Review on πŸ“ Durable Circumference Measuring Tool by Pedia Pals by Scott Goff

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Torn on second use

I have worked in pediatrics for many years and have used this type of tape measure many times. I've never had a problem with them tearing. I bought this to use for my first baby and after two very gentle uses on a newborn (remember I've used it hundreds of times with no problem) the tape measure broke. The amount of paper around the hole that the tape goes through is negligible and it is poorly laminated making it much less durable than regular paper or sewing tape. I didn't mind paying $3.99 for it, but I did pay $7.99. cool for shipping considering it's a very light piece of paper. So I basically paid the seller $12 for a piece of tape that didn't last twice. $6 per use? I may not have tested it thoroughly and there was already a structural issue with the one I received, but as far as I can tell it simply broke when the tape was carefully pushed through the hole. It sucks and I want my money back. Don't make the same mistake I did. Do not buy this item. You will regret it if you do this.

Pros
  • Measuring and Marking Tools
Cons
