- MjandNoriSolid, Reliable Tape Measure – Built to LastThis DeWalt tape measure is sturdy, accurate, and easy to use—perfect for everything from quick DIY jobs to bigger home projects. It has a nice weight to it, which makes it feel durable, and the standout length holds up well without bending.
The markings are large and easy to read, and the lock is smooth and secure. I really like the finger brake slot—it gives you good control when retracting the tape. Just a heads-up: it is a bit on the heavier side, but that also adds to the solid, professional feel.
Highly recommend for both beginners and pros looking for a quality tape measure. - john Delos SantosReliable and Well-Built Measuring TapeThis tape measure works great and feels very durable—exactly what you’d expect from DeWalt. It’s easy to use with smooth retraction and clear markings. The only downside is that it's a bit on the heavier side, but that also adds to its sturdy, professional feel.
- Markus StockGreat tape measure for the moneyThis Dewalt Tape Measure is a BIG upgrade from the cheap tapes I’ve always had. The tape itself is nice and rigid, it retracts well and holds itself up when being stretched over 6ft which is nice if you are measuring alone.
- GregBest measuring tapeThis can take a beating and still work perfectly. It’s well made, accurate measurements, and well worth the money.
- michael dybasGreat tape measure so farCompact. Read measurements on both sides of tape. Stable when extended. Good retraction. We'll see if it stands the test for time for an active retired guy.
- BryceIt's heavyVery good tape mesure, it has very good accuracy and the lock feature is good but it is heavy because it's 30 feet if you don't need the 30 feet for something I would just get like the 16' or 25' one!
- krisGreat tapesNice stiff tape, the break works good and they are easy to read. Nothing more I could want
- Douglas HathawayI like this tape measure.I've been using this tape for about a week now. Some of the reviews indicated that the hook on the end was loose and affected the accuracy of the ruler. I discovered I had exactly the same problem. However, upon examination I realized that if the rivets were set better, it would put it back into an accurate position. For that reason I used a peen hammer and was able to tighten up the rivets to where they do not slip anymore. It didn't take very much pressure and I did not hammer hard. Just a few taps and things tightened right up. It is now dead on accurate.
I like the heft and feel of the housing of the tape in my hand. I enjoy the separate finger break underneath and the regular locking mechanism works well. I also enjoy that I can stretch the tape out somewhere between 10 and 11 ft before it kinks and falls. That's much better than the other tapes that I've been using.
I hope that it will last as long as it feels like it will.
