Inexpensive but works

This rim tape doesn't look like it will last long but it's good for homework. I use it to measure hiking routes and plan the car show I'm organizing. It's normal with things like this. The wheel is held to the frame with a plastic pin, which is probably the weak link in this thing. Don't take it if you need ultra-precise measurements. I tested it with a 100 foot tape measure that I placed on the ground and the wheel always read between 101 and 102 feet.

Pros
  • Excellent construction
Cons
  • Some bugs

Worth the price.

I call it my Rolly Polly car. Originally bought due to a wiring dispute with a neighbor and thought it might be an easy way to show them they were wrong (they were wrong btw). But now I use it all the time. 5 friends have also borrowed it for everything from surveying the garden, retaining wall, location at the wedding venue to setting up office desks at work. Of course I get my $18.49 from it. I tested it before first use to see how accurate it is. You just have to know where it starts and…

Pros
  • Top marks for grip and durability from testers
Cons
  • Weight

I love my little bike!

Love my little steering wheel! I'm like the other reviewer who said "I can't pay power tool prices for a wheel counter" and I don't blame him! It has an aluminum telescoping handle and the height when fully extended is great so I don't have to bend down to use it and I'm 6ft 2in tall. Based on the design of the product and the dry climate I live in, I don't see any issues with rust or grease. The price is right and it also doubles as a dog back scratcher! Very strong and durable on rough…

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • Appearance

Cheap product Generic

I am a physical therapist and have used this to calculate my patients total distance. He always stood on firm and level ground. It lasted for a while. But after a few weeks I had to glue it to the full telescope length because the clips that allow you to shorten it broke off. I ended up using it for another 4 months but eventually it became too loose and wobbly. I bought another measuring wheel for about $10 more and it lasted over a year and I still have it. This product was ok for the price…

Pros
  • Cool product
Cons
  • Volume

I thought it was a great purchase and loved how it worked until I found it extremely not was accurate. The measurements were wrong by more than 10%, making it unusable for us. I bought it to measure the boundaries of our property and area and it was so far from accurate that none of the measurements could be used even as an approximation. We compared this to the more expensive wheel that Comcast uses for their measurements and their wheel was more accurate, so I think you get what you pay for…

Pros
  • That's great
Cons
  • No instructions

and a little shorter than I would like. I would not consider this item.

After a few years of use, usually a few weeks a year. I have found that the meter often gets stuck and the device stops measuring. I found myself measuring things many times with different results. I hit it yesterday trying to pull the counter off and the stem broke and after spending a couple of hours measuring again I'm glad it broke and I'll move on to something better. ------------- ----ORIGINAL REVIEW----------------The retractable part of the handle is poorly made and a bit shorter than…

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • I vaguely remember
