Kobalt 100' tape

I bought this 100' tape measure as a requirement for my Interior Design degree classes. It fits into my backpack easily and isn't too heavy, plus, I love the color!

Kobalt tools

Well made product. Same as all other Kobalt tools.

Descent

Great tape for home user, affordable. Don’t know if it would hold up in a construction invironment.

100 Ft Tape

Bought this product to help get a rough estimate of width & depth for a proposed house that is 94W X 80D on a current lot. Haven't used the tape measure yet but being 100 feet it should help with the proposed measurements.

Does the job well

the only thing I would add to it would be a an expanding "claw" the could anchor into the ground or wood. nothing a nail or spike can't take care of though.

Steel tape

It was broken in the package. Like someone returned it and it was just put back on the shelf

Best Tape for measuring rooms in buildings

I had been using a steel cased 50' tape measure for decades, often regretting it was not long enough to finish some interior spaces. When it finally quit, I went to Tools in Lowe's and was pointed to the perfect solution. I did not like the ones that are exposed with only a frame. This one is fully enclosed, so the tape can't wander off while trying to rewind. The finger loop is great for the partner to hold it. Reels out and back very easily. Easy to read and stiff enough not to get twiste...

Great Tape for Fence

This Kobalt 100 ft tape works great. I build privacy fences. I have needed a long tape for s while to make estimates quicker.

Kobalt has also done a good job on a shiftable catch to hang on wood as needed. It drops into a tool belt easily and is pretty narrow. The reel is a ma hassle. The price is great als...

Perfect for a cargo pocket

I'm a rookie in archery, I needed a cheaper way to get distance measurements then a $200 dollar range finder. This helped me tune out to 30yd and with it being very compact, I can take it with me before I setup my tree stand. I can measure a few key spots so I get a better idea of the distance for future shots. Plus it's blue lol :D

Tape Breaks Easily

Got this about a year ago, haven't used it that much, but did have some longer runs I needed to measure. Tape broke the first time because it got pinched by some lumber. Fixed it kept using, then stored it inside for the winter. But it broke again in a different place while winding it up (Actually while the end hit the case). Not at all impressed. Overall the case feels pretty solid, winds up pretty quick, and is a decent package. If the tape was durable I'd love it, but without that it's ...

Kobalt 100 foot tape measure

I shopped several retailers and the Kobalt tape had the best price/quality.
