Five Star Reviews: | 74% STANLEY, ALWAYS THE BEST!!!!!! October 27, 2017 As a Master Carpenter I only use Stanley tapes. They never fail to extend or fail to return. I can ‘throw’ eight/ten of tape out with a flick of my wrist on a roof or laying out a floor plan. WHIP it and it return automatically. I prefer the 30’ tape as it saves lots of walking. A good heavy duty construction tape.AND I MUST ADD AMAZON is the best for online purchases. Their web site is the ultimate choice for my purchases.RETURNS AND REFUNDS appears as important to Amazon as selling products. Classic quality June 1, 2017 This isn't the first Stanley tape I've ever purchased, but I'm only replacing my old one because the other rolled a little too far down a muddy hill for me to go to the trouble. If you're reading this because you're on the fence about what tape to buy then look no further. Yes, some styles are cooler, some tapes are wider, etc. If you just need a long lasting, quality tape for your tool box (which everyone should have) then this is the way to go. Way better than the old version. July 14, 2016 I am a plumber by trade and a tape measure is one of the most important tools in my tool box if not the most important. I like the newer version of the Stanley powerlock because of its size and unique shape which makes it a more comfortable tape to use on a daily basis. Stanley has great customer service along with Amazon having the best customer service in the game makes this purchase a no brainer. This is the 25 ft version which is the one I prefer. It has a free stand of exactly 8'3" I don't care what the description says if it does that is what u get. If u haven't purchased one of the new version of the power lock I think u will be pleasantly suprised. Great tool and a must have for any professional. Best value December 12, 2015 This tape has been on my tool pouch for almost 2 years now and it's still going strong. I have dropped it from the tops of ladders and off of rooftops and while it's pretty beat up looking there are no cracks in the casing and it still extends and retracts as smoothly as the day I bought it.The brake still slides effortlessly and locks completely.Numbers and dashes are easy to read.The belt clip on the back is very solid. I also have a Klein 25' tape that I loved initially but the clip broke off after only a month or so!It will extend free air to about 8' or so without "breaking" ...more rigid than other 25' tapes I've owned.I'm sure I'll have this on my toolbelt for many more years to come. The 'Inside Girl's' Saver of time and effort :) October 31, 2015 Very happy with this tape measure. I pulled my last one out too far and it wouldn't retract. I get ideas and need to measure if they will work before I start lugging furniture around the house and putting in a new rug and then it's too big/small for where I'd pictured it. This is perfect for a girl that needs to move things around and clean behind everything and get in new things without adding needless duress bc it didn't fit or something! Every girl needs a good tape! I am an inside girl not a construction worker :) The are hands down the best tapes out there December 15, 2014 The are hands down the best tapes out there, as a professional finish carpenter I use the everyday, they will last a long time. the size is "just right" to hold comfortably in your hand, I had new one malfunction and called Stanley about it, It was no problem they sent me another just like that no issue at all, I recommend this tape for all round work, sure it does not "stand out 8' as they say" but I have never found that to be a problem.###EDIT### After using the new Stanley tapes I bought I have to recant some of the good things I had to say about the tapes. I bought 3 of them, 2 of them have split 1/4 inch strips along the sides and then turn into razor blades! I had one break and cut my thumb. Not happy with the thinner blade material. I found one of the older tapes that look just like these and the tape was much thicker. Just like everything else you get less for the same money. I will be looking for a replacement to the "former great Stanley tapes". Shame because Stanley meant quality in my book. | 0% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet |
Four Star Reviews: | 10% Good Tape. Smooth operating, easy to read scale. January 5, 2016 Good tape. If I were buying another one, I would try to find one with metric scale too. Works Fine For Basic Household Uses December 1, 2015 Bought this for simple use around the house. Not a contractor or carpenter by any means, just needed something to measure things for hanging pictures and shelves and space planning, nothing extensive.The tape is indeed the 25' advertised, however, despite appearances, it is not metal of any kind. The measure housing itself is chromed plastic. It does seem pretty heavy duty though, so I wouldn't worry about that.Everything works just fine, but the reason that I docked a star was for the fact that the tape lock doesn't seem to work very well and never seems to go down all the way so the tape never gets firmly locked in place on my particular tape measure. Overall, for at least the basic household uses I need this for, it works fine, just with it would lock correctly. Nice and sturdy tape that extends out a good ways ... October 6, 2015 Pros: its a standard tape measure, you know what it does. Nice and sturdy tape that extends out a good ways before it bends, retracts nice and fastCons: the opening on the clip is a little large and as such seems to get caught on your pocket you got it clipped on. Being a glazier i carry a side tool pouch