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

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

great functioning tape measure tool ,can compete with the big boys at 1/2 the price. 5*****

Love this tape measure. Easy to use thanks to the lock feature that actually works.

For some reason, tape measures grow legs and walk away in my household. My father and I both have our own collections of tools, and when something needs measuring, neither of use can seem to find a tape measure! I got this one to keep in my Husky roll away work station. I reasoned that its bright green color would help it stand out among my old black tape measure and my fathers chromed units. And stand out it does! Every time Ive needed a tape measure Ive been able to easily locate this one. The automatic brake on this tape measure has taken some getting used to. The only other auto-braking tape measure my father and I have used is the old motorized Black and Decker unit he got as a gift years ago, and it too has grown legs and walked away. As I use the tape more though, Im growing to like the auto brake more. Its nice to quickly pull one or two feet of tape out and not worry about getting whipped by the tape when I invariably forget to set the lock. But that raises a question: How durable and reliable is the brake in this tape measure? Ive only had this tape measure for a month and it only sees slight occasional use, so I cant answer that question. The whole unit feels well made though, so I hope that the brake is just as solid.

It works

Work well.

Well made! Accurate!

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

This is a decent product for the money. I like the fact that it automatically holds whatever length of the tape measure you pull out, without any effort from me. Thats the first one that Ive owned that does that. Im satisfied with it.

This seems to be quality. It certainly feels like it. Weve had one in our office for about two months now and no issues. I certainly dont mind buying more of these to spread around the office at this cost. Far less expensive than my craftsman and still does the job. Every one likes the yellow tape as well.
