> 3 dayI abuse tape measures like truckers and ladies of the night, this Stanley has lasted through some heavy use, I dropped it in a bucket of polyester resin. Then threw it in some acetone for a few minutes and it still works and is legible so will buy another once this one walks off.

> 3 dayI bought the 8 metre tape. As others have said. This doesnt wind itself back in as good as it should. The problem, I think, is that its a LONG tape measure squeezed into a small case so not much room in there for a decent rewind-spring. It would have been much better if theyd made the case bigger and fitted a decent spring in there. Others have said that its flimsy. I cant say Ive noticed that to be honest. I just dont stand there trying to see how far I can stick it out before it bends. Ive got better things to do. But with such a long tape in such a small case I can imagine the makers did use a thinner metal to get it all in there. But I havent noticed that but, as I said, it would have been better in a bigger case. All in all though its an average tape. Maybe with a bit of use itll start winding back in a bit smoother. If it breaks then it didnt cost a lot of money. If I was buying another I wouldnt buy this one.

Greater than one weekIve been looking for a bulk amount of these kind of tapes for my welding/fabrication business at an affordable price. My local hardware shop has these for €18.99 EACH !!! I couldnt pass a pack of 4 tapes for the price given on amazon. They are built strong and the increments on the tape are very clear , accurate and I know will last years without wearing out. Would recommend these to anyone looking for a great quality tape at a very affordable price.

> 3 dayUnfortunately i receieved the product and it has a crease about 7 inches into the tape, meaning everytime i use it for a larger measure it doesnt hold steady. Very annoying, making it virtually useless. There is no contact seller option from my account.

> 3 dayGreat sturdy tape measure. I was fed up of waiting for my boyfriend to bring his tools and tape measure home so I decided to buy myself some.

> 3 dayNice 8m tape measure. But why are the (predominant) measurements in inches? I thought “System Internationale” has been with us for almost 50 years.

> 3 dayHow they can make a profit selling these at this price Ill never know. Quality tape measure. Nice and bulky and very wide tape meaning it stays rigid over longer lengths. Rubberised textured finish provides good grip. Highly recommended.
