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

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

Don’t have anything bad to say about this tape measure. It’s easy to use!!

This seems like a very good, very sturdy measuring tape. The packaging is ingenious and wonderful. My arthritic hands are so grateful.

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.

Excellent tape. Love the auto lock feature. Would have given it 5 stars if it had both inch and centimeter reading on it.

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 have been a carpenter for over 40 years and have purchased many of these tapes in the past. In fact they are the only tapes I have purchased for quite a while. They arent perfect because as some of the lower ratings have mentioned they will get quirky and not work as intended but because of the amount of different brands of tape measures that I have used in the past these ones hold up for the longest time .and are compact enough to sit in your nail belt without the bulk and weight of many other brands.

Useful for house projects

Needed an affordable tape for an occasional-use toolkit and fell in love with this. The locking mechanism is far more functional than traditional tapes, logical. It eliminates the needed to lock, saving time and effort.

Have been super reliable and have had my old tapes for seven years or so and finally killed my 25 footer so got the same tape and am sure to be good for seven more years. Woodworking, mechanic, lumber cutting
