Perfect for quick "close enough " long measurements

I use it for measuring landscaping, trench lengths, estimating pipe lengths, fence post placement, etc. It's fairly accurate and easy to use. Brake and reset on the handle are excellent. Sand works in the bike, but going fast on non-sandy terrain helps. I used it pretty roughly, folded it in half and tossed it in the back of a truck for about a month with no problem.

Pros
  • Great for a small house
Cons
  • Definitely a bad product

DO NOT BUY! best measuring and marking tools

This is very inaccurate. I put on a 100 foot belt and ran this wheel down the belt. At the 100 foot mark on the tape, this wheel read 90 feet 2 inches. 10 feet per hundred. This can be a very costly mistake for someone like me. I used it to survey roads and now that I see the inaccuracy I can't even figure out how much money we lost. DO NOT BUY! Edit, Kesson suggested replacing the block. No questions were asked. That's why I give customer service 5 stars.

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • So-so

Inconsistent readings

So this is an additional review... I've been using it for over a week now. This product has poor accuracy. If you measure the same links four or five times... The measuring wheel measures differently each time. And not a little. a lot of. I measured the same 30-foot distance on a smooth, dry surface, and the reading changed from 12 to 36 feet each time. This can be a costly mistake in my field as a reviewer. The wheel appears to be well built, but its lack of precision cost me valuable time and

Pros
  • Excellent overall performance
Cons
  • Generally ok but...

Quezon of Aurora, Illinois

I needed a mid-range wheel to measure my course, disc golf holes, and field work with my discs (driving field, putting, etc.). The feet are measured accurately. I like resting on the grip more than I thought I would. Super comfortable. Seems fragile, I will update if it breaks. You can also traditionally drop it on the rack itself. The brake seems useless for my needs. Another gadget that breaks over time. Good quality impeller. I know measurements at 300-400 feet and it's within a foot and…

Suitable for field work in dry weather.

This is a cute little measuring wheel - get the 1ft diameter version as it can be more accurate than the smaller one. I use this to measure trail distances and compare to GPS readings when satellite coverage is poor. For some reason, this works best downhill, but the measurements in the two directions (uphill and uphill) are pretty close. It seems to track fairly accurately over a known distance or in areas with good GPS coverage. In the Pacific Northwest, if it's wet and you use it on a forest

Pros
  • Sea of positive emotions
Cons
  • The list will be long.

This is a great tool for my use!

I use this measuring wheel a little differently than most people. I had major 360 back surgery 14 months ago and have been doing physical therapy to strengthen my back muscles ever since. It was very difficult to walk a distance without back cramps. First I used a walker, then a cane, but walking with a cane was always bad. After a recent trip to the airport where I used my suitcase to support myself while walking, I was able to keep up and didn't get tired because the rolling luggage helped me

High quality made for professionals

Best of its kind. I've been using it extensively since September so can't say it's worked for years but I've bought them in the past and they have lasted less than 30 days the way i use them. I find out the fence and wheel may be frayed - I throw it in the trunk between stops. It seems to be of a much higher quality than the other varieties I've used. It has a brake and the counter can be reset from the top handle. It folds well, but I never fold it, just leave it open. The footrest usually…

  • Good product for the price

I really wanted to like it! But its accuracy is terrible! (6 " model)

First off, let me say that I really like the form factor, design, convenience and features of this measuring wheel. However, the accuracy is terrible and makes me return this item. I laid out a 100 foot tape measure and then rolled this measuring wheel along the tape about 10 times, resetting the counter for each measurement. Each time the results were anywhere from 6-12 inches higher. In addition to the fact that the distance was always too large, the discrepancy with the 6-inch spread of the…

VERY SATISFIED CUSTOMER - EXCELLENT CUSTOMER SERVICE

I bought this RRT!2 device in February last year and have been using it almost every working day since I received it and it has given me excellent results in every respect. . About 2 weeks ago the reset button on the steering wheel stopped working and I couldn't reset the steering wheel to zero. I emailed Revain and they sent me the phone number for Quezon in Aurora, Illinois. I called the company, spoke to a very polite customer service lady, told her about my problem and asked what she could…

  • Absolutely amazing!
