What Customers Are Saying

Customers overwhelmingly praise the framing square for its bright orange color and easy-to-read black markings, with many noting superior visibility compared to duller alternatives. Reviewers consistently highlight durability and value for money, calling it a solid starter tool. However, many report a critical flaw: the large manufacturer sticker permanently damages measurement markings when removed, rendering the tool unusable. Despite this significant issue, most customers who avoid sticker removal find the square reliable and accurate for everyday marking and cutting tasks.

Cost more money than the price.

Would Not Recommend

I urge not to buy this unless you want to spend a half hour carefully removing a sticker and struggling to not damage the painted on markings. This sticker is huge, and must be painstakingly removed with razor knife. I cannot remember the price, it was only one in stock, but you could not give me another for free, they should pay me for the time to remove the sticker.
