Works great. A little bit bulky.

Great for when you are working alone or giving quotes. Doesn’t work so good on carpets but still a great tool to have.

Good tool and good price. A little bulky but still a good helper.

Received this as a gift from the family. It’s a nice tape measure overall but would not have bought it myself due to the weight and the price. It’s a bit heavy and bulky but otherwise performs as advertised.

Great Product, easy to just push the button and tape goes across the floor 25′. Push the reverse and it retracts great.

Bought one of these each for my husband & father. They get some use out of them, but generally the convenience of being able to use it with one hand is offset by the heaviness of the tape measure. Its also slow to extract & retract. I find its easier to use for little projects like picture hanging or crown molding measuring than measuring room dimensions. As a woman with medium-smallish hands, I find the weight & the dimensions are a little bulky and awkward.

This is a great tool to add to your toolbox. When trying to measure across wide spans or working alone, this tape is a godsend. A little bulky and I would like to see it redesigned for button cell batteries to reduce the size. I bought 2 more just so I would have one in my pole barn and workshop.

Works great for small jobs that you’re working on by yourself.

I went from NiCad batteries to Li for this unit, but that is probably the amount of wear and tear I put on it as a Facility Manager.Usually a crew of one on jobs, so this is essential and a time saver instead of walking the length of the measurement with a normal tape.Definitely not something to wear like a normal tape due to the actuator adding some girth to the unit, but definitely on the top of my tool bag.Current price was amazing, I bought several and gave a few as gifts.Knabber

This is the gadget guys tape. I bought 3, 1 for me and the others for fathers day gifts. I tried to order 3 more but since it was such a great deal Home Depot was out of stock. I will keep my eyes open to order more when and if they become available.

Definitely a useful tool. Not perfect for every situation but extremely handy if you are trying to measure with one hand while holding something with the other. Standout is decent but seven feet is pushing it. It is large and heavy and can be somewhat unwieldy, but pros far outweigh the cons.

Received tape just in time to measuer all the rooms in my home for new carpeting. This is the best thing to happen to a tape measure since the invention of numbers !! Much, much faster and easier than a conventional tape. It does away with the need for a helper. Easy battery insertion, hefty tape doesn’t bend or flop around like a conventional tape measure and the price is outstanding. The only way to make it any better is give it away. Thanks Home Depot

What a great deal! I bought 10 of these to give to good clients for referrals. Probably not a tape that you would want on your belt all day, but definately handy in those one person situations where a conventional tape just teaches you how to cuss. So far it works great and I’ve used it several times. I’ll definately keep mine close by!

We bought an old house and are doing many projects ourself and this tape comes in handy. It is easy to use, even my son who is 8 is able to use it with ease. He enjoys helping with our projects. It is durable and extremely easy to use. We use it so much that we purchased two more, one for our multiple projects and one for a fathers day gift.

I gave three of these great items as a gift and I went back and bought one for myself, because I thought it was really a great product. We are remodeling a house and this tape measure is really great when one person is only available to measure. We gave one to our arcitech and he loves it! We gave another to our carpender and he says it is the handiest measure he has used!

This is quite the bargain and it is very cool. I’m enjoying it for it’s novelty factor. It’s a good tape measure too.

I think this Tape Measure is great, especially for working byYourself. I also believe it is small as can be made for whatit does, and to have the power it has.

I have to agree with some others. I didn’t realize it was so large, and wide. It’s what I need tho, as I am frequently working alone, & I am 64. I think my 15 y/o g-son will wear it out before I use it much.
