📏 Revolutionary Milwaukee Magnetic Wide Blade Measure: Boosting Precision and Efficiency in Measurements Review

The hook isn't as big as I'd like, but it's stiff. Rewinding is pretty slow, but it helps keep the magnet on what you're measuring. The coating on the blade comes off after a week. Nice and compact for a 25ft band. The tape isn't the most popular, but it's not bad. 1 month review: it stopped rewinding itself, the blade is bent in several places, it is no longer noticeable, I return to Dewalt roulettes. I have not abused this tape, but it is not suitable for normal construction use.

The best feature for me is the magnetic hook. I cannot stress enough the importance of a magnetic hook when working with ferrous metals. It's like having an extra hand when you need it most! Saves a lot of frustration trying to measure things yourself. It's also amazing how far this tape measure lasts before collapsing! The ribbon is also bright with vibrant colors and very easy to read, and I love that I can control the rewind speed with the lock button and my finger to slow down the process…

If you need to measure a 2"x4" board for cutting, good luck. The tab on the end does not stay on the end of the board. The ribbon is bent leaving less than 1/8 inch to catch on the end of the board. The only way to counteract the slipping is to tape a piece of metal to the end of the board and then the magnet will hold the tape. Otherwise you should get another tape measure Also the range is less than 7ft wall so no one is holding the end of the tape or you can tape a piece of metal to the side
