0-33-522 Powerlock Tape, 3m Metric Only

This is an extremely handy tape measure. It's not big, bulky or weigh a ton. I have several larger tape measures, but when I need something on the go to quickly measuring small distances, door ways, and other items ... I reach for this tape measure. Why? It's just convenient. Note: I don't really use it for anything larger than 5'... and if I need to use something where the tape measure needs to stay straight, I use my larger tape measures. The tape on this is not as sturdy - obviously due to the size and thickness of the material used. I've never had issues with the tape inside the unit either (winding or unwinding)... again keep in mind, don't really use this for anything under 5-8'. TLDR - Great for small projects, small item measuring, and the portability. I recommend - plus it's inexpensive.

This is a simple plain tape measure which is small so it fits in almost any drawer. It is not for remodeling projects, but is useful for measuring smaller distances around the house when you have a need to know how long something is. I still keep my serious Stanley tape measure with my tools, but this tape measure gets used more often for simple items.

These little tape measures are awesome and a must-have. The compact form factor makes it practical to carry around, toss in a small compartment or bag, or just drop in your pocket. At the same time, you still get an entire 10 feet to use (a lot more than most compact tape measures.) Like Stanley's other tape measures, there really isn't much to say. They are built well, will last for many years, have great functional design aspects. And given the price is often for under $5 SHIPPED, it's one heckuva great value.

The Stanley 33-115 10-Foot-by-1/4-Inch PowerLock Pocket Tape Rule is a great little tool with respect to its portability! There are so many times I've wanted to measure a piece of furniture, a wall decoration, or the length of some hardware item and have had nothing but my handspan by which to gauge the measurement. Frankly, my spouse's tape measures were all to big and bulky - even the shorter length ones - to warrant carrying them. Then I saw the reviews on the Stanley 33-115 10-Foot-by-1/4-Inch PowerLock Pocket Tape Rule when searching on Amazon for a new tape measure for my spouse. I ordered this product and am so glad I did. No more handspan measuring for me. The Stanley 33-115 10-Foot-by-1/4-Inch PowerLock Pocket Tape Rule is compact, lightweight and easy to use. It locks so that one can measure one length repeatedly. However, because of the width of the tape and its light weight, the tape is not rigid. This makes measuring something without assistance rather challenging. My spouse was less than happy with this item as a tape measure for inside our home; it was not something he would care to use for "real" measuring. I, on the other hand, loved its compact size and the fact I would no longer have to tote a large, heavy tape measure when shopping for something requiring measurement. However, I must honestly admit that it is difficult to measure longer items without assistance. The small hook at the tape's end does not stay placed well; as a result, the tape tends to flex so it is not always straight. I feel the Stanley 33-115 10-Foot-by-1/4-Inch PowerLock Pocket Tape Rule is a fine product and would recommend it for anyone who needs to carry a tape measure when shopping. However, it is not sufficiently rigid so that measuring items without assistance is easily accomplished. For that reason, I did not feel I could rate it a five star item.

This is a tape measure with it's primary design function as a pocket friendly Pi tape. Reviewers who complain about the tape's flat design and that it does not have stand-out ability does not understand what this tape's intended use is. This tape functions perfectly as a diameter tape and is comfortable in the pants pocket. It does not have a long hook, but again, this tape is meant to be wrapped around circumferences. It functions well enough to pull linear dimensions unless that is all you do. At one point this tape was part of my every day carry but a promotion eliminated the need to carry it any longer.

I order these 6 at a time and carry one in my pocket every day, all day. There are so many uses for a 10' tape that you need to carry one to understand. This thing is slim, slides right in your back pocket and disappears. The little steel hook on the end of the tape will break off after a couple years or so of use if you use it all the time like I do. My wife has been using the same one for 10 years and it has not broken off yet, so maybe it's because I use my 20 times/day doing home repairs and carpentry projects. I had one of these in my back pocket at my nephew's wedding and used it to measure clearance between tables. I give them as gifts. People look at me like I'm nuts when I hand them one in the package, then later tell me it's one of the best and most useful gifts they ever received. I'm down to my last 2, so it's time to order another half-dozen!.

Delivery was as expected. Cheap plastic enclosure with fake crome on it. Wanted it to carry in my pocket daily. It does exactly as expected but not great quality. On the plus side, it is perfect to put in a gas nozzle handle for keeping the fuel valve open when fueling the car. I bought 4 of these & will buy more when they wear out because they are cheap, work fine for a pocket tape measure & the gas nozzle lock is a great unexpected feature. I used to buy $18 by Zippo but they dropped the product line. Turns out this is a good alternative.

I've recently been doing a lot of house repair and renovation and this has come in very handy. I started carrying this around as I found myself needing to take measurements at fairly random times (moving furniture, comparing timber sizes, looking at other people's houses and material for inspiration, etc). It is very light, fits nicely in my pocket, and is sturdy (I had a different one that broke once I got to the end of the ruler). The only potential downside is that the narrower tape can make it less sturdy, but I've found it hold up pretty well for everything I measure, which tends to be 5 ft or less. My guess is that it would be easy enough to find a work around if it starts to flop at longer lengths. The trade-off of being lighter is more than worth it.

Gleitet gut/gut Gelagert und funktioniert!

Best tape I've used in my trade. I Still manually calculate diameter based on circuference out of habit

Belle qualité et double marquage juste parfait..... Ne pas laisser au soleil .. c'est su métal ! ça brûle 😂

Robusto e altamente scorrevole

Soy fan de las cintas métricas. Esta es una pieza muy bonita y estética.
