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

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.

This is a great tape measure. The tape stays in place when pulled out for measurements and retracts easily and quickly by pressing the release button. Recommend!

Really nice weight and feel and size.

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

Its perfect! Auto locks so you aint fighting the thing trying to get a measurement!

Happy with this purchase

Work well.

When you purchase a lower-priced product, your expectations are low, however, I was delighted to learn that the product performed as well as the highest-priced product. Looks good too.

After a few uses lock doesn’t work

Easy to use and read. Iike the automatic lock feature. Release button (unlock) is in a bit if an awkward spot but not a deal breaker by any means. For the money youd be hard pressed to find one better.
