Review on Komelon SL2816 PowerPro 16-Foot Self-Measuring Tape by Youssef Coolidge

This would be a great tape measure if the Revolutionary Design self-locking mechanism worked properly. Unfortunately, the tape is not held longer than 12 inches and is slowly retracting. There doesn't seem to be any way to adjust the tension to keep it in place. I remember it working better when I first bought it, but it has since seen very light wear well below what is considered normal wear and tear, so I cannot recommend this product.
