📏 Stanley PowerLock Professional Measure 33-116 Review

This is a real bargain. My husband is a carpenter and he wanted to replace exactly this measuring tape. There is also a lock button.

Now I keep three of these around the house and in tool boxes. Right length (16ft), weight, good action, well done. The only downside is the packaging - to protect against theft from a hardware store. Have fun removing without cutting yourself!

And although I tried to operate on him, there was no hope. He was devastated. I bought this new one and was surprised that it was exactly the same as my old one. I have used it…

I wanted a new tape measure as the one I have is pretty flimsy. I ran a review of roulette and Stanley excelled in many categories so I bought it. However, if I had looked more closely or known that it was only imperial measurements (inches) I would not have bought it. I live in a world that requires both types of measurements, the fact that it's not a hybrid is disappointing. . As a result, 2 starts are lost.
