wide tape and extra large numbers really fit my eye or eyes. Thumb or finger stop on the bottom is very useful when measuring short lengths. Love how long the tape extends without bending, really good when working alone(see attache...

Very well made, easy to read
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This tape is very sturdy, with the stiffest blade I’ve ever used. The extra width of the blade makes it easier to read. As a furniture maker, it’s perfect for initial rough cuts in lumber. Due to its bulk, it would be cumbersome to carry around on your belt all day.

Very pleasantly surprised!
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It is my go-to tape measure now. It’s professional in both looks and operation. It’s not a cheap, flimsy tape measure.. Far from it. It’s built like a tank and the fact that I can read it easily from top or bottom is definitely a big plus. My kids aren’t going to borrow this one!

Tape measurer
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am a fan of the numbering on the bottom of the tape that allows you to measure. Never had seen that before on any other tape measures. This is a very handy feature.I also like that the tape is wide and easy to extend and retract.

25' Straight line.
Would Not Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have used this tape measure for measuring wood and fabrics. I find the two view a bit clumsy but a novel idea. One negative thing about the tape is the weight. It is a bit heavy and a little bulkier than I'm use to.

Terrific tape
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This tape measure exceeds the description. It extends and retracts smoothly with little effort. The lock is easy to operate both locking and unlocking. The numbers are easy to read and visible even in low light conditions. Seems durable and is lightweight and easy to carry around.

Very good tape measure
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I like the big numbers on the tape. I like the numbers are on both sides if the tape. It slides out very easy and it locks easy too. I have used it on the jobsite measuring multiple things. I like the hooks on both sides of the end of the tape also

Good Tape Measure
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My rating is more like 4.5 stars. I love the big easy to read numbers but the best thing is writing on both sides! I also really like this system of being able to slow the tape down. The only downside of this tape is the thickness of the overall unit

Great when you're alone.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Irwin Strait-Line tape is very easy to read in nearly all situations. The tape itself is heavy and stiff enough to measure most things without bending, allowing single person usage with little trouble. I was able to measure sheet goods before cutting with no problems. It is a little bulky, but not over-heavy. Probably best for shop use or carried on a heavy belt. The brake on the tape saves knuckles.

Irwin Strait-Line Review
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My new go to tape measure! This tape measure feels great in my hands, as it has a nice rubber coating. It has large display numbers on the front and back of the tape measure. Heavy duty belt clip with a finger hole spot to slow down the retraction. Numbers are big and clear.

This tape measure is perfect for contractors!
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently started using the Irwin straight line tape measure, and there are several features that I really appreciate. Firstly, the two-sided numbers make it incredibly easy to read measurements from different angles, saving me time and effort. The 17-inch maximum reach is also a handy feature, allowing me to measure longer distances without the need for additional tools. Another great aspect of this tape measure is the retraction control, wh...

Nice but Heavy Big 25' Tape Measure
Would Not Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a pretty solid, heavy-feeling 25' tape measure, but despite the weight of it, it is still comfortable to hold and use, and one advantage of the weight is that sometimes it will even hold itself open on a flat surface - don't even have to lock it, the rubber is grippy enough! However it suffers from a very common flaw that most of these fat 25' tape measures have - the divisions are printed on the tape are fairly fat, especially at the e...
