Compact Tape Measure - 1" x 25'

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently got this a couple of weeks ago and I'm so happy that I did. I've been trying my hand out with some DIY products and the tape measure I had wasn't that great. It was pretty old and beat up, but the great thing about it is that it's Milwaukee brand. When I had the chance to get this newer tape measure I was so happy. I know it's got yo be a good and solid brand because the one I was using was my grandfather's and it was old, but still in working condition. So I know I will have this one for years to come. Definitely a keeper. *I recieved this product in exchange for my honest opinion and review *

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This 25' compact Milwaukee tape measure is perfect for household use. An easy to read ruler which shows the fractions, not just tick marks. Fractional tape measures are a huge time saver for those of us who don't use them all the time. A smaller size, which is a much better fit for us women. A steel belt clip is mounted on the back side and you can even hook it to a lanyard if so inclined. An easy slide switch to lock the ruler in place and it's bright red which means I can easily locate it. Please be advised, this is not a tape measure for left handed people. As a lefty the numbers are upside down, so I sometimes use it awkwardly in my right hand. This is where the nylon blade protection comes in handy, whether you're a lefty using it in your right hand or just accident prone.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this for my husband to replace one that I apparently managed to lose. This tape measurer seems very heavy duty to me atleast. I will admit I don't know much about tools in general so that is just my opinion. He was quite impressed with.the fact that it can stand out 9 ft, I think that's what he said. It's exactly like the packing said but don't try anything over 9 ft it will fall. The lock button is a little touchy but just have to be sure it's fully locked.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As someone who has had a tape measurer snap back at them, injuring their fingers, I REALLY appreciate the locking feature on this tape measure. It’s automatic, so I can measure super long spaces by simply extending it out, and it holds in place. Retract button brings it right back in. My husband really likes the brand, so it has been repurposed for his tool needs, but I steal it back whenever I need to use a tape measure.

Gerat tape measure I use it quite often it has become my go to tape over my other brands, we won't mention any names. I like the large number scale as the older I get the worse my eye site is getting. I just had an incident my Milwaukee tape got ran over. It still works just the case is damaged is there any I can purchase a new case, please advise

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was in need of a compact tape measure and was very excited to add this one to my tool collection. This is a great size for just about any project that needs to be done in a home or office. It is very durable and reliable. A very well made product, by the Milwaukee brand is something that I expect to last a very long time.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] There are several things that I think make this a superior tape measure. The tape is coated with nylon which makes the edges less sharp and safer to use. The tape is wider than many I've used and the numbers are easy to read.  I like having a hook on the end that's strong enough to score wood! That's a huge bonus for me.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The thing I like most about this tape measure is that it shows the tiny measurements as well as the large ones. Think down to the 1/8. It is durable, sturdy, and the numbers are easy to read. The belt clip is a nice little feature as well. Over all I was pleased with the ease of use and durability of this product.
