Komelon SL2816; 16 x 3/4 Self-Lock Tape Measure

I liked that it auto locked. But I noticed when I pulled it out to about 10 feet it was trying to suck it back in. So I had to hold with two hands so it wouldn’t cool back into itself

Maybe my fault for assuming the top rated tape measures would include metric measurements as well. Still not particularly easy to read. The build quality seems good enough for the price.

Nothing but pros for this tape. Tape is stiff enough you dont always have to have a second set of hands (when you cant hook onto anything). The tape will lock in the out position which is super handy. Tape overall is durable. Only down side, dont open it out past 24 9. It will fall apart.

No longer working the botton. Need a replacement. pls send a good one now. Thx A Solorzano, Amazon client in good standing

This works very well. It locks in place and then retracts easily

Love this tape measure. Easy to use thanks to the lock feature that actually works.

This measuring tape is easy to use and the color makes it easy for me to find. Very pleased

Ive been using these at work for several years now. The lock is different than most tapes, but I really like it. But the real reason I order these is because no one else at work has a bright green tape measure. Makes it easy to find mine.

was moving into my new home and needed to do all my measurements because the previous owner was uncontactable and did not provide details on the house. this tape was long enough to measure big space and small spaces. the lock is good, it automatically locks as you pull and the press of one button releases the to automatically withdraw the tape. extremely convenient as you do not need two people for a measuring job. not too sure if it is accurate - did not test that.

Have always used the self retracting tapes where you had to manually lock them. Its so great not having to worry about the tape snapping back because the end wasnt secure. It takes a little getting use to working backwards, pushing the button to extend / retract the tape, but it doesnt take long before you really appreciate the difference. The tape is easily readable. Not sure about how long the self locking mechanism will last, but so good, so far.
