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

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.

I say for the price this is a decent, 4/5 star, measuring tape. The tape itself is pretty flimsy and gets pretty annoying when the length goes over like 20 inches. Would be a lower score but you get what you pay for. Does the job for measuring household items and areas.

Overall a good tape measure for the money. one con is it’s pretty flimsy.

Ive had this less than 2 months and not at all happy with the self-locking feature. It doesnt always stay and, the longer you extend it, the more likely it is to slip. You have to try and hold it down with one hand while marking your measurement with the other (which might be OK for approximate measurements, but definitely not for anything that has to be exact.) There is no manual lock - only a manual release. Ill find some use for this, but probably have to buy another tape.

My old tape broke and I bought this one because of the lock feature. The green color makes it easy to spot while getting mixed up in a project. The lock feature enables me to use it and not have to ask someone to hold it for me while measuring. Highly recommend it.

It help me measures things in my home. D Still tryingto measure for my thermal curtains for bedroom and living room. I have patio. So I hope this will help me get the right measures for my curtains.

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

Well made! Accurate!

I use a tape measure constantly throughout the day,and am hooked on the komeleon. Also got exactly what I ordered (not the newer yellow style,which Im not crazy about),with very quick delivery. Probably order a couple more soon. If the little stopper gets dirty it wont stay out as well,but all you have to do is take it apart and clean bottom side of stopper with alcohol and youre good to go. Only tapes I use!
