Review on πŸ“ Kutir Retractable Measuring Tape: Superior Test, Measure, and Inspect Accuracy by Justin Ewing

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good for metric units, but very bad for imperial units.

Well done but the hardest roulette I've ever read. The first 25ft Kutir tape ended up having no magnetism as advertised. There were 2 magnets present but not magnetic. Revane quickly replaced the roulette with a roulette with working magnets. Excellent customer service. Being right-handed, the metric side shows the user measuring from left to right. Great if you use metric units. The back is great by fractions of an inch, but again on the other side of the band for a right-handed person. You must read the curvature of the tape to see or make a mark. It seems that this is normal for a left-handed person, but in this case the numbers are inverted from right to left. I'll keep the tape measure to myself for using frames in non-standard positions where a lower scale would be handy, but other than that I hate this tape measure. Too bad they don't offer it in all imperial scales, both top and bottom.

Pros
  • Lots of positive vibes
Cons
  • Upgrade available
