GREAT TAPE MEASURE
on December 20, 2025
Posted by: STEVE 19
I bought this tape measure several years ago and it has always performed well. It's easy to read and has all of the additional markings, such as 16 inch centers, etc. It was part of a 2 pack, so i have two of them. You can never have too many tape measures.
Has been my favorite for over a decade now. It only lasts about a year but I’m using it 5-6 days a week. I made the mistake of buying a different brand that was a bit more expensive and I hated it. This one just works.
An American Classic. With hundreds of tape measures on the market, and of the many in my possession, i typically use this one more frequently than any of the others. Easy to use, easy to read and lightweight, make this tape a favorite.
Journeyman tile setter, fat max is what everybody likes but at the end of the day, the old studly Stanley can’t be beat. Keep a 25’ for lay outs and oh crap, wheres my tape measure and a 15’ on my hip for cuts and daily plans. All these other high end tapes fail from exposer to cements and dust.
When it comes to tape measures Stanley is the absolute best. I've owned several and have had this one since I first started my DYI projects. It was inexpensive but certainly not cheap. It still works like it did the first time I used it, and I believe it will be working when I leave this life. I just hope they have Stanley products in Heaven!
