CRAFTSMAN Tape Measure, 25 ft, Retraction Control and Self-Lock, Solid Chrome Finish, Rubber Grip (CMHT37325S)

There is not a lot to say about a tape measure, presuming that it is convenient to use, easy to read, and smooth and reliable in extension and retraction. This one meets all those goals. Usefully, the tape is stiff enough that it can be extended without support to six feet, maybe a bit beyond, without collapsing. The best feature is the lock/unlock lever, which is the entire bottom surface of the unit and therefore doesnt have to be awkwardly hunted for, as do the buttons on the other tape measures of my experience.

The price was good

Works very well. Price was great.

Does the job

Typical tape measure. Works for me at home.

Solid quality and highly durable

Solid build quality, feels heavy and the way the tape measure releases feels great.

Works around the house as needed. Its a Craftsman, so what more is there to say?

Waste of $. Tape gets stuck and does not retract back. Bad product.

Craftsman is classic. Gets the job done for cheap. It measures things.
