tape measure disappointed me as soon as I opened and pulled out the tape measure. It's the thinnest metal I've ever seen, and the shiny surface of the tape makes it difficult to read in a well-lit store. After all, I have to be precise in my office. The tape measures are offset by about 1/32 inch or so and will not match on any of the three tapes. That's more than I can handle with the laser measurement systems I use in my workshop. They fit comfortably in my pocket which is the main reason I bought them but given the great reviews I received ahead of me I never expected this level of quality. I would say for home use only.
