Review on πŸ“ Milwaukee Stud Tape Measure 25: Accurate Measurement Solution for Stud Detection by Kevin Taharka

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Milwaukee makes excellent tools, however.

I really wanted to love this tape measure. But the ergonomics and weight killed her for having a chance. does not fit in the tape measure pocket on the tool belt. Just buckle up. Not to mention, this thing looks like a 5-pound brock strapped to your waist. If you're a pro and lift a lot of heavy things throughout the day, your belt shouldn't be like this. It doesn't feel very comfortable in the hand during use. I think they designed it to withstand a fall from 80 feet because they know it's going to fall a lot given the size. Use 25-foot Milwaukee magnetic tape in place of this tape. It's a much more convenient size, same features as a cleat, plus more 'ie' marking on the bottom of the strap, larger hook, 1/4 and 1/8 Architect's scale.

Pros
  • RETRACT: Finger stopper controls tape retraction
Cons
  • Not bad, but...
