STANLEY Tylon 8m/26ft Pocket Tape Yellow/Black, 0-30-656

Stanley, best measures in the world for me. However, it is true, I went cheap on this one just because my longer living Stanley broke on me. Price cuts in somewhere of course - if you use a tape measure, say once a month for a few measures, fine. If you are a DIY and sometimes start working where you need a measure twenty or thirty times a day - or just like measuring things - do not get this as it is a brilliant price for a fairly priced piece, but you will feel its lack of quality. It measures, but does not offer a feel of quality or long term strength. However, in my view it should not as it costs far less than it looks - and that is fair compensation.

Excellent tape measure - reassuringly heavy/solid. Has lines and numbers on it, at a set distance apart, and the entire length of the tape. I found this useful for measuring things.

This is a very nice measure. However, in my view it does seem to have one or two flaws. The main one being the pocket or belt clip. I strained the very small clip getting it away from its packaging. So, I had to take it off and reform it. It now works OK. I do though think the clip could be a little more in line with the rest of the tape measure. The other thing that would be nice on a measure like this, is a magnetic end tag. Even some of the cheaper tape measures have a magnetic end tag. Just a thought really.

This is a sturdy measuring tape. The lock feature is easy to use. My only complaint is the clip at the end. When measuring the clip doesn’t hold onto whatever I’m measuring it just comes off. That’s a pain because I have to have someone hold it down when it’s supposed to hold on it’s on.

It’s a tape measure, so, it does what it says! However, does feel like quality and would recommend

Does what it should

Just what youd expect from a Stanley product. Really good solid tape.

This has been a really useful and sturdy tape measure. We found it particularly useful when viewing many houses, where it was just right for measuring the sizes of rooms.

Does the job handy that’s 8 m. Can’t get lock to stay on sometimes. Works well enough

This is a good quality product and at a very good price
