I bought my new tape measure after my last one finally gave out 40 years old! I love the fact it auto locks! What wonderful new trick this is and really helped putting together my flower beds!

Very happy with this tape measure. After multiple drops and abuse the tape measure still works flawlessly. Would purchase again!

It’s pretty good, light, sturdy and I like the lock mechanism just wish it would reel back up past 7ft

I love using these Stanley tape measures. I own several of these. My one complaint which is a super minor one, is how the first 3 numbers on the tape are smaller than the rest of the numbers. For me visually, this bugs the crap out of me. Other than that, works great.

I Bought This Excellent Tape Measure As I Was In Need Of A Good High Quality Tape Measure. I Do A Lot Of Home Improvements As I Just Aquired A Home That Needed Lots Of Repairs And Stanley Is High Quality That Will Last And Last. I Own Several Other Stanley Tools That I Use Daily With My Projects . I Highly Recommend That If Your In The Market For Any Tools Stanley Is The Tools To Choose .

Blade return not very strong. Hangs up easily

I’ve owned this tape measure for years and it’s still going strong. So many others have fallen apart or snapped. The worst is when they won’t hold up straight. Stanley is by far the best when it comes to tools.

I have been using Stanley tape measure for years and this newest model lives up to the expectations.

I bought this a few weeks ago to replace a older tape measure that refused to open anymore. I’m very pleased with my purchase. It’s on the smaller side at 25 feet, but that’s really all I need it for with my max rarely topping ten feet. I like how easy it is to use solo, it can be unwound for a while (around 11 feet) before the metal bends. It’s easy to use and lock into place and really all you need for DIY use.

I’d love it more if my hands would quit stealing it from me.

I like my FatMax so well, I think I now have 8 or 9!

AutoLock is not reliable, and there is not way that I can see to lock it manually.

This was a Christmas gift for my son in law. He loves it!
Martine Altenwerth (verified owner) –
Love it. Can’t get much better than this. One of my coworkers had one on a job, I used it, and had to buy one. My other three tapes are back in storage. Maybe stocking stuffers this year, who knows?

This is the only one I look for to buy, the auto lock works great and the numbers are clean and crisp.

I have gone through a lot of tape measures and this is by far my favorite. I bought mine 4 years ago and it’s still in great condition.
Eda Wiegand (verified owner) –
Great product for the job however, I would love the numbers to be bigger and brighter. That’s my only complaint. Overall, it does the job.
