Broke after fifth use

Do not buy this tape measure. I like the easy to read numbers on the tape. The product itself seems durable, but the ribbon retract function broke on me after about 5 uses. Never abused. Used in normal situations. Just broken and won't retract making it unusable. waste of $$. That's the Craftman name for you. Now it's garbage.

Pros
  • One year sample
Cons
  • No instructions

That's the master, what more can I say.

I have used the Craftsman tape measure my entire life. I've been surveying homes for flooring for 40 years and they have never let me down. I always carried a backup tape with me, just in case, and if it broke, all I had to do was take it to my local Sears store and get a new one. I hope that level of service will continue with this new one after I have retired.

Pros
  • Price
Cons
  • Not sure

My new favorite roulette!

I do a lot of art and design and this tape measure is my new favorite! I love the auto-lock feature and find the white background a lot easier to read than the traditional yellow. Also, the inch spacing is actually marked as 1/8, 1/4, 1/2, etc., which I've never seen before. This may not be appropriate for a general contractor or someone in construction, but for someone who does small woodworking projects and often makes their own canvas frames, this mark is AMAZING and makes mark measurements…

Pros
  • Quality workmanship
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging

Self-locking with lock and unlock button

Love the handling of this tape measure, 16 foot self-locking workshop. Self-locking just right, but unlike other self-locking ones I've had, this one has a clearly labeled "lock" and "unlock" toggle button at the top. On my old self-locking, I kept pressing the unmarked button and releasing it when I didn't want to, as I often switch between self-locking and manual locking strap. My old one didn't have any "lock" mode other than force-locking self-locking either. This style Craftsman uses is…

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • Slightly torn

Tired of dealing with annoying fractions and conversion problems. Wasting time converting projects from all over the world into an archaic lineage? It's 2021 on the calendar, so you know it's time to join the 20th century. That's right, the 20th, because the rest of the world switched to METRIC decades ago! Move with the times, strap a real tool to your belt and at the same time fully immerse yourself in working with metric and standard units. Your rational mind and far-sighted thinking…

Pros
  • nice thing
Cons
  • I don't remember, but there was something

One Wasn't Enough

When I was in my 40's I lost the ability to see up close. I bought 6 pairs of reading glasses and scattered them around the house. Well I just got this tape measure for my 50th birthday and now I want to place 6 of them around the house. I have several roulettes of different brands, styles and ages. My favorite used to be the 25ft Self-Locking Comelon, but it had standard sizes on one side of the band and metric on the other. I had already found that I couldn't see anything that wasn't within…

Pros
  • Absolutely Amazing!
Cons
  • Not bad, but...
