Awesome heavy duty tape measure. It has a little heft to it and it appears to be really well made.

It’s a very good measuring tape, but the only thing that makes it bad it’s that is so big to grab.

The Milwaukee 35 ft x 1.3 in Gen ll stud tape measure with a 14 ft reach is a very handy tape to have on the work site, whether the tape is being used by a construction worker of a DIYer. This tape measures in inches, and in feet and inches measurements, providing the measurement system a person prefers. The measurement can also be read on the front and the back of the tape. The back side also a 1/4 scale that can be used when drawing or reading a blueprint. The sliding blade lock moves easily to the lock position. The only problem I have experienced, is that,( being on the heavy side), I use this tape for all my preliminary measuring, and then use a smaller tape, while doing the actual construction.

This thing is a beast! Like you, we use tape measures all day and every day. Some are solid and some are light. This one is more than solid … it’s 14oz of beast-mode measuring tape. The engineers at Milwaukee have put everything they could think of in this and it shows. The tape is wide, stiff, easy to read and flexible. Archeologists are going to find this in a million years and wonder what kind of artifact it is … but it will still work. If you want great and don’t mind a little extra weight, this is the best of the best.

Previously owned the wide blade version from milwaukee, after wearing that one down decided to go for the stud model which is supposed to last longer, etc. The overall feel of this tape is much better, is retraction is smoother with just the right amount of retracting force. Other tapes I feel are too fast and therefore hurt my fingers more often. Was hoping it would be smaller but it ended up being bigger.

Good, strong, sturdy tape measure. I like the inclusion of the finger stop on the underside of the tape meadure, this allowed me to manual control how fast the tape retracted, I was able to hold it in place as well. This is useful if thelock becomes damaged or if you want to make a micro adjustment . The numbers on both sides of the tape measure allows me to easily triangulate an area, as I can clearly identify point B, where the tape bends. This is a heavy duty tape measure, I placed it in my pocket of my raincoat and it felt like it was going to tear right through it so I quickly took it out and carried it in my hand The Stud tape measure has a honeycomb type design, this allows for a better grip than the other non stud tape measures from Miwaukee

The Milwaukee 16 ft. x 1.3 in. Gen II STUD Tape Measure with 17 ft. Reach is a very sturdy tape measure that will definitely withstand a lot of beating or even more day to day use. The tape itself is very rigid and moves very smoothly in and out of the outer shell of the tape measure. Markings are present on both the top and bottom of the tape and smaller increments are featured on either side of it. The clip on the side is very strong and is also removable and replaceable if it does in fact fail. The lock for the tape is also very strong and grips onto the tape very well and is also very easy to lock and unlock. All in all, it’s very well built and is a perfect tape measure.

Fantastic easy to read tape measure. Not sure about the 17′ reach but it does go pretty far before folding. Measurements on both sides are a bonus

I had recently spent a few dollars less and purchased a competitive brand tape measure with similar length and width. Within a short time the tape locking mechanism completely failed. I gave it to my wife to use in the house. Now I have a tape I can depend on!

Over the years I have always preferred the heavy duty tape measures especially the longer ones as they made my job easier in both interior design and construction both of which I have had over 30 years experience in. The first thing I noticed and had to try is that the tape would extend at least 14 feet without breaking over. It did as stated to my delight. I soon discovered that on the underside near the beginning that it had a 12 inch 1/4 – 1/2 Architects scale which really is a needed part of a well thought out useful working tape. Big but well made and designed to help get the job done.

Exactly what we needed.

The fit and finish of this tape measure far and above exceeds the prior tapes I’ve used. The groove underneath the tape where you can stop and hold with a finger is great. The standout is significantly straighter and stronger than all of the competitors. (I tested them all myself). Best tape I’ve used. 🙂

Holds up when extending up to 11’ without someone holding the other end. Nice and tough for constant use in measuring and cutting wood. Good tape measure overall.

This has all the makings of a great tape measure. Only have used it for a week. So far so good.

Big improvement over the original STUD tapes. I like this a lot. It’s a bit more compact but still a substantial tape. I love the ant-tear coating, and this has a 14 foot standout – impressive for a 16 foot tape. If I’m careful I can get 14 feet 4″ before it snaps. The numbers are easy to read and printed on both sides. There is an architectural scale on the back. I’m not about to test the 80 foot fall claim, but I’m definitely not concerned about tossing this around
