Review on Enhance Accuracy and Visibility with Komelon 435HV High Visibility Professional Measure by Chp Rodgers

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Best Roulette I've Ever Owned

After pondering unnecessarily which tape measure to buy, stunned by all the conflicting product reviews that seemed to both praise and condemn every option available, I made my decision for this Komelon 25 feet high visibility professional tape measure. I am very satisfied as it is the best roulette I have ever had. Its positives include: 1.) A sturdy band that will support its own weight up to 7 feet before bending and falling. 2.) A lock that really secures the tape measure (when you push hard to lock it) with a coil spring system that pulls the tape measure in tight. 3.) Huge highly visible numbers that you can easily spot from a distance. 4.) A very handy and useful numbering system that gives you total inches as well as feet plus inches. For example, "75" also says "6F 3" (6'3"), and "102" also means "8F 6" (8'6"), etc. In the US, this additional alternative reading is much more important information than the alternate Reading in metric centimeters, as is often the case with other tape measures. (Honestly, when was the last time you measured more than a foot in centimeters?) 5.) Nice slim chrome case with grip ribs that feels nice, is easy to hold and isn't as bulky as those thick rubberized cases. If you're trying to decide which length to buy as it comes in 10, 12, 16, 25, 30 and 35 feet I would recommend 25 feet for typical home use. I say that because 25 feet is the minimum length at which you can get a 1 inch thick Bandblade (10, 12 and 16 with the narrower Bandblade). and a length of 30 or 35 feet makes the tape unnecessarily heavy for those who don't normally measure things that long.