and the clip constantly gets caught on the tape measure holder strap so ill be using another tape measure. This thing is close to indestructible and one other added benefit given its bright stainless metal case it is very easy to spot April 25, 2015 This is a positive recommendation for any other fellow clumsy home remodelers that too often drop their tapes while working overhead or on ladders dreading the bounce off the floor of the more frequently plastic case tapes that result in a cracked case or damaged internal tape mechanism that causes problems with future extraction and release back into the case. This thing is close to indestructible and one other added benefit given its bright stainless metal case it is very easy to spot in the jumbled tool bucket or in a pile of tools when you need to find it right away. Small things really but on top of being well built and reliable given the many tapes I own I find myself using this one most frequently. As others have noted, the eight foot stand-out seems ... December 10, 2014 As others have noted, the eight foot stand-out seems to be an exaggerated claim for advertising purposes - six feet at most on the one I got, fresh out of the box. Anything longer and it folds over. I expect this will be quite sufficient for what I will be using it for. Seems very robust, and the retraction mechanism is quieter than usual. I'll update this review if it breaks on me - I've broken lots of tape measures before. | 0% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet |
Three Star Reviews: | 5% ... and then after a month the mechanism isn't working like it should July 14, 2017 Initially retracted well and then after a month the mechanism isn't working like it should. Still measures like it should so I can't be that mad. Standard tape measure. November 12, 2016 Standard Stanely tape measure. The catch on the end is smooth so sometimes it tends to slip off easier than aome of the other tapes I've used. Worked alright for a while. Let it retract too ... April 10, 2016 Worked alright for a while. Let it retract too quickly one time and the the end of the tape twisted and creased, but that was my own fault. However it does say something about the durability of this product. Definitely wouldn't buy this tape again. Do yourself a favor and spend the extra money for a fat max. Not Stiff February 12, 2015 I'm still looking for the Power Lock tape measure with a stiff tape like they used to make. I thought the rounded design may signify the return of the stiff tape......but alas, no. It works good for little jobs August 10, 2014 It works good for little jobs. Its not that strong so it doesnt extend out too far before the tape becomes flimsy. | 0% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet |
Two Star Reviews: | 4% bought 2, one came with faded numbers. Was ... September 9, 2016 bought 2, one came with faded numbers.Was reading the review before purchasing and notice this came up time to time. Works, but not in "new" condition July 29, 2016 Works fine, but the one we got appeared to be used. Covered in dust, some weird brown marks on the housing. Scuffs marks and scratches. Product is fine, but they probably should not have shipped this one as a new item. The powerlock doesn't work well, May 29, 2016 The powerlock doesn't work well, and there is 1/16" at least of slop on the front clip that makes measurements innacurate Meh! July 11, 2015 If stretched to long lengths it simply folds over, and the stopper that is supposed to keep the tape in place (once the actual tape has been extended) doesn't work well. I was tempted to return this but I couldn't be bothered so I'm simply using it despite this annoyances. Ruined by poorly-designed blade lock April 1, 2015 Good tape measure except for the blade lock. The action on the blade lock is very stiff, and the material/shape of the button exacerbates the problem. Would not buy again. I bought two of these to replace the crappy tape measures that I had March 12, 2015 I bought two of these to replace the crappy tape measures that I had. I assumed that it would be of good quality. One of them already won't stay locked after the first time I used it. Won't be buying this again! | 0% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet |
One Star Reviews: | 7% Hope you don't want to measure anything September 21, 2017 Just went to use them and not all the measurements marks are on the tape. Just noticed it and can't return them because it's too far out When I tried to mark something at the 10" mark ... September 5, 2017 When I tried to mark something at the 10" mark, I noticed that the tape measure is not properly marked. There should be a long line running right between the 1 and the 0. All the other numbers seem to be properly marked. See photo. Unsatisfactory March 16, 2016 Poor quality. It twists and is hard to extend for a long distance. The numbers are too small and difficult to read. The PowerLock does not work at all!!! Very disappointed. Stanley used to make better quality....that is why I purchased this brand. JUNK -- WON'T LOCK December 21, 2015 Stanley quality is no longer what it once was. It will not lock and hold your inside measurement. PoorLock June 11, 2015 "PowerLock" should be called "PoorLock." Stopped working after 5 or 6 uses; nearly cut my finger due to the locking mechanism failing on me during a project. Terrible recoil and the tape it self broke after 1 ... November 11, 2014 Terrible recoil and the tape it self broke after 1 week of light use. I bought 3 so we'll see how the rest hold up... | 0% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet |
